I'm looking for owners of http and ftp sites that can host download page for the programs. I have
been using free hosting sites for more then two years now. Some time ago all such providers
started to delete accounts because they don't like direct links on the files that don't show their
banners. I understand that. Traffic costs money, and 1 MB of chat program can generate a lot of
traffic.
Intranet Chat is freeware program. Therefore as you understand I can't pay for the hosting but I
don't want to make it shareware in the near future.
If you like ichat, want to support it, have a web site and can afford additional traffic then
drop me a letter. But if you pay for
outgoing traffic, then probably this proposal is not for you since the site can result in 100
downloads a day or more.
If you provide me with a hosting page, I will put up a big “thank you” message to you on my site,
and I will put your company’s banners and links on the IChat home page. This is the only thing that
I can do.
Chat server version for Windows was developed by me.
Version for Linux ported by Vlad.
Initial testing the net 3rd house.
Linux version is ported by SteelDen to FreeBSD.
Official home page is here (sorry, Russian only).

You can find list of changes from original Linux version
here.
11.07.2002 (0.1 for Windows)
| [+] - |
Server put a lot of system messages in the event log if server where it tried to
connect to didn't work. It should not do this anymore but myself I could not get such
situation. So problem can be still there.

It's possible to use server (host) name instead of server IP to connect chat server to
another chat server. It's usefull when server has dynamic IP but static name. Parameter
"Host" is added in the server connection configuration for this purpose. You should use
IP address or host name but not both in the same time. That is not reccomended but host
name has higher priority.

Chat server ordinary application and chat server Windows NT/2000/XP service are in one
application now. It always shows icon in system tray even it it's a service.
|
| [*] - |
It's possible to install more then one chat server on the same server as service. You
just need to add two parameters when you install it as a service: service name (switch -n)
and service display name (switch -d).
IChatSrv /install -nIChatServer2 "-dIntranet Chat Server 2"
IChatSrv /uninstall -nIChatServer2
Attention: Second chat server should be in another folder and it has to be configurated
on another port.

It should work stable with slow/unstable connections/clients.
|
| [*] - |
Server-forwarding is supported partially. It can ONLY ACCEPT connections
and still can't connect itself.
|
08.10.2001 (0.03 for Windows)
| [*] - |
Added ability to connect servers to each other. It's possible to
connect them by different ways. It you have servers 1, 2 and 3 then
you can connect then like 1-2, 2-3, 1-3. But you also can connect
them only 1-2 and 2-3. In both cases all users will see users from
all servers.
Look in the readme.txt for how to do that.
