Hi, 

I currently run Mystic A47 on a Slackware system; but due
to infrastructure shuffling, I need to migrate it off to
something that is more up 24/7. 

I've set up a new system that's based on CentOS 7.9
and I'm not familiar with systemd and how it
starts services.  

What I currently have is this for my /etc/systemd/mis.service


[Unit]
  Description=Mystic BBS start

[Service]
  User=bbs
  ExecStart=/mystic/mis daemon
  ExecStop=/mystic/mis shutdown

[Install]
  WantedBy=default.target


But when I do the following:

1) systemctl daemon-reload
2) systemctl enable mis.service

3) systemctl start mis

I noticed in "journalctl -xe", I get that it first starts the
service then it shuts it down.

So I figured that maybe ExecStop shouldn't be in it, so I 
removed it.  Did step 1 again.  then started mis.

When I do a  "ps -ax", I don't see it running.  When I try
to ssh into it using the ssh port,  it doesn't connect
as it's not listening, which is confirmed when I do a
"netstat -na".  

Can someone point out what I'm missing?

Thanks

Ed
