Oasis questions

Hi,

I have a couple of questions about Oasis, I've been trying to get it to
work, both version 2 w/ICE and v.1.35e w/NOS - and I'm not getting
anywhere.  With ICE, I log on & it starts sending and receiving packets,
but nothing useful happens.  With NOS, I can log on, but I can't get
it to read my IP Address.... what is the correct format in the dial.txt
file?
  1   send $GET_IP
  2   send $GET_IP\r
  3   send "$GET_IP"
  4   send "$GET_IP\r"

And finally, the reason I want to try them is to see if I can upload
with PORT & STOR - am I wasting my time?  Does Oasis support the PORT
command, or only PASV?

Thanks in advance,

Terry

Can't help with oasis2 but with 1.xx you don't specify your IP address
in dial.txt - you do it in startup.nos where you should see something
like this ...

ip addr [158.152.224.11]

... but this only works if you have a static ip address. If yours is
dynamic enter [0.0.0.0] whereupon Nos will obtain it for you although
I'm not certain there isn't something else that needs doing as well.
Someone else will no doubt say if there is.

    Yes, it's "ppp pp0 ipcp local address [0.0.0.0]" (pp0 is the name of
the interface, could be sl0 too) to allow NOS to accept the dynamically
allocated IP address.


Bye!    Bruno.
