    I experimented with Solitree and I was only ever able to get the "An ERROR #1 Has Occurred" to pop-up on the local/server side.

    Make sure you set up the door files in the c:\sbbs directory. JNS_NODE.DAT and such. They are how the game knows what directory the drop file is in. There are a copy different files, depending on what game you are trying to run.

    Tim,

    game you are trying to run.

    I think I put mine in c:\sbbs\xtrn -- and it still works.
