Note: on Windows, only use notepad to edit client.cfg. wordpad and the DOS edit command strip off important end-of-line characters in the file and client.exe will reset it to its default values. In notepad you will see an empty rectangle character after each field: this is the end-of-line character and it must not be removed. "

using DOS edit will also retain the correct format

Is that DOS like the real DOS 6.22 or older, or the windows 'dos' edit ;)
How about DR-DOS ?

If you use the dos box in windows and use type...


type client.cfg
[settings]
email=YourEmailAddy@YourDomain.com
server=eon.cm.utexas.edu
port=10204
loglevel=0

[firewall]
active=no
host=hostname
port=1080
userpass=user:passwd

[apps]
client=al110c
version=1
if it doesn't look like that, then your [] squares were removed?
