I have the document about setting up NetSerial and PXWin. Straight forward on PXWin setup. Have to read docs on NetSerial setup. My question is will NetSerial connect with other mailers like Irex,
binkp etc. for the exchange of echo mail and netmail? I currently
have Irex configured to receive and send echo/net mail for my
Wildcat bbs. So was wondering if NetSerial can allow connections
from other internet mailers.

No, it's telnet only. And if you are using the PDF version, then you are probably using my documentation. However, please note that PX/WINS has some issues with NetSerial (ie PXOnline.exe tends to crash it), so I would recommend against going that route until Mike Ehlert fixes that.

However, I do offer FTN transfers via telnet from this system as I have FrontDoor/2 answering the telnet calls (on top of VMODEM <smiles>).

Peace,
Robert

I've got Vmodem, using netserial setup. I would be curious how you got frontdoor to work (not os/2 but dos/win version)

Let me clarify here. When I say VMODEM, I mean the VMODEM.EXE
application that comes with Ray Gwinn's SIO drivers for OS/2, not
NetSerial, in which the term "Virtual Modem" should be used to not
confuse things.

Under OS/2, getting FD/DOS to work under VMODEM.EXE is the same as you
get it to work under a DOS session in OS/2.

*** Quoting Ruben Figueroa from a message to Robert Wolfe ***

Ok, I've used that before when I did run an OS/2 system. I was famili
that but it has been so long so I have used it.

Heh not a problem :) I run my Telegard/2 system (the one I am replying from now) that way, but under SIO2k and its accompanying VMODEM.EXE -- all in an ArcaOS 5.0.2 VM :)
