    So I am trying rebuild my BBS that I had back in the day. I see some Synchronet BBS's are running DoorMUD and 'End of the Line BBS' has
    The Ultimate Mud Connector. Where can I find these to setup on my own
    BBS?

    Now, the rub...and I think this is where you guys will tell me I will
    have some challenges. I am running Debian 12 underneath Synchronet
    BBS and I suspect that DoorMUD and that Ultimate Mud Connector are
    probably DOS only, right? So then, what options do I have?

    I have tried to compile DOSEMU2, but have been running into missing dependencies, missing repositories, etc. Because I would also list to
    prop up 'The Pit' in my door section as well.

    I am new to Synchronet and am still getting a 'lay of the land' if
    you will, but slowly and surely...I am making process, lol!

    You can grab my dosemu2 setup. Just copy stuff over and it just works
    once you have dosemu2 installed.

    https://www.endofthelinebbs.com/dosemu2.tgz and there's a dosemu2.txt
    file that gives more details.

    The Ultimate MUD Connector is something I wrote myself as an exercise
    in how to not code very well and I don't distribute it. People may say
    that's selfish but I contribute in other ways, like an easy drop-in
    that just works for dosemu2.
