<H3>Description.</H3>
<P>
<strong>mbmon</strong> is the monitor program so that you can see what is
happening on your bbs. It can show all processes and actions of all programs,
show system statitistics, disk useage, and the last callers list.
2003-08-24 12:25:24 +00:00
<strong>mbmon</strong> must run on the same system where the bbs is. When
started it will also report that the sysop is present on the system for chat so
that users of your bbs can page you for a chat. If a user pages you, this will
be shown in every screen of <strong>mbmon</strong> and a beep will sound every

few seconds.<BR>
