  • Setting Up DOS DOORs

    From Jordanjm@VERT/JORDANJM to All on Saturday, June 20, 2026 23:13:53
    I have DOSEMU2 installed.
    I have sbbs/ctrl/dosemu.conf
    sbbs/ctrl/sbbs.ini use dosemu set to true

    What else do I need to do?
    I am using SBBS on Linux.
    I've tried a wrapper script.

    I have dosemu and fdpp installed.

    Synchronet comes with its own drivers, are you using 32 bit or 64 bit linux? have you gone through the wiki?

    I'd say you need to start by reading these and following the
    instructions:

    https://wiki.synchro.net/howto:dosemu2

    https://wiki.synchro.net/howto:dosemu

    Then ask more specific questions here if you have any.

    Do you happen to have dosemu setup correctly in your configuration dirs? Usually in /etc/dosemu/* or /etc/conf.d/dosemu or close to it?
