Hola!

I'm running my Synchronet/2 along with a second 286 PC occasionally running the
DOS version. The main reason I run the DOS node is that I'm playing with a way
for visitors to sign a guest book (long story), and running a full Synchronet
seems a bit overkill.

RLFOSSIL is working fine on that box, so now my question is - is there a way to
run a door program without a full-blown BBS in front? All that is needed is
basically something that speaks FOSSIL and does the job of accepting the "call"
and handing control off to the door program right away.

This needs to work in DOS, and preferably not require a 386. RLFOSSIL does
technically require a 386 but with EMU386 it actually works on a 286 as well.

Any help would be most appreciated - and apologies if I should be posting this
elsewhere.
