README file for ttylinkd: The ttylink daemon, dated 5 Mar 1997
This program allows you to receive ttylink requests from NOS or other
stations. It uses the normal Un*x talk protocol for the sysop end and inetd
for the user's end.
As of 0.02, we now accept connections for Net/ROM and AX.25.
As of 0.03, we now accept connections from ROSE (not tested!)
USAGE
=====
When someone connects to the ttylink port of you system (usually port 87)
the inetd program will spawn a ttylinkd process. This process will send a
welcome and then ask the user to type in their callsign.
A talk invitation is then sent to the sysop with the given user name to
reply. If the sysop wants to talk to the user, they then use the talk
command.
Either party can finish the conversation in the usual way.
BUGS / TO DO
============
- Get some real documentation on ntalkd to make sure that I am doing things
right.
- Allow the sysop to be on another system (if users of ttylinkd want this).
