Hi *,
I'm getting deeper into it. I've now a version built with libsocks5
and connecting to a socks4 server. I'm still running into problems:
Below is the output of connecting to the cache and issuing a LIST
commando (not echoed):
--- snip ---
200 sysux02.system.ptv.de NNTPcache server V1.0.1 Jan 31 1997 ready

[dot] <- same here, should be only a '.'

Apparently, though in list.c in function doList() output is created in
correct order it is somehow swapped. The string 215 (defined by
NNTP_LIST_FOLLOWS) appears _below_ the list created during the while
loop! emitrn() and emit() both write to file descriptor 'clientout'...
emitrn (NNTP_LIST_FOLLOWS);
while (fgets (buf, sizeof (buf), fp))
{
[...]
emit (buf);
[...]
}
I'm confused. Could somebody please explain this to me?
best regards
ralph
