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.sscontinuum.com/ Catid Inside].

Yes, but only unfinished ones.

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?

Yes, but only unfinished ones.

Why should I use a TCP biller instead of something like SSC?
