  • VDOS D'Bridge dos connection to BBS

    From ALAN@1:135/392 to ALL on Thu Mar 17 07:30:28 2022
    HI,

    I would like to run D'Bridge in my windows 10 environmet.

    So, I picked D'Bridge in Vdos. Everything happens except the Binkley
    connection to the BBS.

    I have heard this the support place for it.

    Thanks in advance, any advice would be greatfully` accepted.

    D'Bridge has not been officially tested or supported in vdos. I recommend either plain NTVDM enabled via Control Panel, Programs, Legacy Components if you are using Windows 10 32-bit or download and install NTVDM64 if 64-bit. If you must use something else try Dosbox-X... NOT the "regular" Dosbox.

    The problem you are describing sounds like file system cache, where a DOS program creates a file for a Windows process that is not being seen or vice-versa. Either way this is a problem most likely to do with Vdos itself.
