Ärende: BBBS Node Question
==========================
Hello Kim.

    Will check and let ya know. In my sessions I use the "g y" command.
There are times when I will see 4-7 DOS boxes open cascaded on the screen.

 KH> Have you tried to wait a long time, like one or two hours?

     Yes. The other evening I watched the screen and noticed the DOS boxes
get opened and stayed open all evening. Initially the situation was drawn to my
attention when I tried to login via http and couldn't because of a license
violation. I then checked the BBBS machine and noticed the open DOS boxes.

    I don't remember noticing this problem when I had BBBS on the Win2003
machine.

     The line reads "The Ouija Board (#10322), using BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag."

 KH> In "bcfg4 / global / numbers / total nodes", you have 7 there?

    Yup. 7 is there.
