    IRC is just a telnet hack, so everything's plaintext

    Some server support SSL. An ssl plugin for mIRC is here: http://www.bovine.net/~jlawson/coding/stuntour/

  2. A similar CGI interface to a scrolling LED sign by BovineOne · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Send A Message To An LED Sign

    I set up a similar looking LED sign a couple years ago at work and we have an internal webserver that hosts the web interface to it (using Apache for Win32). The CGI interface is written in Perl, using a perl module (that I also wrote) that provides an minimal Perl API for the sign.

    When a new line of text is submitted to the sign, the CGI script also sends the text to our office IRC channel via a separate Perl IRC bot, so you don't have to be sitting within visible range of the sign in order to enjoy it.

    Full Perl source, a sample POD text output, and some pictures and screen snapshots are all available online on my website. (Note that no actual public interface to my LED sign setup is provided.)

  5. Re:are you going to the meetup? by Nugget · · Score: 2 · on RC5-64 Success

    There is no "guy who made distributed.net" -- it is and has always been a collaborative effort and the product of many people's time, energy, and dedication. Even cow, himself, the reason the project was named the "Bovine RC5 Effort" (in February 1997) doesn't try to take credit for it.
