Anyone have the issue when they try to run a door under Linux and
dosemu it tryies to pass it off to a /root/.dosemu directory and NOT
the bbs user .dosemu directory?

I setup a user to run MysticBBS as, but have to start it with "sudo".
If I run it as the user the telnet ports wont bind.

Any thoughts?

Can you login as root directly, and setup everything there?

I don't know if it's a _good_ answer, but I imagine it'd make the
directories line up.

I tried this last night by changing the port to 2323 and indeed it
worked. I may look into setcap, but for now seems like using the non-
standard port is the quick resolve. Thanks.
