    Ok I have a couple of logon events that are giving me fits. Perhapsãsomeone else has delt with this.ããI run my BBS as a window. It is not always the main (focus) window. Ifãit isn't the main window (focus) these two programs hang up until theyãare the focus. Both were written for Sync. They both use Xtrn.dat filesããDomain BulletinãSynchronet Users Security System (SUSS)ããIs there some reason for this?ãOr a setting I am missing?ãã * OLX 2.2 TD * Proofread carefully to see if you any words out.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ telnet://talamasca-bbs.com http://www.talamasca-bbs.comã
