    Is the link for downloads... Syncterm and connectbot are disconnecting, at least when using -logon. Mtelnet doesn't display the full screen on most of the ansis if you access the door a second or more times. I've tried to let
    the author know about this, but haven't heard back. I don't use discord because I have to be invited to servers. I've messengered him and sent messages to a facebook group he seemed to be following.

    Just tested SyncTERM with the one on the menu (not sure if it's "using -login" or not) in both telnet and SSH, and wasn't disconnected.

    It's not. It's at logon if you don't use the quick logon. You can use configure to turn everything but the call# and lastcall scripts and the
    advent calendar. It doesn't pause; which I've reported as well.

    Ok, yeah... it disconnects via telnet, but doesn't via SSH, and the disconnection is a proper FIN/FIN+ACK/ACK sequence, so it's "on purpose".

    The difference between telnet and SSH implies that the door is being give the raw socket handle and doing telnet itself, and also calls close() or shutdown(s, SHUT_WR) on the socket.

    This type of setup for a door is always problematical because the door is not aware of what telnet options have been negotiated, and if it changes them, it's not passed back to the BBS... the ability of the door to close the socket is also a potential issue.

    I haven't read the documentation, but if it supports something other than passing a socket handle, that would likely avoid the issue (except perhaps the pause thing).
