It's possible to browse the contents of a server via the API, but it doesn't involve any file transfers. I guess it would be possible to add functionality to explore archives as well, it doesn't affect Hotline as such but will probably require a bit of magic so that nothing is "locked" while...

No web client interface (yet), it could be done "the old fashioned way" by using the current server API though - more or less. There is a rather ambitious dashboard in the works for both the Tracker software as well as the Hotline Server. The current extensions / capabilities are fine right...

Picked up from where I left off with Iris, and while there is progress there is a lot left to do before it can be released for testing. A sneak preview of the current status. Courtesy of Snow, Mac SE ROM and helpful documentation. As usual, at the core we have the most important and vital...

The first Beta of my instant messenger, Nyx, is finally available for download and testing. Due to VesperNet, I run an official Hotline server under its name, which in turn runs my own software. The Messenger tab at the website uses the API found in the Hotline server, and the account creation...

Another update before the Instant Messenger client and updated documentation is made available, the Hotline server (Janus) has reached 2.0.10 stable and comes with a fairly large update, it comes with a new method of storing files - HFS+ volume support. Still a bit on the experimental side of...

Tacked on some relevant new things at the end of the first post. I bet excitement is through the roof. Anyways, a minor note on the Hotline extension in the Bonus section, once the documentation with implementation details is released, creating yet another IM client for vintage / legacy systems...

It does not! And thank you for the link. My Hotline lineup simply follows ~sensical naming after a certain theme (Pantheon, Agora, Argus, Janus, Hermes, Mnemosyne)

This is a fairly ambitious project, while supporting (hopefully) all known Hotline client / server features, there are also extensions to the protocol. The extensions (and more) are available at GitHub, and yes - I use AI to assist with processing documentation. And no, I don't care about how...

> Current Focus Area Hotline, Web Server + Services. > Roadmap without the deadlines I simply do not like deadlines (does anyone?), especially if it's my own projects. Everything will fall into place eventually. Hotline Protocol Documentation With the help of current documentation in the wild...

The Tech Nearly everything that powers and runs behind VesperNet created by myself has been written from the ground up, nearly everything created is with a purpose to make improvements between each projects. Bit of back and forth as new discoveries are made - so I'm 100% confident that there...

> Intro Here we are again, there has been quite a few updates since the project announcement back in 2025. For those that know of the project since before, will probably remember MacDomain - that has retired from the public mainstream web and has since been rebranded as Arc. In short, VesperNet...

It shall be done ;)

VesperNet (2025) continues this year, plenty of updates with even more coming, a bit of a backlog due to also being in the process of moving from apartment to house with everything that entails. The updated post is over yonder.

you could also have a look at https://asa.mac.gdn/ and https://adc.mac.gdn/ respectively, the username and password for the FTP which Eric is using above is simply archive i believe the web links are also available over http. on another note, i don't think these are 100% complete, but it's...

There may or may not be minor hiccups with the module (old backend, stagnated code vs. browsers continue to develop) that produces that particular 403 message, the link to "solve it yourself" hasn't worked in years I believe. I might be disabling the entire module and look at implementing...
