JVArcServ - a server to locate specified archives.
JVArcServ V1.00 is now under beta testing and seems to be running well with a release version to be out soon. JVArcServ eliminates your woes in trying to find a certain file, and eliminates the "does anyone have such and such for file request" questions in the echos.
JVArcServ is based on the InterNet utility Archie designed at McGill University in Canada. This utility allows users to locate programs available via anonymous FTP from sites around the world. Since there are thousands of anonymous FTP sites around the world, each one holding several gigabytes of software, this utility was a great sigh of relief. There are now eight Archie servers in operation today.
FTN networks can sometimes give operators the same problems. There is lots of software out there available via file requests. The question is just "where?".
The server keeps a specially formatted version of each system's file list in the network. Users can then ask questions such as "Where is this filename," "Find this description," and "Does anything match this keyword?".
Some other interesting commands are also available such as "List nodes and zones covered by this server" and other such questions.
JVArcServ is as automated as possible. It will allow new nodes to join automatically through netmail, and new file lists will be automatically requested each month. The sysop running the server will only have to set it up once and then forget that it exists.
The idea behind JVArcServ is that one node in each network will run the server and maintain file lists from every other node in the network. The server will only be useful with the cooperation of all the sysops in the network to register with the server and keep undated versions of the formatted file lists.
JVArcServ and the file compiler also implements a routing system in the event that a node is long distance from the server. When the node registers, it can ask that its file list be requested from a different node. In this case, the node creating the file lists would send its file lists to this second node where it is to be requested from.
An echo for beta testers and technical support for JVArcServ has been created and it is available from 1:250/318.
JVArcFC, the program which creates the specially formatted file lists, is now available as a general release. It can be file requested from 1:250/318 as JVARCFC.
If you are interested in JVArcServ, if you have any questions, or if you want to set it up for your network, just send me netmail and I'll be happy to help you out. The server is now running at 1:250/318. To try it out, send netmail to "JVArcServ", and in the body of the text include the line "HELP". ===
