I've been trying to ftp to purdue in search of a games regulator but can't
seem to get there lately. We just put a new machine on campus and half its
hard core users are game players, it's getting to be time to do something
about it. I seem to remember something posted to mod.sources a long time
ago.

I'd like to find something that would control access to the games directory
by forking off a game at a users request if certain criteria are met like
loads, number of tty's in use, etc. If the system got busy while the person
were playing, it might send a 5 minute warning to the user before blowing him
out of the water, etc. I mean if the box is idle I don't care, but when some
people want to do some work....

If you have something like the above at hand, feel free to mail it here.
Thanks in advance for whatever. If someone else who reads this is interested
I'll forward whatever I receive.
