Re: Building Synchronet with SSH (libcl.a)

Notice these errors:

???
The terminal server is trying to bind to the RLogin TCP port you have
configured, but something else is already listening there (might be
another instance of sbbs or just tcp ports stuck in a WAIT state (netstat
would tell you).
https://wiki.synchro.net/faq:tcpip#bind
The terminal server is not going to attempt to bind the SSH port
until the RLogin bind retries are exhausted. So... either disable the
RLogin server or enable the REUSEADDR socket option, as instructed in that
FAQ, so it`ll continue on to bind the SSH port more quickly during
initialization. Just waiting for the bind retry attempts would eventually show you
the SSH port bind (or failure) in the console or log output. You just
need patience or to address the errors you`re seeing.
Also, if you run Synchronet as a daemon (e.g. systemd service)
instead of interactively via sbbs, you`ll have better control over the
services and logging support (e.g. using journalctl or syslog).
