I take it that telnetnode.sh (re)starts your bbbsd daemon? I don't recall, does 
BBBS create any bsy files that would prevent bbbsd from reloading until any
such files were taken care of?

I have tightened down iptables to limit the multiple telnet attempts. Which has 
helped but I still occasionally run out of available nodes. Even though the 
busy nodes are cleared more quickly now.
