Is your BBS placing the proper dropfile in the correct location? If you're
putting them in a node directory, nodes 1 and two may already have a door.sys
in them. If nodes 3 and 4 don't have a drop file available, and the BBS isn't
putting one where it should be.. that could be why your games aren't running
properly.
