Rich: I made a replacement one for my Win98 box that is a ColecoVision startup screen. BobS: now when he tries to get online to chat, the applet never loads jfcarbel: did you try a search on jungle.* BobS: ideas??? Rich: Probably a router block on the port used by the chat app. Rich: Which is 4321 IIRC. Guy B.: The wallpaper which has a panther on it, doesn't appear on Jeanene's new computer that I'm working on. Rich: I would have to look at the docs for the chat client. BobS: and this would be on doug's end or Dale's ?????? Rich: I can look when I get to the robot lab next time to look at the coleco server that has the backup chat on it. Rich: Doug's end. jfcarbel: I wonder if theme files are just glorified cab or zip files Guy B.: I know it's on the Win98 disk, I don't which cab file it is on. Judy: I am back and they say hi back jfcarbel: I'm behind a router, but no firewall rich+c: oh dear, how come not? rich+c: or is it a hardware firewall in the router? Pamela: I'm back - went out to say goodbye to Russell - he sends greetings to all Rich: Hi Russell. rich+c: on midnights this week? Pamela: too late, he's gone Rich: Re: chat client port, my pal in Finland uses his cheap college alumni dialup ISP service. Pamela: yes, Dad Rich: It blocks everything except ports 80 and 8080. Judy: Meeka says hi back, Pam Rich: So he can't do *ANYTHING* but look at a webpage...unless the server redirects the service to one of those 2 ports. BobS: BYE RUSSELL !!!!!! BobS: think he heard that ???? Pamela: maybe, Bob
(Guy B. gives Pamela a can of Diet Coke.) Pamela: thanks, Judy jfcarbel: I did nothing special with my router rich+c: it was kinda loud ;-) Rich: So I have a version of the chat server for him that runs on a machine with a free port 8080. Rich: And he can use it. rich+c: no, but some I gather behave as hardxware firewalls anyway Rich: I don't have that server running now...but I could put it up for test purposes if someone wanted to try it... Rich: Or I could change the port that the backup coleco server runs on. Pamela: if you change it will the rest of us still be able to use it Rich? Rich: Yes. jfcarbel: you can always open up a port on a router using port forwarding rich+c: anyway, jeff, why no firewall, especially when teh best ones are free? Pamela: Rin, is your mom coming by? Rich: Like I said, I think the port used by Spaniel Chat is 4321. Rinious Rouge: no she said she was tired but said to say hi Pamela: ah, okay jfcarbel: soon, looking at outpost or that other popular one rich+c: I have been using Zone Alarm for some time but they seem to be edging away from teh freebie edition jfcarbel: ZA thats the one rich+c: I'm hearing good things about Sygate (?) firewall jfcarbel: outpost looks very user friendly, anyone using it? Guy B.: That's the firewall I use. rich+c: jeff, go to www.pricelessware.org jfcarbel: Dr. D before I forget can you add me to the mailing list Rich: I just noticed Rinious Rouge, very silly, Rin. Guy B.: I have outpost on my notebook, but I plan to change to Sygate later on. rich+c: there you will find teh current top choices of real software mavens for best freeware in many categories Rinious Rouge: hehe jfcarbel: guy, you mean outpost or sygate? Rich: Sure, what E-mail address would you like? Rich: You can E-mail it to me, rfd@cwru.edu Rich: So you don't have to have it public here. BobS: heck guys, if you ues Win3.1 you don't get viruses Rich: Mine is already way public :-) Guy B.: Sygate I have on my desktop computers and Outpost on my notebook. I prefer Sygate as I like it much better. jfcarbel: Dr. D you should have it, I emailed you about getting some N&B editions Rich: Not sure if you wanted that one or not. Rich: I have Richard's box of N&Bs, but I won't be able to get to the scanning until the end of exams here. rich+c: btw Doc, when do I get my Adamcon t-shirt? Rich: I have to finish writing an exam to give tomorrow night, then a robot contest for a course I teach is this weekend, then 2 anatomy exams and a stack of lab notebooks...all to be graded by next Thursday. jfcarbel: Rich+C, here is a good site too - www.anova.org/software/index.html Pamela: wow, they don't believe in sleep at CWRU do they? Rich: When I mail it Richard, which means when I get to a post office, which means not until I no longer have daytime university stuff to do, there is no post office for packages on campus any more. rich+c: I have a long list, jeff - because I like lots of options so I'll check that out gladly james: no fair rich, you get to have all the fun :P Rich: I have not sold your shirt on E-bay, Richard, nor are the girls using it to cut Barbie clothes out of...
