GOPHERD 0.11 23.9.1994 GOPHERD is Gopher server for Novell NetWare 3.11. This is prerelease version. No searching, Gopher+ attribute blocks INFO, ADMIN, VIEWS only, etc. Read GOPHERD.TXT for info about installing and configuring GOPHERD. Included are two text files (G.TXT and GPLUS.TXT), describing basic Gopher protocol and its extonsions. GOPHERD reads info about documents and directories from text files with same format as used by Windows *.ini files. Two reasons : 1. Easy editing and understanding. 2. I plan Gopher directories management tool as a Windows application. Some other plans : - FTP gateway (from Internet to Novell LAN) - Support for VIEWS attribute block with Czech character coding Comments and bugs please send to cernik@kmat.fjfi.cvut.cz. GOPHERD is FREEWARE. Revisions : 0.02 Basic Gopher+ attribute capabilities. 0.03 FINGER gateway to Novell LAN. 0.04 Fixed bug causing non-accessible GOPHERD after first client request for attribute blocks. 0.05 VIEWS implementation, FINGER gateway 0.07 Better support for concurrent client requests, some fixes for VIEWS blocks. 0.08 Fixed bug causing bad selector to remote items. Only section heading from *.ini file is used as selector for remote items. 0.09 Construction of default view for Gopher+ items without explicitly defined view (compatibility with Unix/VMS Gopher client 2.016, thanks to J.Lance Wilkinson) 0.10 When no Gopher+ extension is used in client request, server answers using Gopher0 protocol (support for old Gopher clients). Some Gopher+ clients will not see Gopher+ information (HGopher, PC Gopher III, etc.). Thanks to J.Lance Wilkinson. 0.11 Better logging of requests and answers (still not the best). Change made in v0.10 reverted back, see new switch 'gplus_client_must_notify' in config file.
