Well, I'll try and not be long winded. I have removed and reinstall SBBS about 4 times, installed with the git repo and and ran make. I also followed the unix install from the wiki's. The 1st couple of times it installed into a dir of /home/sbbs/sbbs/, I have copied my Windows SBBS right over the top of it, but it never took for some reason. So I started using ChatGPT, that helped alot. Finally I installed it on the root as /sbbs copied the main directories  of sbbs and it'sup and running now. ChatGPT helped correct all the old windows directories and it's working just like under Windows.

 I know it probably isn't the way it should have gone, but it seems clean and running good. check it out if you'd like...   livewirebbs.com:1025.
