I'm stuck on... I'm not entirely sure, really. I've managed to get dosemu set up, all that shit, but the door I'm installing wants the EXACT dropfile, not just the directory it's in. And I can't seem to find that anywhere. At one point I figured it was because nobody was logged in, but even when I logged in and then looked for one, I couldn't find the dropfile.

Maybe I'm just completely misunderstanding what a dropfile is? The docs seem (to me, at least) to work under the assumption that you already know how doors interact with BBS software. I've never touched doors before beyond playing them.
