hi all sorry for my short explanation , but first, in runing linux , i hate
windows ;(
second the bbs threads seems die sometimes and the port still binded? (sorry
my english)
i must down the bbs with killall sbbs and restart them to get to bind the
ports correctly . i do no find what is the time that the board die, but all
of other sync services (ircd, webserver, ftp nntp) still running ok.
