Hello Jon

I had that same error did a reread and found I didn't add USE_DOSEMU=1

make install SYMLINK=1 USE_DOSEMU=1

Laughing now just stuck on still getting them to work.

Hope this helped.

Dos doors work great under *nix with Synchronet with the correct setup.

You need dosemu and will need to compile Synchronet with USE_DOSEMU=1 if you haven't already.

http://wiki.synchro.net/howto:dosemu

Read up on those to get you started, there's a lot more information on it with some searches between the wiki, google, and on DOVE-Net.
