-<P>This line works fine for RedHat distributions. It is also fine for SuSE up to
-7.0. From Suse 7.1 you need to add runlevels 2 and 5 like this ...

-<P>The line required for Slackware distributions is slightly different. My thanks to
-Aurelio, PA3EZL for this information.

+<P>As usual, any text behind a # is treated as a comment and not read. To use
+this file, simply rename it from startup.issue to startup. In our example
+above there are three options. The first option is the amount of spots that
+a user can request with the <EM>sh/dx</EM> command. Normally the default is
+to give 10 spots unless the user specifies more. Without this line enabled,
+the maximum a user can request is 100 spots. Depending on your link quality
+you may wish to enable more or less by specifying the number.</P>

+<P>The other 2 options are dealt with more fully in the security section.</P>
+
+<P>Secondly, it is used to store the login scripts for users and nodes. Currently
+this can only be done by the sysop but it is envisaged that eventually users will
+be able to set their own. An example is included in the distibution but here is
+a further example.</P>
