I'd like to test a network app i'm working on for school.
It's all written all i need help with is testing.
Point your favorite telnet client (yes i know... tellnet bad, ssh good.... but the assignment specified telnet) at www.darkstaranime.com port 50000 and the server shall greet you.
the game is pretty simple and self explanitory (guess my number).
The keywords recognized by the server are:
cheat - the server shall start/stop cheating. say it again to reverse the effect
debug - enter/exit debug mode (this is if you want to cheat)
quit - leave the game
shutdown - shutdown the server (it will respawn so go ahead and try it)
license - print the license the software is published under.
games - print the number of games that are currently being played
any other input is assumed to be a guess.
oh, and to prevent crashing my server the game will only allow 1000 simultanious connections.

from putty on a windows client the output looked screwy, I assume its a lack of CR and Windows by default wanting \r\n
Looked fine from a linux client.

| that would be correct. the server assumes your client is fine with endl being just \n.... if i have time i'll make it smarter....

in cheat mode the server cheats. if you want to cheat enter debug mode and the server shall tell you what it is thinking of.
in cheat mode it picks a new number every guess so you always have a 1 in 100 chance of wining.

thats because it was a telnet server. if you wanted ssh you should have tried port 22 like normal. but good luck with username/passwd!
don't break my machine please....
ant the tellnet isn't responding cause i rebooted the server so the script stopped working. i can restart it if you'd like but the assignment was due and handed in today so it was a bit of a moot point.
