If your BBBS is being hit time after time with bots, this script may fix it for 
you... I've been running this script now for about 15 minutes, and everytime 
Yandex kills bbbsd this script runs my script that brings it back up.. :)

=====Start script======
#!/bin/bash
cd /home/bbbs
check_process() {
  echo "$ts: checking $1" >>check.log
    [ "$1" = "" ]  && return 0
    [ `pgrep -n $1` ] && return 1 || return 0
  }

      while [ 1 ]; do
        # timestamp
          ts=`date +%T`

            echo "$ts: begin checking..." >>check.log
            check_process "bbbsd"
[ $? -eq 0 ] && echo "$ts: not running, restarting..." && `./telnetnode.sh >
/dev/null`
sleep 5
done
=========End Script========

Notes:
The line that starts with "[ $? -eq 0 ] && echo "$ts: not running," wraps in 
this message, so make sure that is all on one line.

If you can't copy this script for whatever reason, let me know and I'll send it 
to you via email or Fidonet.

If you remove the references to "check.log", this script will write to your 
screen, like this:

23:55:13: begin checking...
23:55:13: checking bbbsd
23:55:19: begin checking...
23:55:19: checking bbbsd
23:55:24: begin checking...
23:55:24: checking bbbsd


Take care,
Janis
