FidoNet
point packages |
-
I made a FidoNet point package based on FEddy. FEddy was slightly changed
to make it possible using czech encoding (internal encoding was changed
to iso-8859-2 and external to CP895) and hence is this package useful
only for czech/slovak users. This package is provided as packages
for Redhat5.x systems:
It is necessary to setup properly configuration files /home/fido/.feddirc
and /home/fido/.ifcicorc and script /usr/local/bin/point! For more details
look into file FidoPoint.README in Redhat docs directory. (Last
update on 8 Mar 1999 - package contains now FEddy-1.4.02 and ifmail-2.14
was replaced by ifcico-3.0.cm.alpha-4.0.)
-
Another Fido
point packet based on Feddy-1.4.02 and ifcico-3.0.cm.alpha-4.0
was prepared by Peter Marbaise(pema@hippo.fido.de,2:2452/110.20). You can
cat it alternatively at ftp.gwdg.de.This
package has nice setup script for configuration of your personal mailbox.

Mailers |
-
Ifmail-2.x - set of FidoNet
compatible transport and gateway programs, running on multiple U*IX platforms
(Linux, FreeBSD, SCO, SVR4, SunOS and others). In cooperation with typical
U*IX e-mail and netnews packages, it allows to make a FidoNet node (or
point) on a machine running U*IX.
-
Ifcico-3.0.cm -
stands for "Internet - Fidonet Copy In / Copy Out", which is a FidoNet(r)
compatible transport agent. Currently it supports FTS-0001, YooHoo/2U2
and EMSI handshake protocols, Xmodem, Telink, Modem7, SEAlink w/overdrive
and crash recovery, Bark file and update requests, WaZOO protocols: DietIFNA,
plain Zmodem (aka ZedZip, EMSI flag "ZMO"), ZedZap and Hydra, WaZOO file
and update requests (nodelist flag should be XA). Password protected requests
are not implemented. There are plans to implement Janus protocol in the
future. Code based on unofficial ifmail-3.0 (by Eugene Crosser) which improves
i/o-handling over ifcico-2.x.
-
Binkd - Binkd is a
TCP/IP daemon for file transfer between two Fidonet systems. It supports
so-called "Binkley-Style outbound", also supported by most Fidonet software.
It uses it's own protocol called Binkp.
-
BinkleyTerm XE - BinkleyTerm XE is a
freely available FidoNet compatible transport agent and dumb terminal
package. !!new!!

Project Husky - The goal
of this project is to develop a complete freeware suite of fidonet applications,

should be comparable to now existing (and partly commercial) OS/2 systems.
To keep the configuration simple and reliable, all applications should
use one set of configuration-files.
