TidBITS#567/12-Feb-01
Computers breed dens of snaking cables, especially when you're
networking them together. But before you drill holes to expand
your network, read this week's feature article for a look at the
wireless world made possible by Apple's AirPort. Adam also looks
at how retailers have sacrificed inexpensive overnight shipping to
the altar of profitability. In the news, we note REALbasic 3.0,
look at Napster's recent legal blow, and welcome a new sponsor.

Subject: [*] Passenger 1.2 Server Account/Password Tool
Passenger is a server account creation and password generation tool that
will import tab and comma-delimited text files, ASIP 6.3 XML Users, and
folder names to create account information and passwords for AppleShare
IP 5 - 6.3, Macintosh Manager, Eudora Internet Mail Server, WebSTAR FTP,
WebSTAR Web, Edmark TNV, Master Spell and Master Key.
Usernames can be formulated from names using tags. Users may also create
user folders and set their privileges or define their own export formats
for most tab or comma-delimited export. Passenger uses an algorithm for
passwords so that they can be regenerated.
Standard Edition ($60) offers importing and processing up to 150 user
accounts at once.
Professional Edition ($90) offers no hard limit on the number of users
that can be imported and processed. Only limited by RAM and disk space.
PowerPC required, Mac OS 8.5 or higher recommended.
New in this version:
- Added Export for AppleShare IP 5.0 - 6.2
- Added Group Folder creation (allowing for Edmark True Network Version
account creation)
- Added Group import level to folder import
- Fixed Pupil Chooses Password in Master Key and Master Spell (setting
was reversed)
- Fixed check on master password for ASIP export
- <ignore> tags no longer import empty fields but instead completely omit
- Fixed minor issues with import limitations

Subject: [*] Snak version 4.5.4
Snak is a program that will let you participate in discussions in
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channels. IRC channels are virtual meeting
rooms on the Internet, where people all over the world can have
real-time conversations.
IRC consists of many different networks, often with thousands of
channels, each focused on a location or subject, and anything that is
typed into the channel will be seen by the other members. This makes
it possible to have a real-time conversation with people all over the
world.
You can also setup private channels without problems and use them to
have private, real-time talks with friends, family or business
associates.
The largest of the IRC networks often have as many as 35.000
participants and almost anyone can find a channel that talks about a
topic that is of interest to that particular person. It is estimated
that at any given time more than 80.000 people are using IRC.
Some of the most significant features of Snak:
Two powerful scripting languages - AppleScript and ircII.
Compatibility with many existing scripts written for other clients.
Uniquely flexible interface allows multiple channels in one window.
Easy access to MP3 files offered in the MP3 IRC channels.
A channel bar for easy switching between channels.
A consolidated list and information window.
A divided main text with resizable text and nickname areas for better
text display.
Version 4.5 introduces extensive AppleScript support, improvements to
the MP3 request list and address book, many useability improvements
and bug fixes.
A full version history and list of new features can be found on the
Snak web site at http://www.snak.com/SnakHistory.html

Well, first you have to prove to Apple that you purchased a qualifying
previous version of the operating system before they will sell you the OS
9.1 installation CD. That might be the problem.

Subject: Port 49152
When I list Network Connections with Interarchy, it always shows
listening (UDP) on local port 49152 (a non-standard port number). I
stopped all other apps and it's still there. True on my G3 at the
office and my G4 at home. I asked Andrew Tomazos
<andrew@interarchy.com> if it was Interarchy doing the listening and
he claims not. Anybody have a clue who's doing the listening? Thanks,
Bull of Blacksburg.
