Hello Tony,   
      
   > Thank you Jeff, so if I well understand you don't use the internal event of   
   > BBBS. So in essence you call different scripts by crontab. Do you have a    
   > scrip to poll your nodes?   
      
   An example script might be:   
      
   #======Start Script======   
   #!/bin/sh   
   #BBBSPERL=/usr/bin/perl   
      
   # Change to working directory   
   cd /home/bbbs   
      
   #Execute poll command   
   /home/bbbs/bbbs bom create 1:261/38 +crash   
      
   #Touch BBBS rescan semaphore file   
   touch /home/bbbs/work/rescan.1   
      
   #Update poll log to show poll was made (All one command, No wordwrap)   
   echo "1:261/38 (Janis Kracht) System Poll Successful: $(date)" >>   
   /home/bbbs/logs/bbbs-poll.log   
   #======End Script=======   
      
   More could be done here but this is a basic script to poll. I have a  BBBS   
   semaphore file that is touched if mail/files are received as a result    
   of the poll.   
      
   Jeff
