I'm trying to run bbbsd on Ubuntu with this syntax:
sudo ./bbbsd 1 1 telnet:23 httpd:80
But then BBBSD says this:
"Can't bind to socket. Is service already running? Using ports below
1024 require root access, see uid: paramenter"
It works fine if I just run it on port 23 for telnet like this:
sudo ./bbbsd 1 1 telnet:23
But of course I want to listen for http connections too.
Any tips?

Thanks for this tip - there's a slight variation from what Alan gave me, so I tried that (the quotes) but it still says:
"Can't bind to socket. Is service already running? Using ports below 1024 require root access, see uid: paramenter"
I'm running it as the administrator (in ubuntu) but it just won't bind to port
80. It binds to port 23 with no problem.
Could it have soemthing to do with Apache settings?
Thanks for your suggestion - that looks more proper - but do you have any other suggestion? It seems like a port conflict but I'm not sure why.
If you are running apache on port 80, then make sure you run bbbsd's on httpd:8090 or some different port for the bbbs httpd portion.

Hello Aaron,

I always ran bbbsd like this..
sudo ./bbbsd 1 1 ftpd:21 telnetd:23 httpd:80 rawd:24554:binkp quiet
fork uid:alan
There are other parameters you can use too, use the uid: of the user
the BBS is running as. Adjust as needed.
It's been a while since I ran the SW version. I'm not sure how a
command like that will work in the SW version but have a try and see.
bbbsd is a listener. You can run bbbs to poll other nodes like this..
./bbbs 1 1 tcpip
Or like this to log on locally..
./bbbs 0

that should not work
sudo ./bbbsd 1 1 ftpd:21 telnetd:23 httpd:80 rawd:24554:binkp quiet
fork uid:alan
add 10000+portnum, and then in xinetd proxy native ports to the bbbs binded ports
./bbbs 1 1 tcpip
Or like this to log on locally..
./bbbs 0
its greak to me :-)

That does work except it should be telnetd:23. bbbsd listens itself to the ports given.
sudo ./bbbsd 1 1 ftpd:21 telnetd:23 httpd:80 rawd:24554:binkp quiet
fork uid:alan

binded ports
I suppose that could work but I have never used inet.d or xinetd with bbbsd.
These days I use setcap to give bbbsd access to the lower ports so I don't need to start it as root or use sudo.

Yes, I need to shut down my bbbsd and pollers to add a few areas that were added recently but I have been reluctant to do that because I
need to remember the paramaters to restart them. ;)
