I should note that the System V simulator doesn't actually work under
System V.  :)  Well, under Solaris, you can use /usr/ucb/echo instead of
/usr/bin/echo, and change "hostname -s" to "hostname", and then it works.

If I was bored, I'd change the echo statements to make it a Solaris
simulator.  Then you'd need a "sleep 60" at least.  :)

Cheers,
Jake
