Handling Nodes And QWK Ma

I still have 2 sets of problems remaining with GT 20 Beta 1, under
Windows 7 32-bit.
1) In handling the GTUSER.BBS file, while it creates the correct one under GT\NODE# (the # is node 1 through 4), it ends up CHANGING the "master GTUSER.BBS in \GT to the newest logon. As a result, a previous user logged onto node 1, may still be connected, but the BBS now thinks that the user
on node 2 is the main user. As a result, any message posts, door entries,
etc. now reflect the latest logon, and NOT the one who had logged on
before. Because of this, I had to CHANGE the setup to SINGLE NODE ONLY
under GT 20 for telnet.
2) While GT will process the QK) QWK Mail Utility downloads, it does NOT process the REPly packet uploads. The only other option is to use a
"prepack mode" with the PDQWK door (since it "looks for carrier", it can
not be run as a door).
As a side note, because of these issues, I had considered switching BBS software, but with a lack of documentation and examples, I have abandoned
that idea.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
