No you don't.
In my system and in relation to reading the manual I have in directory
xinetd.d a file called mbsebbs and the content is :
--------------
#:MBSE BBS services are defined here.

service binkp
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = mbse
instances = 10
server = /home/mbse/bin/mbcico
server_args = -t ibn
}
service fido
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = mbse
instances = 10
server = /home/mbse/bin/mbcico
server_args = -t ifc
}
service tfido
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = mbse
instances = 10
server = /home/mbse/bin/mbcico
server_args = -t itn
}
# Telnet to the bbs using mblogin, disabled by default.
#
service telnet
{
disable = yes
protocol = tcp
instances = 10
flags = REUSE
log_on_failure += USERID
socket_type = stream
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/telnetd
server_args = -L /home/mbse/bin/mblogin
wait = no
}
service nntp
{
socket_type = stream
disable = no
protocol = tcp
instances = 10
wait = no
user = mbse
server = /home/mbse/bin/mbnntp
server_args = mbnntp

I have a lot of files for doing different tasks so you might have 2 - 5 etc.
Now my home directory for mbse, is at /home and NOT /opt
This can be set up using ./configure --prefix=/home
The reason is that if I decide to load up another distro held on my system
drives which can be a DASD or a SSD I do not have to reinstall and copy over
the content of mbse which in my case is over 16Gb - well over.
{ Also my system has links to a IBM m/f environment etc so it starts adding up
as to all of the changes required for each distro - bit of a pain ! }
Then checking the end of that pass to ensure it will load it all up in
/home/mbse before moving forwards in the build.
