generally speaking, easily handled by creating the proper disk-base semaphore files in the proper directory monitored by the BBS's "Who's Online" tool... but it depends on the system... some might use a binary data file which
would need to be modified with status updates for the nodes' statuses...

both options are relatively easily handled from the command line and thus from within script files as long as appropraite, possibly custom written, tools are available...
