  • Synch/Manjaro

    From Robert Wolfe@21:2/136 to Grease on Fri Dec 20 13:07:48 2019
    I've been running the .tar version of Synch on my Manjaro linuxbox and been having problems missin programs or pars of programs. Seems the make install didn't migrate everything over from /sbbs/src/sbbs3.
    So I went nuclear, and deleted the /sbbs directory and installed cvs and did

    that version. Everything was in the right place. Only problem was now I got error 98 binding problems onn all my ports.
    I did RELEASE=1, nope, for some reason Manjaro doesn't seem to have netstat.

    I whipped out the unix snch page and did a clean. Wrong thing to do. It too

    out the exec files, bbut nothing else. So I re cvs'ed Synch.
    I see that I uninstalled wrong, but how can I unbind the ports and what I presume to be a SYMLINK problem also?

    you might want to try and check to see what is already running on those
    ports as there may be some other programs running on those ports in the
    OS. Also, you might have to give the user running SBBS sudo privileges
    so that it can bind to ports lower than 1024.
