- This is the beta release of a PC Gopher server for MS-DOS and MS-Windows.
- The program uses the TCP/IP library of the University of Minnesota and
- the Crynwr packet driver collection. The UoM TCP/IP package is included in
- a file IBMTCP.DRV. There are no packet drivers included, they should be
- obtained from the original sites. The PC Gopher server program has a size of
- less than 30 KB (50KB including the TCP/IP lib).
-
- The GOPHSERV package allows execution of other user programs and can
- therefore be extended to a more powerful server without recompiling the
- server program.
-
- A few utilities to build a Gopher server are included:
-
- - generation of links to specific files in a directory
- - simple database search engine using Borland's PARADOX P-Engine
- - documentation is included as a sample Gopher server system
-
- The GOPHSERV package is divided into three parts:
-
- GOPHSERV.ZIP (server package 30 KB)
- GOPHDOC.ZIP (documentation 7 KB)
- ENGINE.ZIP (database engine 137 KB)
-
- You just need the server package and documentation to run a server.
- If you download the whole package, you should create a directory GOPHER
- and three subdirectories (SERVER, DOC and ENGINE). Then place
-
- unzipped GOPHSERV.ZIP into subdirectory \GOPHER\SERVER
- unzipped GOPHDOC.ZIP into subdirectory \GOPHER\DOC
- unzipped ENGINE.ZIP into subdirectory \GOPHER\ENGINE
-
