if you have the proper binary for your BBS, yes, there may very well be... my
system contains a patch and easily followed instructions to correct the y2k
bug in the C library used in the door and the reader... they are contained in
my BLUEWAVE file area... i've loosely tested the patch by manually patching
the RA version of the door... everything was found as the patch scripts and
readme state and the manual hex editing of the binary was no problem...
TTBOMK, everything works as desired and i've not seen any mention of problems
from those who use my system's offline capabilities who choose to use the BW
door (if i still have it online)...
