You mean like as a door to remote connect? Something like this
shouldwork if telgate.js is still a thing. it's been a while it may
have been changed/removed, but...

```Make a new door app entry, command should be something like:
*telgate.js {ip} {port}```

Just spaces, no colins or what have you.

I had tried  *telgate but didn't know you could you needed to write it
*telgate.js , I'll give that a try.

It says it's trying, just doesn't look like it's passing it through
the terminal. I'm using drop file type dorinfo#.Def,  should that be
something different?

Goto the wiki.synchro.net pages for assistance. JS programs don’t need
a drop file they just read the data from sbbs through variables. Look
up telgate.js on the wiki.

The thing is I already have 2 others that work. This 1 I'm trying to
add does not. But it will through regular telnet, say zoc or putty.

Yeah it’s a file that I think is in sbbs/exec. You can ope. It in a
text editor. They sometimes put comments and settings in the file.

Looks like it should be *telgate.js address:port, since you mentioned
using ports. Without the ":port" is would default to standard telnet
port 23.

I've tried that, does bring anything back. Outside synchro I can
connect to it just fine though. Not sure why I can't inside the sbbs.
I have 2 others that work, just not the 1. Weird.
