Re: CVS commit: src/usr.bin/telnet

[maya%netbsd.org@localhost]

This is a distribution of both client and server telnet.  These programs
have been compiled on:
			telnet	telnetd
	4.4 BSD-Lite	  x	  x
	4.3 BSD Reno	  X	  X
	UNICOS 9.1	  X	  X
	UNICOS 9.0	  X	  X
	UNICOS 8.0	  X	  X
	BSDI 2.0	  X	  X
	Solaris 2.4       x       x (no linemode in server)
	SunOs 4.1.4	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	Ultrix 4.3	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	Ultrix 4.1	  X	  X (no linemode in server)

In addition, previous versions have been compiled on the following
machines, but were not available for testing this version.
			telnet	telnetd
	Next1.0		  X	  X
	UNICOS 8.3	  X	  X
	UNICOS 7.C	  X	  X
	UNICOS 7.0	  X	  X
	SunOs 4.0.3c	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	4.3 BSD		  X  	  X (no linemode in server)
	DYNIX V3.0.12	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	Ultrix 3.1	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	Ultrix 4.0	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	SunOs 3.5	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	SunOs 4.1.3	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	Solaris 2.2       x       x (no linemode in server)
	Solaris 2.3       x       x (no linemode in server)
	BSDI 1.0	  X	  X
	BSDI 1.1	  X	  X
	DYNIX V3.0.17.9	  X	  X (no linemode in server)
	HP-UX 8.0	  x       x (no linemode in server)

This code should work, but there are no guarantees.


Literally never tried since.

Config.generic:
        This file contains all the OS specific definitions.  It
        has pre-definitions for many common system types, and is
        in standard makefile format.  See the comments at the top
        of the file for more information.

Not a file.


Config.local:
        This is not part of the distribution, but if this file exists,
        it is used instead of "Config.generic".  This allows site
        specific configuration without having to modify the distributed
        "Config.generic" file.

Nope.

kern.diff:
        This file contains the diffs for the changes needed for the
        kernel to support LINEMODE is the server.  These changes are
        for a 4.3BSD system.  You may need to make some changes for
        your particular system.

stty.diff:
        This file contains the changes needed for the stty(1) program
        to report on the current status of the TS_EXTPROC bit.  It also
        allows the user to turn on/off the TS_EXTPROC bit.  This is useful
        because it allows the user to say "stty -extproc", and the
        LINEMODE option will be automatically disabled, and saying "stty
        extproc" will re-enable the LINEMODE option.

I hope that isn't kept anywhere.

telnet.state:
        Both the client and server have code in them to deal
        with option negotiation loops.  The algorithm that is
        used is described in this file.

Deleted.

telnet:
        This directory contains the client code.  No kernel changes are
        needed to use this code.


telnetd:
        This directory contains the server code.  If LINEMODE or KLUDGELINEMODE
        are defined, then the kernel modifications listed above are needed.

libtelnet:
        This directory contains code that is common to both the client
        and the server.

arpa:
        This directory has a new <arpa/telnet.h>

Not a description of our directory structure.

hth.
