No, not really. The only thing that had me stumped for a little while was the need to touch a couple of files on the wwiv side to get the wwivnet setup working.

One was email.dat it was complaining one was missing (i think it was msgs/email.dat) and the other was the subscriber list was missing and I had to create it (nSUBTYPE.net)

Otherwise it seems to work, pretty much all the bridge does is copy messages between two areas, so they appear as new messages in the new area and are scanned out by the scanner / tosser for that net type.
