  • RA and OS/2

    From Doctor Wade@21:3/105.1 to All on Sun Oct 30 16:25:30 2022
    I have OS/2 4.52 running in a VM on Win10. I am using D"Bridge to recieve mail from my Mystic BBS and Maximus for OS/2 as a BBS. Everything workks fine. Back in the early days I ran FD/RA for my fidonet mail and BBS. I would like to set RA back up to run under a BBS and ditch Maximus. I can run RA under a DOS shell and it sort of works. The batch file runs and RA loads. the problem is the virtual modem is too slow to recognise an incoming call and fails to drop to the BBS.Anyone here running RA in a VM? I use SIO120 to load the vmodem and it works well with Maximus.
    Thanks!
