[twsocket] Newbie- Telnet SSL with zmodem transfer
Greetings, We have a need to have the above described comm package. It is for a government agency and there is no choice but to support this configuration. I've looked at commercial packages and they are too high priced to distribute as part of our application. I am looking for components that will allow us to distribute a solution royalty free (although we may purchase components). I initially started looking with Delphi and found Eldos Blackbox with reference to ICS. Am I naive to think that I can come up with a solution for a Telnet/S with file xfer options(xyz-modem)? Thanks in advance for any replies.

I can't help you with Blackbox, even if they claim to support ICS. Maybe ICS-SSL is what you need ? -- Contribute to the SSL Effort.

Am I naive to think that I can come up with a solution for a Telnet/S with file xfer options(xyz-modem)? ICS handles SSL telnet quite happily, you would just have to add the zmodem protocol on top, which you can find for free on the internet, it's part of the Turbopower Async Pro package. Just sent the data as TCP/IP packets instead of async packets. But it's unlikely anyone will have done such an implementation already, zmodem is unnecessary in the TCP/IP world which already has handshaking and error correction. It's also not very efficient, I use an application daily that downloads and uploads using zmodem over TCP/IP, and throughput is poor due to continual acknowledgement packets.

[twsocket] Newbie- Telnet SSL with zmodem transfer
sorry but wasn't sure how to post back to the list and keep it in the correct thread, if this is incorrect let me know. you would just have to add the zmodem protocol on top, which you can find for free on the internet, it's part of the Turbopower Async Pro package. Just sent the data as TCP/IP packets instead of async packets. i do have asynch pro and have used it before turbopower quit, but only for serial connections not tcp stuff. its the last part - instead of async packets that i have no clue about. how do you make async packets into tcp/ip packets. i've searched the async list but can't find anything there to get me started. tia.

Re: [twsocket] Newbie- Telnet SSL with zmodem transfer
how do you make async packets into tcp/ip packets. A packet is a string of characters, it's independent of whether it's being sent using serial comms or TCP/IP. I'm not saying it will be easy to extract the Async Pro Zmodem code, but it can be done, if you don't want to pay for a package that includes it already (and if there is one). I'd done two jobs where private async protocols are converted to TCP/IP, trivial really.
