Is it possible to generate the 6.25 installation disk set? If I recall correctly, at least one of them was tied to the BBS number, as well as the requisite user pack that would be used for additional upgrades to the license count.
The reason I am asking is that I'm looking to build out a 6.25 setup for a vintage exhibit I'd like to present towards the end of June at a local meetup and I'd like to install some of the modules I originally licensed and tied to my BBS Number.
It's one of those super-vintage asks, I know.

it can be done, the exe file is in the 6.xx masters but quite honestly i would just use your 2-line galgsbl.dll and hexedit the user license.
pretty sure noone will mind. thats all the EXE file does anyhow, writes to galgsbl.dll

That worked.
Also found an archive of MajorTCP 1.78. Thankfully, I still have my codes for this one, too.
The ICO that’s part of the free bundle has issues.
Thanks again!

i have all the originals if ya ever wanna upgrade. major tcp 1.0 all the way to 3.xx (3.xx needs a new license though)
i still use 2.14 occasionally to run a dma server for some dos-era dev testing.
