   I was just wanting to see how many leaves connected and some of the activity. I   
   can watch the dos window and see connections and routings. It looks different   
   than the Windows 10 GUI. I guess it will do. It is something different so I   
   will adjust. I do like running IRCd as a service. My synchronet control panel   
   stops working about once a week and it automatically reboots and loses those   
   leaves. It seems to be a better way to run IRC from my BBS. I won't be   
   switching over to Linux, so I am adjusting to the DOS view of IRCd. I have it   
   set to start as a batch file if my entire computer reboots. When synchronet   
   control panel freezes and crashes I use restartoncrash.exe to auto restart the   
   control panel. It does not affect the entire pc. Its a good working system so   
   far and I can leave it unattended for very long periods of time. I log in every   
   so often to see how many times the synchronet has crashed and check my messages   
   and play games with others.    
      
   Thank you for writing back to me. Have a great weekend.
