- I've pull both DikuMUD and also pennMUSH down, due to having an interest
- in MUDs now. Unfortunately, I can't get either to work properly:
-
- 1) DikuMUD will start up, however -- as soon as i telnet back into the
- system (i'm using a Tandy 4800HD laptop), I get a message about connecting
- into the game. I try to type something into the dikuserver program, but
- as soon as i hit any key...the connection is closed.
-
- I look in the virtual console that shows the server running and see
- that gethostbyaddr is having a problem, that a EOF was read on the
- socket, and one other warning came up (which i can't remember now).
-
- 2) pennMUSH will start up, but will kick me out also (along the same lines
- as what happens with Diku?), when I try to telnet into the system port.
-
- I'm not sure if there was a noticable change in the socket(tcp/ip)/uucp
- software since the people who ported the games had their's going (believe
- one was running .98.pl4).
-
- I'm running SLS .98.pl5 binaries that were pulled down from tsx-11 on 12/6.
- any ideas/suggestions welcome...
