Subj : Java BBS Door Program

Hey guys,
I was tinkering around a little with Door programming in Java and am having a
little trouble grasping the whole Door concept. I know the Door32.sys file
contains a Comm Type (0=local, 1=serial, 2=telnet) and a socket handle. If
I'm a telnet user connected to a BBS I should have a Comm Type of 2 and a
socket handle greater than zero (I think). So in Java, somehow I think I need
to connect to that socket handle in an input and output stream to be able to
read and write data to that socket.
So, I spent some time playing around with the java.net ServerSocket API but
haven't realy figured out how to get the connection. Are there any gurus out
there who can give me some examples on how to receive a handle from the BBS
and communicate with the Telnet user?
