Cool.. I will try it out when you do then. :)
I'm currently testing an idea of actually running Synchronet on CentOS 7, and
so far, after grinding thoroughly through building custom RPMs for DOSEMU,
BinkD, and Husky Tools, the main software needed for my full setup, I am
actually coming up with astonishing results.
I even went above and beyond and made a DOS door maintenance script that would
parallel run through each door that was configured in the script to allow
running 2+ dosemu sessions at the same time one for each door, and tracking of
each one.
Unfortunately the one limitation was: I ended up using 4DOS 8.00 (Freeware), to
get proper logging done. I could never get FreeDOS's command.com to allow me to
capture the date and time into a variable to output to a logfile, but this
allows me now to track that each door actually ran to completion, and not
aborted out in a DOSEMU crash. :D
