Re: When is browser NOT being used -- MIDRANGE-L

Marc

Thank you for your continued efforts

The default port of the WSG server is 5061.

This I know and once you have logged on, it changes all the time.

I don't understand that. The client port should change all the time (at new connection) but the server port shoud not change. It should allways be 5061 (by default).

No - it changes dynamically all the time once you have logged on - here is an example

http://217.204.115.107:5513/WSG/008113/QTMTWSG/QTWSG00160

The port is now 5513

It is the same thing for the telnet server. The client port changes at every new connection, but the server port still remains 23.

Yes - that is true

If I could test for port number then, if it was port 23, I would
know that I am using an emulator.
I don't know how WSG works really, but, if you look at netstat option 3, don't you have a connection on the port 23 *and* a connection on the port 5061 at the same time for a WSG session ?

In netstat option 3, for telnet the local port is given as telnet and for WSG it is given as 5513 for the example above. Port 23 is not listed - but it is presumably the one called telnet.

If my assumption is right, it could be an help for your problem.

If I could test for port number then my problem would be solved but I don't know how to do this.

What I wanted to mean is the following (excuse my poor english)

Excellent English

:
* the WSG exit program setup in a flag in a file for the IP address to say : hey, this IP address is using a browser

I am not aware of a WSG exit program. If there is one, then I could probably solve the problem as you suggest. Have you found one?

* in your kernel program, you retrieve the IP address using the right API and you test the flag

The API would not be relevant but the flag would be

* if there is the flag, you can say the session is coming from a browser * if there is no flag, you can say the session is coming from a pure telnet session
Something like that.
