I run my CNet in WinUAE, BinkD is run in a 32 bit version of Windows 10, it runs fine, no issues at all.. In fact there is even a BinkD 64 bit version which is running with Second Coming BBS in Win10 64bit. What I do is use the DOS version of BinkD and run it in Windows, then a couple of scripts to copy and import the files that are received and exported to BinkD into and out of CNet.. I do have a doc file I wrote up a few years ago on how to setup CNet Amiga in WinUAE Emulation with BinkD. I know it is on my Facebook Group (Wrong Number Family Of BBS') not sure where else it is, I can email you it if you want it. A good resource to getting CNet setup right in WinUAE is K-Guide owner of CNet, he has a file on the CNet website which explains step by step how to install in a setup which makes it extremely simple. After that, use my doc file  for BinkD and FTN networks and you will be up in no time. Let me know if you need me ot email you the doc file I have..
