|    Questions about sockets    |
|    07 Dec 16 10:42:00    |
      Howde all!              So I am working on a CNet BBS clone written in Python, and I have a question       about sockets..              *I know from some of the online tutorials that I have watched, that you can       allow a number of connections. But in the instance of a BBS with say 5 nodes,       so 5 telnet connections, which connection is for which node? Os there a way       to specify that connection 1 is for node 1, and so on?               *Zmodem file transfers. With some of the test code I wrote, I was using a       telnet server that someone else wrote, and it is in C++ i believe, so I can't       follow it to well. But it allowed me to transfer files with ZModem just like       any other BBS. How would I accommodate a file transfer like that? Would a       basic socket connection be able to just work? Or would I have to do something       else to make it usable?               I am aware I may not have expressed myself clearly, as I'm still new to the       whole thing with Python. But to me it seems very easy to pick up and learn.       Just understanding is the main problem I have.. LOL              Thanks!              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A31 (Linux)        * Origin: Radio Freqs & Geeks BBS - Albany, NY (FN32DO) (1:267/518)    |
