== Why is there no ability for the billing server to shutdown/restart a server? ==

The ability of the billing servers to shutdown a zone server is a relic from the old system. The biller is no longer an administrative and control server, but simply a validation system used to control passwords for player names and bans.
 
 
 
== Are there any TCP billers available for public download? ==
 
Long answer no with an if, short answer yes with a but.  A stable, public-use TCP [[biller]] does not currently exist.  If you wish to use simply a short-term biller created as a proof-of-concept TCP biller, then [[POCoB]] is for you.  [[User:Smong|Smong]] wrote it and has it available [http://toktok.sscentral.com/ss-pocob.php on his website].  The old UDP billers are available still, one with the server download, and one found at [http://catid.ssihosting.com/ Catid Inside].  Reliable TCP billing will soon be offered by [[Servers#SubSpace International (SSCI and SSI)|SSI]] as a public-access biller for anyone who wishes to connect with either [[ASSS]] or [[Subgame2]], but, the server is not downloadable for private use.
