A few protocol questions

Post by Madd0g » 2004-06-10 08:54

Hi,
I am aiming to create a mirc script which will act as a chat client on dc hubs.

I browsed the protocol specifications and tried to connect to my hub,
and guys - nothing happened.

no $lock, no nothing.
are the communications supposed to be in clear text or in binary?
am I supposed to send CRLFs before the hub sends me the $LOCK?

Any help or advices would be appreciated
thanks

I'd suggest you get Ethereal and use it to sniff what DC++ sends and what your mirc script sends - things will be much better with a real-world example of a login in front of you.
