Subject: BLESSED CLIENTS
Summary: The compiled binaries listed under this category are 'blessed,'
which means that most servers will accept them at all times
(unblessed clients get booted out). There are two types of
blessing, reserved.c (old) and RSA (new). Most servers are
now accepting only RSA-blessed clients. With some RSA clients,
you need to use -R on the command line to enable RSA blessing.
-o enables old-style blessing.
Name: BRM-Hadley 1.7-2.2
Author: hadley@ics.uci.edu
Description: A version of Berkricksmoo streamlined for speed. Good
client for slow machines. Supports RSA, short packets, and
ping stats. There is also a FONTBASED version for the sun 3
which uses fonts instead of bitmaps for the ships; this should
speed things up considerably. Version 2.0 supports RCD's.
Supports TTS. This client does not expire.

Subject: UNBLESSED CLIENTS (Borgs)
Summary: The clients listed here are not blessed and will be booted out of
servers which do binary checking. These clients have various
features which aid standard human play (such as auto-aiming,
auto-firing, auto-dodging, etc.)
No binaries or source known available.
Subject: SERVER SOURCE
Summary: This is a listing of all known netrek server sources. Before you
try to set up a server, make sure your sysadmin approves. Also,
running a server takes rudimentary programming skills and the
ability to understand and use 'make' and other Unix tools; don't
expect to be able to FTP one of these packages and have a server
up and running with no effort.
