|    Problem starting bbbsd    |
|    29 Nov 17 03:22:40    |
      Hello Chad,              > I tried starting the telnet server by:       > ./bbbsd 1 1 Telnet's:23              Do you mean "./bbbsd 1 1 telnetd:23" ?              > It says could not bind       > There is nothing running on port 23.              > Am I doing something wrong?              bbbsd loaded as user can't bind to ports less than 1024. I load bbbsd as root       at bootup which allows bbbsd to bind to the necessary ports. bbbsd will load       as root but switch to run as user.              The command line I use to load BBBS here is:              ./bbbsd 3 22 telnetd:23 httpd:8080 ftpd:21 rawd:24554:binkp "quiet" "fork"       "uid:bbbs" &              Note: All on one line.              Jeff              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-3        * Origin: The Ouija Board (1:282/1031)    |
