It is being launched as 'inetd &' now, and its output comes out on
/Term_80, mixed with some other stuff as there is also a shell available
there, but which doesn't seem to be adequate.
Due to running out of system ram, I only have w, w1, w2, w3 and w4 in the
bootfile.
Can you post those line(s) from your startup file please?
Thanks Aaron.
Cheers, Gene
