Short: QueSO/6.6 find out what OS a host runs Author: alfier@iol.it (Alfonso Ranieri) Uploader: alfier@iol.it (Alfonso Ranieri) Version: 6.6 Type: comm/tcp Requires: Any Amiga with Miami 2.x Miami Dx registered -- What QueSO does -- QueSO discovers the OS running at a remote host. To do that QueSO sends 7 tcp packets: - 0 SYN THIS IS VALID, used to verify LISTEN - 1 SYN+ACK - 2 FIN - 3 FIN+ACK - 4 SYN+FIN - 5 PSH - 6 SYN+XXX+YYY XXX & YYY are unused TCP flags All packets have a random seq_num and a 0x0 ack_num. Each OS has standards answers to the packets above, so QueSO, reading from a configuration file of known OS answers, can determinate the OS answering. -- This port and the original author -- QueSO is a "real" port of QueSO by savage@apostols.org to Amiga/Miami; "real" because it was quite all rewritten for the Amiga environment. Refer to QueSO home page http://apostols.org/projectz/queso/ for other infos. QueSO runs only on Miami 2.x or higher and Miami Dx registered, because it uses Miami packets filter api. -- Changes from 5.x -- - made compliant with original queso 1.20 1998/09/22 - added queso.amirx -- Changes from 4.x -- - bug that makes queso search for its config file in current dir: removed - bug that dosn't make queso be broken by a ctrl-c if in usec delay: removed - bug that makes queso notice user that config file was not found after it's job: removed - silet mode removed - verbode mode added - changed all files functions calls from ANSI to AmigaOS, size smaller - config file opened just one time per session now - now if the config files is not found and -w is set, a new config file is created and user noticed; this is the suggested way to create a new config file - now miami and bsdsocket libraries are opened in queso code so no requester is opened if miami is not running - more errors report - default timeout changed from 10 to 5 seconds ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 10934 2881 73.6% 28-Mar-98 03:42:22 queso.conf 867 448 48.3% 29-Mar-99 21:43:02 CHANGES 14472 8366 42.1% 29-Mar-99 21:45:50 queso 2016 1078 46.5% 29-Mar-99 21:46:40 QueSO.txt 1475 768 47.9% 29-Mar-99 22:13:40 queso.amirx -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 29764 13541 54.5% 01-Apr-99 21:51:06 5 files
