Hello fellow OS9ers. This appeared in FidoNet's OS9_echo:

I saw a bit this morning on PBS's The Computer Chronicles which
|
|
featured a new interactive television system from Microware.
|
|
|
|
The system is called DAVID (caught my attention at once) which
|
|
stands for Digital Audio Video Interface Device and it uses OS9 as
|
|
its operating system. Note that it's OS9, not OSK or similar.
|
|
|
|
This appears to be a classic "industrial" OS9 implementation, with
|
|
the system resident in ROM and accessed through heirarchical menuing.
|
|
The interface device? A standard-looking TV remote control!
|
|
|
|
The software offers view-on-demand movies, interactive commercial
|
|
and retail services, weather and emergency connections and, of
|
|
coures, game playing ability. More, as well.
|
|
|
|
No fixed release date, yet, but very interesting, none the less.
|
|
|
|
OS9 lives on!

Actually, OS-9 is the correct "generic" term for all versions of of the
|
|
operating system. OSK is just a contraction of "OS-9 68000" or "OS-9 68K".
|
|
|
|
I believe that DAVID currently makes use of a 68k type chip, rather than a
|
|
6809.

Ian,
|
|
|
|
since it the difference between user/group and task is very important for me I
|
|
will try to find out the real truth about these Private Alarms. My hardware
|
|
vendors support division is happy about questions like this one! So whenever I
|
|
know something new, I will let you know.

Sb: #ftpd source ?
|
|
Fm: Gerd Gotthard 100135,262

To: all
|

|
|
Hello,
|
|
I would like to write an application similar to the Microware implementation of
|
|
ftpd. It would be great if someone could supply the sources of ftpd or a
|
|
similar utility.
|
|
ftpd solves some programming problems:
|
|
- ftpdc has no parent process (parent ID: 0), but it is forked by ftpd.
|
|
- ftpd has to F$WAIT for ftpdc. But it doesn't. ftpd accepts immediatly new
|
|
client
|
|
connections.
|
|
- ftpd cleans up any socket resource (no 'address already in use' errors)
|
|
|
|
Any help will be appreciated
|
|
Gerd

Check the LINUX archives. LINUX is a FREE implementation (and a GOOD one) of
|
|
Unix, and the sources to everything in it are available. You'll hav to do a
|
|
little bet surfing.
|
|
|
|
A good place to start would be ftp.infomagic.com or sunsite.unc.edu.
