quick background before my actual questions.
I've recently resurrected my Virtual Amiga since my wife threw away my A1200 ( she thought it was a spare keyboard). I was going to resurrect my CNet BBS 3.05, which actually is fully operational but not open at present, but I found it too limiting. Especially on outbound telnet/rlogin capability.
So, I'm thinking instead of a project similar to GameSrv on Win/*Nix. I haven't done any programming on Amiga in almost 15 years and not in C. used to do some arexx, ABasic, and such but since then mainly vb/batch scripts and VB/VB.net/c# on windows as needed for network administration uses.
so some questions are
1. Recommended programming environment C/C++?
a. DL location, additional items to support it?
2. Is C# available for 3.x OS?
3. Location of any source code that shows good example of inbound serial/telnet connection handling using serial.device and telnetd/telser on Amiga platform. I know I can do it in .Net in < 100 lines and be multi-threaded and all that.
4. Is there a lists of various Amiga BBS's MCI codes ( mainly CNet)?
5. Is it possible to have more than one Arexx port open in a program? If so, is there example code?
6. MobbyG - I your post about Python CNet clone. Did you find any of this information or anything else useful? I don't know Python so I can't help on that much.
