Hi all,

I'm trying to disable the /A (avatar settings) from the menu(s).

I've edited default.src in the sbbs/exec directory and commented out the /A entry. I've restarted sbbs but the command still functions as normal. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Cheers,
Michael.

$ grep 98 /usr/include/*/*errno.h
/usr/include/asm-generic/errno.h:#define EADDRINUSE 98
/* Address already in use */

According to your OS, that address is already in use. Use netstat or
'ss' to find out which process is using it:

It's not showing, perhaps an old process is hanging on to it.. it appears to solve itself after a couple of attempts... I'll leave it as is unless it gets really annoying.

Would need a lot more information: what kind of client? Does the server recognize the disconnection? Do you have corresponding log messages to share?

Nothing in the logs. I find the logs to be a bit thin. Is there any way to
get verbose logging from sbbs? I've looked through the wiki and can't find anything, also gone through scfg but there may be a .ini file i've missed?

Did you try setting REUSEADDR=1, as directed in the FAQ (http://wiki.synchro.net/faq:tcpip#bind)?

Yes I have that in there, first thing I tried.
