I can't seem to find where the default ports for the servers are on , specifically the webserver and the mud itself

Now I am quite sure they can be passed by using arguments, but what I am looking for is where it is actualy defined.

either it is put in a config file where I cant seem to find the reference to it, or it is set somewhere in a header or cpp file which I can't find in grep.

so simple question ... where are these set?

In comm.cpp, at lines 284 onwards are the following ...


    // set default bootup parameters
    fBootTestOnly = false;
    port = 4000;


The web port seems to be port+5, irc port seems to be port+1, and the mudftp port is port+6.

Thanks Nick,


If Kalahn just happens to pop by and read this , just a quick suggestion for a next release.

Can ya add the ports in a #define somewhere possibly dawn.h
just would make life a tad easier, specially for someone test a few muds all around the same port range


#define port 4000
#define irc_port 4001
#define webport 4005

etc... :)

Will do, I am in the process of moving to the UK (from New Zealand), in the next release in a few months a lot of changes will be included - such as this.

Did that ever get done? Since I'm playing with DOT right now and like it. I wouldn't mind seeing what the web stuff does. Tho the IRC one makes me wonder but hey anything is worth a peek.

In the code, you'll want to look for a function called 'do_look', which is what is called when players look at their surroundings. In there, there will be a line that displays the room name followed by the room description -- that's where you'll want to add the code that will output a dotted line.
