I could use the money but don't know anything about even small modifications to Android programs, even if you do have details of the server / protocol.
Also my written Swedish is far too rusty.

Det handlar om en mindre modifiering av ett existerande program. Sj lva
modifieringen skulle jag gissa handlar om ett par rader kod, men man

Jag hj lper g rna till med detaljer och information till den som tar sig

Skulle tro att det blir ett fast pris p jobbet. Men den ekonomiska

Thanks everyone for the offers. Right now I need to write some more code in order to test things.
I'll get back with more specific wishes in a few days.

I have a very strong suspicion what is in there, I just want to verify it.
When I looked earlier there were a lot of zeros. Guessing is probably not

If you don't have the system to unpack the zip and extract these files from
the saveset I'll be glad to send them directly. Otherwise I'm done digging.
This should be enough. The thing is, I was expecting it to be pretty much this.
It's just a couple of magic values that needed to be identified.
You have done more than enough. I do not expect that you have to do any
more. I eventually would just like to test/verify this against a live system. This
weekend probably...
That might be more of a problem... I don't have a MultiNet system publicly exposed.
Hmmm... But Process software does. They ones who ended up with MultiNet:

I did the Wireshark trace and doing a GET there is an initial exchange of

server is VMS and probably viceversa. Then the data delivered in the RETR
(separate TCP session as normal) is prefixed with a binary blob of data. The
format of that blob is important. I recalled that MadGoat FTP also
implemented this functionality (and interoperated with it - Matt Madison (of
MadGoat) ended up working for the MultiNet folks for a while). In any case,
over the years MGFTP became completely open source and is still
maintained by Hunter Goatley (the Goat part of MadGoat). The source is
available, but digging through the bliss code seemed a little harder than
asking Hunter Goatley directly which I've done. I'll let you know what he
says.
