Connectline v5.2.beta2
Joerg Deckert writes: This is an update
for version 5.1 of Connectline. All components are in there, but there was not enough time for
a completely new version, since there was a Y2K bug to fix and the new year is near. For a full
version an updated documentation and complete tests are missing.
New:
- Now Freeware (no keyfile needed)!
- removal of (hopefully) all Y2K bugs.
- completely new Fido part, fully node-/hub enabled
- files are now stored in the filebase carrying their original names.
- mailinglist server for all networks.
- PPP-Login.
- Netcalls over preconfigured providers, depending on time.
- switching some parts of the program to the NList MUI custom class.
Features:
- multi-net support: ZConnect/RFC/Z3.8/Fido incl. gating
- multi-port support. Nine ports. Up to eight ports freely configurable. ISDN, modem, network,
local, etc. + one sysop port
- interactive control of the box, by WWW (with PD WEB Server), by AmigaGuide or by ANSI choice
- clever Cron system. Events can happen, programs be started on any time, by month, weekday, day, hours and minutes
- uses MUI, therefore fontsensitive and freely configurable outfit
- interface to internet (remote telnet login, (C)SLIP/PPP user login)
- configurable routing, by sender and/or reciever. Domain server configurable for multiple domains.
- Developer Pack for C and ARexx available
- very low memory usage with many ports due to clever server-/client-management
- fully optimized for Amiga multitasking, therefore very low ressource usage
- own locale system for language adjustments by domain, and if wanted online for system texts,
error message, and commands
- output of all commands and system messages freely configurable
- online interface is a standard 100% shell, and all online commandos are AmigaOS commands
- whole drives can be mirrored as boards, like including CD-Roms
- user passwords are stored encrypted. Access rights are granted by groups and levels
- big ARexx port with unlimited possibilities for own expansions, with much more than 200 commands
- virtual memory, automatically enabled on memory shortage
- chat system (also available as standalone version) connecting multiple CL systems and points by internet or
Hydra Netcall
- detailed, pictured manual
- and many more
Requirements:
- System: Amiga or compatible, MC68030 or better
- Memory: for box usage minimum 4 MB (recommended: 16 MB)
- Programs:
- MUI 3.8 or better
