I kind of half asked this once before, but it was stuck in on another
thread, so I think it was overlooked.
Does anyone have info on how to use the I-Modem protocol for data
transfers? (that's Eye-Modem). All I have been able to find is that it is
a protocol designed for long distance, slow connections. So it sends a
packet, and doesn't wait for a check. Rather it just sends all packets,
and at the end, the recipient sends back a list of bad packets to be
resent. The idea is, it will be faster when sent over a high latency
connection.
I *think* the protocol was created by John Friel. I base that off the
little info I was able to find thru multiple different online searches
(google being the most useful).
What I am looking for is the specs needed to write an implimentation of
it. I have a system that can only send files via i-modem, and I want to
write a new program to talk to the server. Right now I use Procomm Plus
1.1b since it is the only application that I have found that supports
imodem. I would like to write a custom front end to the system, so I can
make access safer, easier, and more automated.
If anyone has specs, or source code for imodem they can send me, it woud
be very helpful.
Thanks

Is there any professional interest for spares for IP11/IPV11/IP300 systems.
I was asked to make a bid for a complete IP11 installatiom that was running

Components of the installation are:
M5031 -> 19 ea
M6015 -> 9 ea
G670 (M5014) -> 16 ea
A014 -> 3 ea
A156 -> 7 ea
A020 -> 1 sea
M8719 -> 1 ea
Racks with power supply -> 8 ea
+ cables
+ 3 cabinets containing the racks
Please contact me offlist if you notice any components you would need.
Most cards were ok 2 years ago. I could test cards before sending them.
