Hey DM,

I've noticed that when you log into SBBS, it appears as one system with multiple nodes. I see on the wiki that you have 2 physical machines that run the BBS.

So is your setup so that if you login to your Windows instance, it will see who
is on the linux nodes?

How do you do this? Is it as simple as sharing the data/ctrl/text dirs between the two systems?

Yup, 2 plus a VM inside one.

Yes, all the data and config files are shared.

Yup. I'm using Samba.
