Well, it only applies during setting up and debugging, not for normal
use.
When you invoke bin/xfbbd without the -d option from the command line, it
does not run as a daemon and prints on the screen all it does. You might
even invoke script to log it for later analysis. In the case of
xfbb-7.00g26, it must be run from the fbb base directory, so all the
paths
configured in init.srv are found. In the case of 7.04h I do not recall
clearly from where I did start it. I am not running it now.
It is useful to see if your configuration is akin with what FBB expects
to
find to work properly, as the old MSDOS FBB interface did. I switched to
Linux in 1998, and have not run FBB in DOS in a long time. I have only
resorted to this for debugging, and it has proved really helpful.
For normal BBS usage you should run FBB from xfbb.sh as a daemon ( -d
option
in startup).
