      Hi again :)              >I don't have a modem here so I can't use /dev/ttyS1 here. When I tried running       > BBBS it tries and fails to initialize the modem then quits so I need a way to       > start BBBS without a modem.              Use this script instead, I probably used the wrong one earlier :( ttyS1 is my       dev/modem guy.. Sorry about that :(              #!/bin/sh       cd /home/bbbs       BBBSLANG en_US.utf8       while :       do        cd /home/bbbs        ./bbbs 2 2 TCPIP       #        RC=$?        echo BBBS RC: $RC        if [ $RC = 137 ]; then        exit        fi       # set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: Mail errorlevel       # if [ $RC = 11 ];       # then nohup /home/bbbs/mailin.sh &       # fi       # Above commented out since I run mailin.sh in a cron job now.       # set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: User mail errl.       # if [ $RC = 12 ];       # then nohup /home/bbbs/mailout.sh &       # fi               if [ $RC = 0 ]; then        exit        fi        reset       done              Warren Hrach sent me those scripts 'eons' ago... He was a great fellow.              Take care,       Janis              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-3        * Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38)    |
