To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
Sorry to bug the group but....
I need a recent version of NOS, that has a POP SERVER in it. While I
see reference to POP in the .MAN file for NOS_1229, there SERVER
portion doesn't seem to be compiled into GRI 2.0P, and others.
Certain local HAMS have their TNC tied up with DX cluster stuff, yet
still desire to be an active part of INFO-HAMS, etc...
So, if YOU have a recent version of NOS, with full POP SERVER (not
just the client) capability, PLEASE drop me an E-MAIL to:
PGD@osnnov1.adp.wisc.edu, or home@pgd.adp.wisc.edu
FYI, the onair%n9gbj.ampr.org@pgd.adp.wisc.edu alias expands out to
HAM IPers in Madison, Wisconsin USA, and has for some years.
Tnx,

What's about sending packet containing string like:
challenge value=18731293237, MD5 of password and challenge=
10198493b27c3de3af28ec29be6ab1929c ?

Please, let's not bring up this legality issue again. As far as I'm
concerned, using cryptography solely for authentication (as opposed to
hiding information) is perfectly okay by the current rules.
If you *really* wanted to squash this issue, you could use public
key signatures on every packet. Then anyone with your public key could
verify that the signature field really is what it claims to be, and
not a covert channel masquerading as an authentication field.

One of my BBS users has been having problems getting nos to run
on his T1000 laptop. From his messages, it appears that it will startup
but he cant any data in and out and often gets a TMP file error on the
floppy. ANyone know of this problem? I think the laptop has dos in rom
is this a problem?
