MBSE is tightly integrated with the host OS.  It needs to be able to create 
user accounts, change passwords, etc.  During the SETUP.sh process, it needs 
to modify /etc/services, /etc/inetd.conf and/or /etc/xinetd.conf, etc.  The 
tests in SETUP.sh help determine the proper steps to ensure that the BBS works 
without disrupting any other operations on the system.
