Are you using Synchronet w/Windows? I haven't documented that, so would be
great to add to goldminebbs.com documentation site once we have a working
example. I'm running Linux and i use an .sh script to grab the user name
directly from the dropfile (e.g. pass the node number): 

----

#!/bin/bash

# Get the node number and door code from the arguments passed
NODE_NUMBER=$1
BBS="TAG"       # Change this to your tag 
DOOR_CODE=$2

# Define the path to the sbbs DOOR32.SYS file
DOOR32_SYS_PATH=/sbbs/node${NODE_NUMBER}/DOOR32.SYS

# Extract the alias from line 7 
USER_ALIAS=$(sed -n '7p'
"$DOOR32_SYS_PATH" | tr ' ' '-') # replace spaces

# Run the rsh-redone-client command
if [ -n "$DOOR_CODE" ]; then
    TERM_PARAM="xtrn=$DOOR_CODE"
    TERM=$TERM_PARAM rlogin -p 2513 -l "$USER_ALIAS" goldminedoors.com 
else
    rlogin -p 2513 -l "$USER_ALIAS" goldminedoors.com
fi
