   Yes, it does.  Here is telnetnode.sh:   
   ===cut here===   
   #/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   ./bbbsd 4 15 telnetd:2030 httpd:8090 ftpd:60721 rawd:24555:binkp "quiet" "fork"   
    "uid:bbs" &   
   ===cut here===   
      
   The "./bbbsd 4 15" line wraps in this message.

   It's not like BinkD, if that's what you mean, so it doesn't that I can   
   remember.

   I thought I had as well... but this darn bot from Yandex kept taking it down..   
   They did it three times yesterday, which is why I started searching for a good   
   script to restart a daemon.  The script I posted is just perfect IMO. :)   
   Running out of available nodes was exactly the problem over here as well...   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
