If they want to know their own IP       address, there's better ways to find it, and I can't imagine a user caring       that the BBS is loading the configuration.              As for the first version notice, it's coming again right away anyway, but the       next time it will be nicely centred.              Suppressing the second version notice would have the same effect of only       showing it once, but the first one isn't shown to SSH users, and only the       second one has the copyright notice.              I don't think it's important to my users that the Synchronet BBS lists detects       the version and OS using telnet... and if it's important to someone else, they       can get it via finger.       --- SBBSecho 3.30-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 102/401 103/1 13 17 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 129/14 153/7715 154/110 214/22 218/0 1 215 601 610 700 840       SEEN-BY: 218/860 880 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 317 400 426 428 470       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 266/512 280/464 291/111 301/1 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 218/700 229/426           |
