Rob,

 RS> Trade Wars, or any other door for that matter, should never "have a
 RS> fossil driver with it"; the system/sysop must provide a compatible
 RS> FOSSIL driver. I'm not clear what you're trying to convey here. --

  The way I understand it, if you don't have a fossil driver with it,
it can't be run under telnet, unless:

1) You're running Synchronet with the DOSXTRN utility.
2) You use the Doorway program and a generic dropfile for the door.

  Since I'm running Synchronet, I can run fossil or non-fossil doors,
setting them up like a regular door. When I ran Virtual Advanced, I
had to set up a generic dropfile and use the Doorway program, with
DOOR.SYS as the dropfile, if the door didn't support DORINFO1.DEF --
the late Tim Cornett developed a VScript that'd convert the comport
to com0, and combined with Doorway, you could run it under Virtual
Advanced (VADV32).
