Does anyone know if the NOS-BBS server at Carleton is down? I haven't got
any updates for a few days.

Hi, 
I'm writing a server module for a version of ka9q. I need to know how (if 
possible) to have a server module listening for connections on multiple ports.

Thanks

Hello Chris:

Would this be to have Gopher listeners on multiple ports,
or to have Gopher start a Gopher listener and a PhoneBook
listener simultaenously?

Best wishes,
Ashok

Check out the start_tcp() function in tcpsock.c. I wrote it a few
months back to get rid of the need for separate listener tasks for
each TCP service. You call it with the TCP port number you want to
listen on, plus the parameters defining a task that should
automatically be created when a connection on that port comes in. If
you call start_tcp several times, once for each port on which you want
to listen, and give the same task parameters each time, then
connections to any of those ports will spawn the same task. In effect,
this function provides a UNIX inetd-like capability.

Is this what you want?

Phil
