   Ok. Either way, I grabbed the archive and tried for myself with the same   
   results. Even though those files are executable, they don't actually run and   
   give a "Bad command of file name" error. I'm wondering if Kim created another   
   step or the archive is just bad. Here's the steps I took:   
      
   user/group axisd:axisd   
      
   /home/axisd/tmp $ wget www.bbbs.net/ftp/bbbs_lii.tar.gz   
   /home/axisd/tmp $ gunzip bbbs*   
   /home/axisd/tmp $ tar xvpf bbbs*   
   /home/axisd/tmp $ cd bbbs   
   /home/axisd/tmp $ ./bcfg4 0   
   Bad command or file name   
   /home/axisd/tmp $ ./bbbs   
   Bad command or file name   
      
   This was with an Archlinux VM on an HP Proliant server with an Intel Xeon   
   processor.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
