• Prealpha updates for Mystic and NetRunner

    From g00r00@21:1/108 to All on Thu Feb 27 13:52:38 2020
    yesterday with SSH but should still include the other enhancements. I think as long as I didn't randomly break anything else, there should be a significant improvement to the BSY system.

    NetRunner has been updated with work on a replacement Amiga font (TopazPlus 1200) but its a work in progress as some of the upscaling fonts didn't look right and so I hand edited the font a little bit. It probably doesn't look as good as the old mo'Soul font yet. I also fixed a couple things that could cause NetRunner to eat more CPU than it needed to in a few small places.

    Updates are for Linux and Windows.

    IT MIGHT BE YOUR KEYBOARD BUT THEN AGAIN IT MIGHT BE YOUR TERMINAL EMULATOR. TELL ME, IS THIS COMING THROUGH IN LOWER CASE? IF IT IS, THEN YOU MIGHT WANT TO HIT YOUR CAPS LOCK BUTTON THREE TIMES. IF IT ISN'T, THEN YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO THAT ANYWAY FOR GOOD MEASURE.

    I just updated the A46 prealphas for Mystic that repairs the thing I
    broke yesterday with SSH but should still include the other
    enhancements. I think as long as I didn't randomly break anything else, there should be a significant improvement to the BSY system.

    I upgraded to this pre-alpha, but both telnet and SSH no longer connect. Not sure if this is user error (e.g. mine) or something else, but going to downgrade just in case. Totally realize this is what pre-alphas are all
    about, so no worries, You are fixing.adding a ton of things right now and really appreciate it!

    I just downloaded a fresh Win64 install and they all work.

    I just tried a fresh Linux/64 and my RLOGIN and SSH are working, but I did
    see an error with telnet that I am looking into. Which is weird because I didn't touch telnet code that I know of.

    Are you using the latest cryptlib?

    I'm using cryptlib 3.4.4 (3.4.5 wouldn't compile).

    Well, the capslock key was off as that was my first thought. I toggled it multiple times. I'm on a different computer right now, so all is well. Must be the software I was using that had some kind of glitch.

    Initial test:

    - Telnet and SSH work in mis server mode
    - SSH does not connect in mis daemon mode (Telnet does)

    Unclear why daemon mode isn't allowing clients to connect...

    Ahhh see I didn't think to test in daemon mode. My fault :(

    But yes I agree this entire thing is really weird. I didn't really do changes in those areas that should affect daemon mode, so why it stopped I can't say. Unfortunately my day today is completely gone due to about 10-12 hours of meetings, so I won't be able to get anything done.

    But tomorrow I have a day off and I can jump into this. I've been also working on an updated FIDOPOLL too.

    No worries! I'm going to keep it in server mode using screen and it'll be totally fine. Get some rest :)
