you may want to look at:
cshadow.net 4000
It's a diku-hack-POS, (I can say that as I worked on the code it's based
on... ick), but they rigged a 'soft-boot' system, where they reboot w/o
dropping ppl off. Pretty slick. It does incure a slight delay whilst
storing all the info, etc, but it works. It takes advantage of Unix
system calls... some creative work with a fork and exec as I understand
it.
