Hello All,

I found another how-to for installing on Debian and Ubuntu. Worked flawlessly! Below is the link and instructions I found. Now it's time to experiment!

https://www.randm.ca/howto/synchronet/

sudo apt-get install build-essential cvs libncurses5-dev libnspr4-dev pkg- config unzip zip
sudo mkdir /sbbs
cd /sbbs
sudo wget 'http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi- bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/install/GNUmakefile'
sudo make install SYMLINK=1
To configure: /sbbs/exec/scfg /sbbs/ctrl
To run: /sbbs/exec/sbbs /sbbs/ctrl
To run at boot:
cd /etc/init.d
sudo wget 'http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi- bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/install/init.d/sbbs.debian'
sudo mv sbbs.debian sbbs
sudo chmod ugo+x sbbs
sudo /etc/init.d/sbbs start

Don't forget the USE_DOSEMU=1 if you're using dosemu for dos doors. This basically condensed the wiki into a few lines.

Yup! Added that also. I'll start transfering settings over this week and testing doors.... Hopefully.

I (and others) have found Debian's, and by extension Ubuntu's, dosemu default apt install is broken. You might look at compiling it yourself and see if it works better. Just a heads up!
