I've a question about any of the multi-serial-port boards (i.e.
Checkpoint, ASDG, or Commodore's.)  I know the ASDG uses a
requestor.  What about the others?  What happens if you are
running a multiline BBS and have a power-out?  When the
system reboots with power, would you get that requestor which
would effectively make the BBS unoperable till the Sysop got
home?  Or is there a way to select ports in a script or
mountlist? This is especially important to me as I'm
considering a multiline bbs on a 2000.  Thanks in advance.
