    I think I had to make some changes. Specfically, make sure I/O method
    is FOSSIL or UART, Native Executable/Script is set to No and Use Shell
    or New Context is Yes. The rest shouldn't matter. With these 3 set,
    dosemu2 definitely works with the latest synchronet.

    Great news! So I just decided to spin up a new Synch and installed dosemu2 to test. I followed the wiki, but I'm getting a response that dosemu2 can't find XTRNDIR. I assume this is a var setting somewhere I missed? Is there anyway to write this to the screen? Door.sys is getting written to the door directory so synch is finding and writing to it correctly in /xtrn/door.

    I believe it's from the dosemu.ini update Nightfox posted:

    cmd=/usr/bin/env $TERM HOME=$CTRLDIR QUIET=1 DOSDRIVE_D=$NODEDIR DOSDRIVE_E=$XTRNDIR DOSDRIVE_F=$CTRLDIR DOSDRIVE_G=$DATADIR DOSDRIVE_H=$EXECDIR NODEDIR=$NODEDIR $DOSEMUBIN SHELL_LOADHIGH_DEFAULT=0 -d $NODEDIR -d $XTRNDIR -I"video { none }" $VIRTUALCONF -f$DOSEMUCONF -E$EXTBAT -o$NODEDIRdosemu_boot.log $EXTLOG
    [stdio]
    cmd=/usr/bin/env $TERM HOME=$CTRLDIR QUIET=1 DOSDRIVE_D=$NODEDIR DOSDRIVE_E=$XTRNDIR DOSDRIVE_F=$CTRLDIR DOSDRIVE_G=$DATADIR DOSDRIVE_H=$EXECDIR NODEDIR=$NODEDIR $DOSEMUBIN SHELL_LOADHIGH_DEFAULT=0 -d $NODEDIR -d $XTRNDIR -I"video { none }" -I'keystroke "\n"' $VIRTUALCONF -f$DOSEMUCONF -E$EXTBAT -o$NODEDIRdosemu_boot.log $EXTLOG

    Excited at the prospect! Much appreciated!

    So I took out the XTRNDIR var and put in the actual directory as a test. It runs dosemu2 and hangs. Which is fine to me I think because I feel like that means it's close and maybe just sitting at the console or something. Or maybe the fossil isn't kicking on. At very least it's not throwing an exception and bombing out.

    Any other suggestions would be apprecaited. I did a fresh server set up, made sure I took the time to get the permissions right, etc. So I think I might just be down to a few settings here or there.
