Thanks a lot Rob for the help,

I do not have right now that repo folder on disk to check cntnodes.src, but I
recall checking and while the compiler was looking for the " .exec.release", on
my filesystem I had " ..exec.release" which got me puzzled as well.

>It sounds like you're not able to build the exec/*.bin files (built with
Baja).

I'm now confused as the tarball ended compiling without errors and so far I was
able to run the BBS config and console, even creating the sysop user.

I don't mean to create confusion if this is unrelated, but just to clarify, I'm
not having compiling errors (I think), I'm able to run exec/sbbs and when
connected (telnet) to the BBS from a terminal emulator often a red error line
on screen saying "!ERROR executing yesnobar" appears, while I can see the
console log showing:
"!ERROR 2 (No such file or directory) in exec.cpp line 791 (exec_bin) executing
"yesnobar" access=0 info=module doesn't exist" 

Is this possibly still related to BAJA?

At this point, if the GIT is correct and hits a BAJA issue (but the tarball
successfully compiles?) I'm starting wondering if my Pentium III processor may
be missing some feature needed? I put together this retro machine to run DOS
BBS software, but I eventually realized Synchronet is much more powerful...
still it's good having access to FDDs and SCSI card, as I can read/write media
from many of my old computers, so I opted to simply run a newer OS on the P3.
