Hi all. Nice to meet you all.
Any of you guys know where i can get hold of some Linux BBS doors as i would like to test one or two before i progress onto DOSEMU and DOS doors.

Try the Blackjack that comes pretty much ready to go with sbbs. That one shouldn't give you any trouble and is an example of the basic setup.
You might also want to experiment with running native linux programs as doors by using the "Intercept stdio" option in the setup.

I must admit i am a bit ashamed as it is not for running with Synch.
What i was after is either source code to compile or Linux binaries to test on another BBS package, hope it is okay to ask this on DoveNET.

I just thought too after posting that last message.
Intercept stdio that is sucha cool feature. He must of somehow hooked
a Linux Syscall to stdio. maybe write and redirected to the terminal.
of course he would have had to hooked stdin too for input. but that is such a cool feature. anywho look forward to yuor reply from previous message.

http://www.bbsfiles.com has some.
http://doors.bbsdev.net/ has some too (I think)

I'm pretty sure the source is on the sbbs site for a couple. There
aren't many at this point for linux though.
I have Ambrosia running on my board and I think that it's from source.
You might check that one out to get some ideas.
Are you looking to port or write some new ones?

Yes, it is. I've played around with a few programs like tetradraw and others, as doors. With that one I made some mods to the source to
restrict directory movement when you load or save files. The script it
runs from just creates a directory that is named as the users ID #, and
then moves there and runs the program. The users can draw and save and
come back later and work on the same pictures. I haven't setup the networking aspect of it yet, but I think you could have multiple users
from different bbs's networked together on drawings.
Anyway, all sorts of things possible with that.
Have a look at the synchronet source code, and the source code for the couple doors that are out there on linux for ideas. We could sure use
more doors for linux!
-j-Well yes we sure do need more doors for *nix and i will look into that one day i have just got my plate a bit full of stuff to do atm it would seem.

What version of Linux you running? I got Ambroshia version 4.0
running under Gentoo Linux. It seems to be a good solid door game.
People around here sure seem to enjoy it. And I plan on paying the fee to register it. Let me know if you have any problems. It seemed to be difficult to install at first.
All though I had a problem at first. After you download the door.
It should run from a command prompt after you run the install file. From console after you run the ./ambroshia file it should play. Then put it in the /usr/bbs/sbbs dir. Follow the instructions for ./scfg
On Gentoo I had some missing libraries and I fixed it with:
emerge -a sys-libs/lib-compt
Version 1.4.1
Description: Compatibility C++ and libc6 libaries for programs new and
old.
The door has ran perfect after that. Very fast too.
I have about 10 players.
I have tackled the dosemu stuff a little bit.. not much luck there.
I can be reached on yahoo:CoCo_Kid594
Hopes this helps and Good Luck.

Is Ambroshia 4 the latest ?
Thanks for your help guys.

Hi again. I have downloaded and installed ambrosia but having a few problems getting it to run. I know i need libc6 as the error msg is as follows. ./ambrosia: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Where do i need to download these please as i can't seem to find what i need i need to install manually as there is no apt-get or anything installed on t test system.
Also do i need to compile the libraries?

I must apologise in advance becasue this is probably not going to be in the correct echo but i was wondering if any of you guys know of any ansi artists that might be interested in doing some work for me. I guess there are gettin fewer and fewer nowadays but its worth a try as i am not getting anywhere in other places i have looked/asked.

Will do thanks I remember that from way back. I din't notice any errors when I imported messages. I will not use it till I get and find the patch. I used to have it. It seemed to be displaying the date okay on mine. Didn't it used to make the year say 100 or something like that...___ Blue Wave/DOS v2.30This has a Y2K bug that screws with the headers in the QWK packet.
