I cannot think of anything off hand, maybe someone else can chime in if they 
can.. but when I first started running my system, my bbs stayed bombarded with 
connections from bots, now that DM has implemented the new features in SBBS to 
automatically can these bots it has cleared up.. A LOT, it will take a couple 
weeks to get a lot of the worse offenders canned, but after that, it seems to 
do a great job. I was afraid I would need to move the BBS to a non-standard 
port, etc.. but that is no longer an issue. I would say, just give it some 
time. I will send you a copy of my ip.can if you like, just let me know.
