I've never run netfoss so I'm not sure if that is even needed with netfoss.

When I ran the BBS under DOS or OS/2 I started the fossil at a locked baud rate and the BBS, mailer and doors were all set to use that baud rate and if I didn't set some doors at that rate I'd get garbage on the screen.

Not all doors needed or used a fossil but for those that did I used a locked baud rate and that worked well.

Some doors do need a fossil to run, so you can load the fossil at a locked rate before you run the door and the door will use it.

I had success with either x00 or bnu fossils.
