Well, its been a few years since I setup Door Programs in Maximus, so I'm
looking for a little help. I grabbed a copy of Trade Wars, set it up in 
c:\doors\tw.

I then created a .bat file called "tw.bat," and have it sitting in c:\max.
The .bat file lines are:

cd\doors\tw
copy c:\max\misc\dorinfo1.def c:\doors\tw\dorinfo.def
set twnode=1
tw2002.exe
exit

Local logon tests passed, but, when I telnet in, and try to run Trade Wars
(using Hyperterminal), I don't "see" trade wars crank up, but
when I monitor 
the node, I see trade wars asking for my name. I setup trade wars to use
dorinfo.def, and told it the drop file was in c:\doors\tw.

Should not I see trade wars run in the hyperterminal window instead of the
BBS's window. I guess what I am asking is, will users be sent directly into
trade wars. 

Last note, I run a telnet only system using a registered copy of COMP/IP.
