Telnet problem with atari server
petrkr opened this issue · 11 comments
Is there any chance do bigger debug to Serial console? I have problem with telnet--IRC bridge provided on ##atari channel irc.atarinet.com:800 When using RAW mode, it only print some telnet control codes and does not continue, if I will use telnet mode ON then it connect and disconnect imidiatelly (NO CARRIER).
I turn on Core debug and there is only this [D][WiFiClient.cpp:509] connected(): Disconnected: RES: 0, ERR: 128
Platform: ESP32
Build: latest master (in time writing issue)
SDK: 1.0.4

Have you turned on internal byte debugging? at&o1
Nope. But can try
Cool... On the ESP32, it should be very well behaved, but still worth mentioning: don't leave at&o1 on long: you'll run out of SPIFFS space. Best way to use the feature is to turn it on right before you do your test, and then as soon after the problem as you can: enter at&o0 to turn it off and dump the log into some terminal you can capture and study. After at&o0, the log will persist, so you can repeat that command to dump the same log over and over. It will only reset it next time you do at&o1.
You know, for ESP users such as yourself, I can easily make at&o1 also pipe to the second UART .. which is probably what you really want anyway...or, hmm.. maybe at&o2 :)
Actually, you can already do that -- pipe the detailed debug log to the second uart. The command for that is at&o88
huge amount of HEX Telnet session, hard for me. I need to study RFC then I can understand.
atarinet-log.txt
this is how it looks without debug and when dial from phonebook
So, the garbage might be your old computer trying to render telnet codes. I'd recommend trying ATDT2 instead of ATD2
ATDT will only ends with NO CARRIER. It is also visible in that posted log before.
I'll take a look at what irc.atarinet.com:800 is doing.
Well, I was able to reproduce the issue and peek into the details of what's going on, and the simple answer is: we can't get there from here.
Slightly less simple: the atari irc server is expecting screen-attached-client telnet negotation that a blind and dumb modem simply can't respond to, since the modem has no screen. Further, the built in zimodem telnet filter was designed simply to inform telnet servers how weak it is, and expects the server to be OK with that. Atari IRC is definitely not ok with that. In fact, even the Windows telnet client, which supports far more than Zimodem, is rejected by it.
The downright complicated. Here is a breakdown of all the telnet codes being sent, and the response sent by the modem. Basically Atari asks for the universe, and Zimodem says 'No Can Do". After all that, it disconnects.
The only good news I can give you is that I'm pretty sure I fixed those weird $ff pass throughs that were occurring, AND I added debug logging to capture the details of the telnet codes. As for your problem, I can't fix it from here.
Your only hope would be to find a true IRC client for your old computer that can handle all the features Atari is demanding.
