I've been running this script now for about 15 minutes, and everytime       > Yandex kills bbbsd this script runs my script that brings it back up.. :)              [...]              > check_process "bbbsd"       > [ $? -eq 0 ] && echo "$ts: not running, restarting..." && `./telnetnode.sh >       > /dev/null`              I take it that telnetnode.sh (re)starts your bbbsd daemon? I don't recall,       does BBBS create any bsy files that would prevent bbbsd from reloading until       any       such files were taken care of?              I have tightened down iptables to limit the multiple telnet attempts. Which       has helped but I still occasionally run out of available nodes. Even though       the busy nodes are cleared more quickly now.                     Jeff                                   --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-4        * Origin: Fidoneet: The Ouija Board - Anoka, MN -bbs.ouijabrd.net (1:282/1031)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 123 14/5 15/0 2 16/0 19/36 34/999 90/1 103/705 104/57       SEEN-BY: 106/201 116/18 120/331 123/130 131 140 128/2 153/7715 154/10       SEEN-BY: 203/0 124 218/700 221/0 1 222/2 226/17 229/354 426 452 1014       SEEN-BY: 230/0 150 152 240/1120 5832 249/206 317 250/1 261/38 100       SEEN-BY: 266/512 267/155 275/100 280/464 5003 282/1031 1056 288/34       SEEN-BY: 291/1 111 292/854 298/25 26 317/3 320/119 219 322/0 757 340/400       SEEN-BY: 342/13 200 393/68 396/45 423/81 120 712/848 770/1 801/161       SEEN-BY: 801/189 2452/250 3634/12 24 5020/1042       PATH: 282/1031 261/38 320/219 203/0 280/464 229/426           |
