I just use TCPEXIT.CMD and a single batch file here to run all three nodes of 
the BBS and all of the support programs on startup.  That means if the board 
locks up, I can call my parents to come over as they live about four miles 
across town and do a cold boot for me.  The board will simply bring itself back 
online with no problems (at least hopefully no problems).

Gotta love batch file (and REXX scripting) automation. :P

Later,
Sean
