Hi Aaron!

I switch to user root on my ubuntu system, and use this command:
./bbbsd 4 15 telnetd:2030 httpd:8090 ftpd:60721 rawd:24555:binkp "quiet" "fork"
"uid:bbs" &
^ (that is all one line)
I use nodes 1, 2 and 3 for dialout lines here, that's why I start bbbsd with nodes 4-15.

Right... you need to run that as root. You can user bbbs to the sudo group. Hope that helps :)
Take care,
Janis
