Rc5 buffers.

[reddog4629]

Lets say I copy buff-out.rc5 to floppy. How do I zero out the old buffer or get an empty buffer to replace it? Same question for buff-in.rc5. I'm trying to build a sneaker type network. Seems like the thing to do these days. [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

I've found the safest thing to do is rename the buff-out.rc5 to buff-out.1. The cracker will then make a new buffer.

As for buff-in.rc5, take the partial buffer to the tcp/ip connection machine, stop the client, temporarily rename it's buff-in to something like buff-in.use, copy the partial buffer to tcp/ip machine, start the client, fill up the buffer, stop the client, copy filled buffer to floppy, rename buff-in.rc5 to buff-in. something (In case the floppy is bad or you have other problems), change the original buff-in back to buff-in.rc5, start the client and you're ready to go.

Got an error message and it posted it several times. How do I delete the extra posts?

Hmmm.. since I'm not sure I understand your question well enough to answer it directly, I'll just explain exactly what must be done when sneakernetting.

(assumed that buff-out.rc5 has already been copied to disk)
1. Do a full Flush/Fetch from the Internet machine.
2. Copy the buff-out.rc5 from the disk over the buff-out.rc5 on the Internet machine.
3. Move the buff-in.rc5 from the Internet machine to disk overwriting one if it's there.
4. Do a full Fush/Fetch from the Internet machine.
5. Copy the buff-in.rc5 over the one on the non-Internet machine. (once it has run out of blocks).

Sometimes what I do is I rename the buff-in.rc5 from the non-Internet machine and copy it to the Internet machine. After moving the newly received buff-in.rc5 from the Internet machine to disk, I'll rename it to buff-in.rc5, ensuring an easy transfer.

I hope that was easily understandable. If you have any more questions, do ask.

Just edit them replacing the text with a character like "." or "`" or even a space. Only admins can delete any posts.
