but it isn't the door causing the problem... it is pkzip and pkunzip that
are... the door is likely not even running at that point... oh, wait...
unless it is shelling out to (un)archive interbbs game packets... hummm...

FWIW: there's only like three changes i have ever had to make to get dosemu
running and stop it from complaining... one was allowing access to the 0
range of memory, another was forcing the keyboard, and the last was ummm...
i can't remember but i think it was something else similar to the setting i
had to make for the memory... one of those system.ctrl things... not
anything systemd related... hummm... oh well...
