I even tried what was suggested in the wiki 

SBBSCTRL=/sbbs/ctrl && export SBBSCTRL and still:

kk4qbn@kk4qbn:/sbbs/exec$ ./runsbbs
[sudo] password for kk4qbn: 

Synchronet Console for Linux  Version 3.17a  Copyright 2016 Rob Swindell

!SBBSCTRL environment variable not set, using default value: /sbbs/ctrl


this is in ~/.profile ~/.bash.profile AND in the script I use to run the SBBS
console app. so the env var is actually set in the same term sbbs is being run
in RIGHT before it is being run and still don't work.

to make SCFG work right I either have to run /sbbs/exec/scfg /sbbs/ctrl
or cd on /sbbs/ctrl and run ../exec/scfg

it's crazy.. it should be working but will not..
