Synchronet Virtual UART/FOSSIL Driver
The Synchronet Windows NT Virtual UART/FOSSIL Driver (sbbsexec.dll
) is a Synchronet component used (in combination with dosxtrn.exe
) for the support of 16-bit external BBS programs (e.g. door games).
SBBSEXEC.DLL sends its status and error messages to the Windows debug output. You can view the Windows debug output with a debug-viewer such as https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/debugview.
To increase the verbosity of the SBBSEXEC log output, set Debug=true
in the ctrl/sbbsexec.ini
file.
