I'm trying to find that v20e version for linux, it's out there somewhere I'd
expect. I'll look some more today.

Can you copy the directory structure for your Sync/Doors/USURPER/NODE directory
here?
The way I'm calling the door, I tell bbbs to find the drop file in
doors/USURPER/NODE/ and I also write it out to doors/USURPER/NODE/nodenumber
'just in case' (i.e., directory names 0-14 since I have 15 nodes running here
and I created the 15 directories in the NODE directory).
~/ls -1 doors/usurper/NODE
0
1
10

4 <---DOOR32.SYS also in this directory since I logged in with telnet. 5

DOOR32.SYS
If usurper is expecting something like a directory name such as node# (like
NODE/NODE1 or NODE/NODE2, etc.) I need to change the string I create :)
So, here's what I'm seeing now:
When I enter the door locally I can play the game (./USURPER /L in a terminal).
When I telnet in, I see this:
====cut here===
Your version of Usurper needs to be upgraded.
Current: UNKNOWN
New : 0.24
I tried to upgrade for you, but failed:
Unknown/unsupported version
Please see UPGRADE.DOC for further instructions.
===cut here===
The above makes me think I do need to find v20e for Linux.
When I log onto my bbs node 2 and enter the door (which is really a local call
to the door) I see the same as when I telnet in.. hmmm.... maybe I need to
extend that string that calls the door to include an "if local" kind of line to
call the door with /L for when I log onto the bbs from a console.
Argh.. then again, it's Monday <vbg>
Take care,
Janis
