Hy there,
The unknown return code 127 normaly results out of a false execution. That
means, if u would like to start XFBB in daemon mode,
the -d parameter is required. "./xfbb.sh -d" for example could be your bbs
start command.
Another possibility could be, that some settings in the file itsself are
wrong, but I don�t think that, because the original downloaded one from
F6FBB already worked at the first execution on my LINUX-PC. (except washup
;-))
Perhaps u can take some information out of my config-files, I attached them
for you.
