Hello, i just uploaded some stuff to Luis Villa´s machine, that might be
usefull for
LNP networkers. Here is an excerpt of the README:
Hi there, this is my first version of liblnp and lnpd.
WHAT´S IN THE BOX:
lnpd:
A LinuX daemon that allows multiple clients to connect to a LEGO RCX
running
Markus L. Noga´s famous legOS operating system and exchange messages
according to the LNP protocol.
liblnp:
a library (shared or static) that can be linked to your
application(s),
making it capable of connecting to a lnpd somewhere around the world.
applications:
2 little examples to show how it works.
lnptest is a program that continously sends messages to the RCX and
simultanously receives from the RCX. To see the multi-client feature,
just
start it several times at once.
dll is a port of Marcus´ program downloader that uses liblnp. It´s a
little
bit simpler, because lnpd and liblnp now do some dirty tty work.
What´s fine
with it: It works with LNP running at 4800 baud.
rcx:
lnptest is the counterpart to the PC lnptest mentioned above. It
starts 3
independent tasks sending LNP messages to the PC and receives messages
simultanously. To make this program work without crashing, you should
apply
patch.legOS to your legOS source and recompile legOS.
However that´s NOT necessary for lnpd and liblnp to work properly, it
just
fixes a little bug related to multiple tasks sending LNP messages
simultanously. The rcx directory is not included in the make-tree,
because
it´s just an example.
What Platforms does it run on ?
So far, i tested it only on my home linux box running kernel 2.2.13
and glibc-2.1.2. However, i guess kernel 2.0.x and glibc-2.0.x could
also
work.

| Just read my mail, and because there was a question where to find the stuff i looked at arthurdent, and -- Phantastic, Luis has managed to put everything in place. You will find it at: (URL) thanks, Luis ! I´ll now walk down into my dark and dirty (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
