   I haven't tested many actual 16bit setups; rather, I looked at the door32.sys   
   that your program spits out and I don't see how it could possibly allow you to   
   run door32.sys games through a telnet server like Com/IP, NetModem, etc.   
      
   I also ran some tests using 32-bit BBS software with built-in telnet servers,   
   but setting them up to pass a door.sys instead of door32 and then running your   
   converter.  I was unable to get this to work.   
      
   I'll try downloading Netmodem and TriBBS and see if I can reproduce your   
   results.

   That's very interesting -- I'm the author of Tournament Trivia, and I can tell   
   you with complete certainty that its doorkit only supports Socket I/O.  I   
   cannot see how your converter would allow it to run on 16bit BBS software...   
   can you explain how/why your converter would work?   
      
   Are you certain that Tournament Trivia didn't just open up in Local Mode, with   
   no output to the remote user's telnet client?

   This doesn't make any sense -- Door32 games cannot communicate with FOSSIL   
   drivers, I can't see any way that this setup would work...???   
      
   Sorry for being skeptical, but from a programming perspective, your utility   
   isn't making any sense to me :(
