AmiTCP/IP is the first publicly available TCP/IP protocol stack for
the SANA-II interface. AmiTCP/IP provides an application level socket
interface to the Internet protocol suite as an Amiga shared library.
New Features in 2.2:
* AmiTCP:
- The interactive sessions have now a higher priority when
using rh(c)slip.device
* arp:
- Arp table dumping is now working
* netstat:
- Routing table can be dumped
New Features in 2.1:
* Inet-handler:
- With Inet-Handler you can use AmigaDOS IO to access TCP protocol
* finger:
- New application, prints information about local and remote users
* fingerd:
- Calls now finger when asked for local users. (This feature requires
Apipe-handler by Per Bojsen, Apipe-handler can be found e.g. on Fish
disk 783)
* ls:
- New application, an imitation of Unix directory lister. Supports
multiuser filesystems. Included as an example of user and group
database usage
* Napsaterm:
- Default window title is now the name of the remote host
- A public screen can be used with -S switch (thanks trossi!)
* SynClock:
- A simple script which synchronize clock in Amiga with
specified host in network
* AmiTCP:
- A timestamp is added to the log messages
- Faster checksum calculation implemented in assembler
* netlib:
- User and group database handling routines are added to the
net.lib. Release includes example databases for `ls' and `finger'
utilities, which use these databases
- A real gettimeofday() using locale is also added

document files. If you want to write your own applications or compile
AmiTCP/IP you need api, too. Number in the name corresponds to
distribution version. Printed documentation is currently up to release
2.0.
Unpack archives to directory, then read README.FIRST and HowToInstall.
