About
* Internet Helper is a useful application that is basically a suite of internet tools. It has the basic port scans, service scans, and fingers. But Internet Helper also has many more advanced features such as a finger file-on-demand system for distributing text files and an advanced client/server pair to test programs or interface with other systems. This program is made as a helper to anyone who does internet programming or to anyone who sometimes needs to work with the 'net. System: * You will need a PPC or 68K Macintosh with atleast 5 megs of ram and an internet connection of some kind. Features * Client/Server pair: Internet Helper has a client/server pair so that you may test internet applications, play with protocols, connect to wingates and SMTP servers and more. The client/server setup also is very useful for internet chatting. * Service Scan: This feature lets you scan for various open ports on a server or internet-connected computer. * Port Scan: This feature lets you scan for a certain port number among many IP addresses. * Finger and Finger File-On-Demand: This useful new feature lets you turn your computer into a file server. Users anywhere in the world can finger your computer with a keyword to receive files and information. As far as I know, this is the first Mac finger file server anywhere.
