It was thus said that the Great Michael B. Brutman once stated:
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
I'm back at it again - I plan on doing better this
time. (I've fixed
the specific double delete bug that bit me last time, improved tracing
quite a bit, and added a lot of consistency checking code.)
Just like last time, all you need to do is telnet to 24.159.203.149,
port 2301. Once again, that's my Linux box, but today it is forwarding
port 2301 to my PCjr. The commands are slightly enhanced from the last
test, but it isn't anything highly interactive.
Up to 9 people can connect simultaneously. We didn't get more than 2 or
3 simultaneous connections last time, so I'm probably overly optimistic.
Well, I tested the nine simultaneous connections and yes, it seems to
work, although pressing ^C causes whatever program is listening on the other
end of the TCP connection to stop responding to commands.
Here is a picture of the machine you are connecting
to, complete with
the Western Digital 8003 Ethernet card grafted onto the side:

Very neat. How did you do that to a PCjr? Some sort of hacked up ISA bus
or something?
And lastly, if you remember, type in your OS and
machine type as a
command. It will complain about it being an invalid command, but I'll
see it in the log and I'll have a better idea of what I'm testing against.

These (with the exception of the 192.168.2.1 address) are me. All Linux
systems (2.0 to 2.6) with one Mac mini thrown in.
