    From Immortal@21:1/185 to All on Thu Mar 14 18:49:42 2019
    Has anyone managed to get the latest github version of Usurper for linux to work? I can't seem to get it to read the drop file. It just always loads up in local mode and asks for a username.

    The command line I'm trying is:
    ./USURPER /P/mystic/temp1

    I've also tried using the /C and /N arguments but can't get it to work. It will show whatever node number I pass to it but it always loads up in local mode. I'm pretty sure it is not even trying to read the drop file as I can
    put anything in there and it never says there is a problem, it is almost like the /P parameter is ignored. I've tried /P, /p, /P/whatever /P whatever,
    etc.

    None of those will work, I had tried this before and seems to work in local mode only and really unsure why.

    some one needs to recompile it and fix it that knows C++.

    That would have to be someone with time on their hands, something I do not
    have at the moment. =P

    it's actually in Free Pascal. i think the bug is in the parameterhunt procedure.

    I have the win32 version of 0.24 running in my XP VM. I'm not sure if it is the github version or older as it was a few years ago. I've tried the dos version as well but half the time the maintenance crashes with a runtime
    error. I'll keep playing with it and if all else fails just go back to one
    of the really old versions as they worked although maintenance took forever to run.

    no it's not. free pascal does not use opendoors for that is a c door kit.

    I thought we were talking about Usurper.

    https://github.com/RickParrish/Usurper

    If you look at the SOURCE/BUILD.{cmd,sh} files, the compiler used is fpc.
