The "turning off" of servers is controlled via the ctrl/sbbs.ini file and       if you have two separate directories, then you have 2 separate copies of this       file. You can run multiple instances of sbbs on the same system so long as you       point them to their own separate "ctrl" directory (or ctrl/sbbs*.ini file, if       you want the multiple instances to share all the other data and config files).       You'll just need to resolve interface/port conflicts (for binding/listening       for incoming connections) if you have any.       --         digital man (rob)              Sling Blade quote #6:       Karl: he should've had a chance to grow up.
