So, what were you after? Trying to keep from having to kill InJoy via a cron
job to get things to recycle to binkley (to restart the fidonet mailer)? If
so, two options: (a) Is there a hook you can use when IREX exits (like
modifying the command file running IREX to run killjoy instead of the CRON
job)? And (b) Is there an idle shutdown setting available in InJoy that would
work for your situation? The later would allow you to use the box for other
internet related activity and allow that processing to complete before
recycling to Binkley.
Take care.....
