It's not working so well as I want it too..

The idea should be: 

   * Let's listening to port 2000
   * Wow we got a caller, let's fork, so we still listen at 2000, but we
     still maintain the connection to the caller.

The fork() thing did work, but the process were still listening at 2000,
but I didn't should. I couldn't really fix it. :-(

So now Maximus only allows one caller pr. tcp/ip port. :-(

My script for starting max is:

ERRLVL=0

while [ $ERRLVL -eq 0 ]; do
  cd /home/ftn/
  bin/max -w -p2000 -b38400 -n1
  ERR=$?
  echo "errorlevel " $ERR
  ERRLVL=0
  if [ $ERR = 1 ]; then
    echo "Exting Max ..."
    exit
    ERRLVL=1
  fi
sleep 7
done

I wonder if you can use it..
