I still have a backup of my original BBS that I ran from 1994-2000.  I used RemoteAccess (for DOS) for that.  A while ago, I got it set up to run as door from my current Synchronet BBS - it runs RemoteAccess as a door and you can then log into my old BBS that way.  But I think there may have still been a small glitch with it, as I have that 'door' set up with sysop access so that only I can access it (for testing).  It's been a while since I gave it a try, so I don't remember exatly what may have been wrong..  Maybe I just wanted to see if there was a way to automatically create user accounts in RemoteAcess & sync them so that users don't have to manually create another user account with it.

It would be cool to set up other BBS software packages that way too.  BBSing is cool part of computer history.  I remember a lot of BBS software packages being used for all the BBSes in my area in the early 90s.
