SLP (RFC 2608) allows searching your LAN for services and works either peer-to-peer or with one or more directory servers. Unlike other browsing methods it can also work over several subnets (at least if your router can route multicast traffic). You can get the library and instructions (you need to run a small daemon on each system that announces services) at www.openslp.org. This patch adds: - a generic class for registering SLP services - a class to find your computer's LAN and non-public Internet address (replaces the code in configuration_hostname.cpp, should be more reliable and work better on non-Linux-machines) - generic SLP support for kinetd - SLP announcements when krfb/kinetd is open for uninvited connections (invited connections will not be announced) If OpenSLP is not installed configure should disable the feature. The code uses the SLP API as specified in RFC 2614 and it would be interesting to know whether it also supports the SLP library that ships with Solaris - maybe the configure script has to be tweaked for this...

For 3.1:
|
|
- write SLP service template for remote desktop protocols
|
|
|
|
|
|
Todo (unscheduled features):
|
|
- NAT traversal support if I can find an acceptable implementation
|
|
(probably using STUN as described in
|
|
draft-simu-midcom-stun-aware-nat-00.txt)
|
|
- split krfb into 2 separate programs (server and invitation)
|
|
- user/password authentication mechanism (kerberos)?
|
|
- SSL/TLS support?
|
|
- look into adding an extension to xfree to improve speed (get noticed of
|
|
screen updates) or maybe use the translucency extensino if finished
|
|
- cut & paste support
|
|
|
|
Known bugs/problems:
|
|
- the IP address sent in invitation may be wrong on multi-homed machines, and it
|
|
is always incorrect behind a NAT
