This is a collection of "services" available on CGHMN. It's intended as a bootstrapping point until we get something to help with discovery. Feel free to add your own services!

Chat

AIM

CGHMN connects to Chivanet's AIM service (running RetroAimServer). To use it, you need to sign up via http://chivanet.org/aim/. Once you have a screenname, you can connect from within the network with a client.

IRC

Hostname Port (non-TLS) TLS? Notes
irc.cghmn.retro 6667 no Bridged onto the regular internet and Discord
irc.loganius.retro 6667 yes, at 6697 Must register your nick with NickServ before you can start talking. You'll need working email for this.

MSN Messenger

TODO (maybe ask to federate with NINA ala ChivaNet?) - CursedSilicon

Email

You can run your own mail server on a .retro domain. If you would prefer not to (or want a backup), there are some open mail services (separate from general "hosting").

CGHMN Public Email Service (ala Hotmail/Yahoo/Gmail)

Webmail: available - Supports Internet Explorer 3 (in theory) as a minimum. IE5 on Win3.11 tested and verified working.

HTTP: http://cghmn-mail.retro

IMAP:: cghmn-mail.retro

POP3: cghmn-mail.retro

(both incoming and outgoing servers use the same address for POP/IMAP/SMTP)

NOTE: SSL is enabled but is not widely tested. Your mileage may vary. If you experience issues, just use insecure/plaintext modes for simplicity

How to sign up: message cursedsilicon on IRC/Discord.

Game servers

User Hostname IP Game(s) OS Notes
Loganius loganius.retro 100.96.9.6 ClassiCube & Halo PC Windows Server 2003 R2 Must connect by IP for Halo.
CursedSilicon cursedsilicon.retro 172.23.0.20 Battle.Net Linux Just works! Plays Blizzard games up to Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne
CursedSilicon cursedsilicon.retro 172.23.0.20 Westwood Online Linux Just works! Plays Westwood games up to Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge
Serena wow.chivanet 100.96.13.13 World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (Wrath of the Lich King) Linux Message Serena for an account

NOTE: Some services are "patched" at DNS level. Other games (such as Halo) require connecting to a server via IP. Check the notes!
