   So glad it's working so far.   
      
   I use node 2 to dial out via telnet/binkp.  In bcfg4 2 (for node 2), I have   
   Local Screen echo enabled, and also Slow Protocols enabled (both are marked   
   with [X].   
      
   Here's my script to run my dialout node (node 2), it runs pretty much all   
   day/night, and sends out crash mail to nodes configured with the C flag in   
   external.bbb.  I was also tossing mail with this script if I picked it up, but   
   then commented it out (# below is a commented out line), and use cron  now to   
   toss mail, etc.   
      
      
   ====start dialout.sh====   
   #!/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   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   
   =========end dialout.sh==   
      
   This script above uses node 2, remember, so when you start BBBSD, you take   
   that into account and start with node 3:   
      
   =====start telnetnode.sh=======   
   #/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   #   
   ./bbbsd 3 15 telnetd:23 httpd:8080 ftpd:60721 rawd:24555:binkp "quiet" "fork"   
   "uid:"bbs &   
   # line above wraps!   
      
   ========end telnetnode.sh   
      
   This line above runs nodes 3-15 as binkp, http, telnet.   
      
   If you have any problems let me know, you may have to add some lines to your   
   /etc/services file.  I had to add these lines to /etc/services at the bottom of   
   the file, under #Local services.. you have to be careful with this file.   
      
   # Local services   
   bftp-data       60720/tcp                       #BBBS Bftp-data   
   bftp            60721/tcp                       #BBBS Bftp   
   bsmtp           2525/tcp          mail          #BBBS email   
   bpop3           6110/tcp         pop-3          # BBBS POP version 3   
   bpop3           6110/udp         pop-3          # BBBS Pop   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
