Message   deon    Nick Andre   D'Bridge (Free)DOS + BINKD   November 11, 2018

Hi Nick,

I just downloaded D'Bridge to have a play. I know it can do BINKD in Windows
environments - is it possible to have BINKD in DOS? FreeDOS has a network 
stack
and it would be great it the BINKD component could run there.

I have my 1995 DOS BBS resurrected, using RLFOSSIL, however, mail transfers 
are
 intermittent - probably because of send buffers, and the sender timing out
before the mail is received in DOS. The performance of RLFOSSIL is almost like
a 300 baud modem and I havent been able to tell either side that it is a slow
link (so it doesnt timeout so quickly).

If BINKD works with the network stack in FreeDOS, I'm thinking this would 
solve
 that problem for me :)
