• Problem with doors

    From 2000man@46:1/116 to All on Sat Mar 10 13:58:06 2018
    Hello All,

    This probably should be apparent to me but it's not. I've been a use of BBS's for a long time.and have been a sysop during the 90's. I am setting up a win32 based Telnet only Mystic BBS currently.

    The problem I keep running into is.. some of the doors/utilities I'm trying to install will give me a "no carrier" and close the door. I'm using a fossil driver (netfoss) and have even tried /FD in the bat file calling the door.

    Any questions, advice?

    Help?

    Might just be something to do with each door's setup. You have to check each door's install doc to see specifically what each one wants in regards to detecting the fossil driver.

    I ran into issues with them from time to time as well, and it was usually because I didn't RTFM thoroughly =)

    Hello,

    I do read the manuals, problem is some of the doors i've found have next to no documentation, or aren't in english for the most part. Sadly I might have to give up on some cool freeware doors and utils.

    Such is the life..

    Thanks anyway.

    I personally do not have any expertise with doors with Mystic You may
    reach out to Hawk Hubbard (Capt Hood) over at blackflag.acid.org:23 ... PIRHANA Under The Black Flag. He may or may not be able to give you any insight on
    the door issues you are having. Be sure to join the facebook group Pirhana - Under the Black Flag if you are on it. It's good stuff. Get dem doors fixed!! lol

    Hope this helps.

    Sadly, the computer I was using to build the bbs on died. Won't even post. I do believe in fate and I have been spending a lot of time working on the BBS and avoiding responsibilities. So I'm giving up on it. I only came back out of a nostalgic romantic feeling. So I will still lurk the message bases in my to favorite BBS's I found during my return but, I'll leave this for people with stronger wills and more spare time.
