I'm having problems with using esd with multiple users. The first
person to login in the morning can use esd fine, however it won't work
for the second. I'm having to reset the daemon to get it working again
for then next user. This is running in an internet cafe with eight
different logins.
Any ideas?

>>LYD=`get_cfg LYD`

>> /bin/esd -nobeeps -tcp -as 2 -public -port 5001 &
>> /usr/bin/aumix -v 100
>> /usr/bin/aumix -w 100
>>fi
