Atlantis Talker is a talker based on NUTS. The talker runs as a service on a host machine and users can connect to the service using telnet protocol (e.g. telnet example.com 7000 when the talker is bound to port 7000 on the host machine).

The code in this repository is a copy of the code published on SourceForge as SVN by one of the original coders nicknamed Spartakus.

The code of the Atlantis Talkers, that runs at telnet talker.sk 7000, is not public.

Copy config.h.sample to config.h and edit config.h. Adjust DB* variables and path for temporary files storage. The path can be relative to the executable (in runtime folder) or absolute. I recommend using ramdisk for this purpose.

Use your weapon of choice to create a database. Or create database using the command line:

$ sudo mysql -u root -h <your_dbhost> -p
> CREATE DATABASE `<your_dbname>`;
> GRANT ALL ON `<your_dbname>`.* to '<your_dbuser>'@'<host_where_talker_runs>' IDENTIFIED BY '<your_dbpass';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> QUIT

When the database and talker are on the same server, use localhost as host for both - <your_dbhost> and <host_here_talker_runs>. Then use the provided database dump to populate the database with data.

cat db_dump/dump.sql | mysql <your_dbname> -u <your_dbuser> -h <your_dbhost> -p [your_dbpass]

On Debian based systems install these packages:

• libxml2-dev
• default-libmysqlclient-dev
• build-essential
• ccache

make HAVE_CONFIG=1 DEBUG=1

cd runtime
./atlantis

From localhost:

telnet localhost 7000

From other hosts:

telnet <yourhostname> 7000

Talker uses two ports:

• 7000 - for general use
• 7001 - for "wizzes" login (if they want to login as "invisible" user
