====== 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 Microsoft's [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/debugview|DebugView]]((run as Administrator)).

To increase the verbosity of the SBBSEXEC log output, set ''Debug=true'' in the ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[config:sbbsexec.ini]]'' file.
