* EleBBS Support List

Yeah, as the type 7 menu option shows, I am passing the node number, and the
batch file should see it as %1.  It's weird.  Changing the path was
something I just threw in there.  I've removed it now, but now I've got the
unwilling telnet server.

Hi Marty,

NetFossil needs either the node and socket handle to be passed on the
command line, or it needs to find the door32.sys in the current directory.

I'm guessing its not finding the later...

Since your nf.bat file is switching to the node directory, It seems that
EleBBS itself was not running from the node directory to begin with.
This means that the door32.sys was created in some other location,
and when you switch to the node directory it causes Netcom to not
find the door32.sys in the current directory.

You can confirm that this is going on by adding a "pause" to your batch
file, and while its paused, open another command prompt and see if
the door32.sys really exists in the node directory. I bet its not.

Assuming this is the problem, you should remove the CD command
from NF.bat, and place that in the batch file that starts elebbs.exe
from gamesrv.

Regards,  Mike
