    You got it. Looking like the dosemu2 switch will indeed happen tomorrow.

    I think dosemu2 is the way forward from here on out. Luckily, seems to be more examples and docs for BBS setup, more than there was a couple years ago...

    Nice. If you can take some notes and post them somewhere with the links
    as well. It would be good to have an updated, known working set of
    how-to for some of these things.

    Thanks again for the service!

    So, I've been testing a migration to dosemu2, and so far so good on
    the test
    server! I'm going to push this live tomorrow, so there may be some
    down time.
    I'll also test every game to see if there's any problems.

    Good luck with the update

    Thank you. I followed/used nelgin's instructions for configuring Synchronet with dosemu2, so far working flawlessly, other than having to change all the startup directly file paths, as they were using forward slashes vs backslashes, ha! I guess it worked fine that way under dosemu, but not dosemu2.

    I'm going to take some more time and test every game just to be sure.
