Hello Martin!

I've just installed v1.0.7 on Mageia 5.1(x86_64) and, at first glance,
the install appears to have gone perfectly but after doing a bit of
poking around, I'm not seeing '/etc/xinetd.d/mbsebbs'. Is the install
script supposed to create the file or do I have to create it
manually?
You will find the process is in /etc/rc.d/init.d as mbsed
You can therefore apply :
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed status
E.g.,
[vince@Applewood ~]$ /etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed status
mbsed.service - SYSV: Starts and stops MBSE BBS.
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed)
Active: active (exited) since Mon 2017-03-27 19:11:29 BST; 1 weeks 3 days
ago
Also you can use :
[vince@Applewood ~]$ sudo systemctl status mbsed.service
Which returns :
mbsed.service - SYSV: Starts and stops MBSE BBS.
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/mbsed)
Active: active (exited) since Mon 2017-03-27 19:11:29 BST; 1 weeks 3 days

Of course you can use start | stop in place of status.
depending on your set up of Mag v5 you might need the sudo prefix for the first
method depending on user priviledges.
Also you might see a message about daemon-xxx (where xxx = another
name that I have forgotten).
