Umm, James?
To me it let me manipulate the server from a command line. It looks
like it ties into the share memory segment. I have not looked at the
code much, just using it. :)

Well, if I change the ntserver/planet.h START_ARMIES to 17, then
things work fine.
Using setgalaxy I get the following.
% tools/setgalaxy F
All planets set to 30 armies.
30 armies is the hard-coded default value. This must be coming from
ntserv/planets.h, so it looks to me that the START_ARMIES value from
.sysdef is being used.
