   Yes, the main servers (terminal, ftp, mail, web, and services) can each be run   
   in their own instance of sbbs. This is easier to achive use the console mode   
   implementation of sbbs (e.g. sbbs.exe) or sbbsNTsvcs, than say sbbsctrl.exe   
   (for Windows). See install/systemd/*d.service for examples of how this is   
   achived on a systemd-based (usually Linux) system.   
      
   Caveats would be likely slightly higher memory usage (since there'll be   
   multiple instances of the primary binary in RAM) and more complicated   
   management (e.g. restarting multiple processes when wanting to "restart all"   
   of Synchronet). I use aliases on my Linux system for this kind of thing, e.g.   
      
   alias irc-log='journalctl -f -u ircd'   
   alias irc-restart='sudo systemctl restart ircd'   
   alias irc-start='sudo systemctl start ircd'   
   alias irc-status='sudo systemctl status ircd'   
   alias irc-stop='sudo systemctl stop ircd'   
   alias sbbs-log='journalctl -f -u sbbs'   
   alias sbbs-reload='sudo systemctl reload sbbs'   
   alias sbbs-restart='sudo systemctl restart sbbs'   
   alias sbbs-restart-all='sbbs-stop && web-stop && irc-stop && sbbs-start &&   
   web-start && irc-start'   
   alias sbbs-start='sudo systemctl start sbbs'   
   alias sbbs-status='sudo systemctl status sbbs'   
   alias sbbs-stop='sudo systemctl stop sbbs'   
   alias web-grep='journalctl -f -u httpd -g '   
   alias web-log='journalctl -f -u httpd'   
   alias web-restart='sudo systemctl restart httpd'   
   alias web-start='sudo systemctl start httpd'   
   alias web-status='sudo systemctl status httpd'   
   alias web-stop='sudo systemctl stop httpd'
