  • Netfoss/Net2bbs Question

    From Richard Vonzel@21:1/206 to All on Wed Mar 10 08:38:07 2021

    Hello everybody!

    I'm trying to run Net2bbs on a Windows 10 64 bit computer. The problem is that it starts fine and waits for a call, but when a call comes in a second window opens and I get a NETFOS64.DLL not found. Same with the 32bit version. My paths are correct and th DLL files area in the path but for some reason are not being found. Anyone have a help for this?

    I had the same issue, even if the DLL's were in the path it could crash until I moved NETFOSS.DLL to \Windows\System32 (NETFOS64.DLL probably has to go to \Windows\SYSWOW64) and then you should see things chug along.
