I understand... I'm starting to get the hang of it.... slowly... but I'm dealing with it. I've put together other bash files since then and they're all working just fine. <fingers crossed>

I ahve some linux books on order that should be here in a couple of days. Will give me some material to read before I crash at night.. :)

I saw and appreciate..

Yup... and for now, being I'm using ONLY sbbsecho as a hub, I don't even have to use sudo for SBBS as I'm not running the bbs for the lower ports.... :)
I plan on getting hpt and htick running on it one day but that is in the future when I get more familiar.... :) Baby steps...
