Hi all,
Reason: in the middle east, communication is difficult between missionaries because the government monitors all forms of communications. Any ideas? |

mIRC (Windows) supports encrypted chats. If you're looking for a IRC server for Windows that encrypts stuff you could try DICE. It has a web irc client but I don't know if it supports encryption. http://exe.adam.ne.jp/dice/setup.html ------------------ "Oh, bother," said the Borg. "We've assimilated Pooh."

hello,
Most of the time, the guys have to use various netcafe's. So it would be hard to download the script, then unload it etc... As far as server side encryption... I am not sure... Right now I have the server hosted on a nix box. That might be an idea in the future. Next time I go to the states, I might look into installing that somewhere for future use. |

I forgot... A while ago I programmed this... http://www.download.com/AFC-Communication-Tools/3000-2150_4-10574411.html?tag=lst-0-2 It has turned into my most unpopular release ever... I have pretty much abandoned it, however the source code is included in the download - incase anyone wants it. I am still not sure why it wasn't nearly as possible as any of my other releases. The source code is in RapidQ... Thanks again all... Very glad to find this site. |

A nix box. I may have to google this one. Actually I'll see if Kubuntu has anything in their repositories (I have to get an IRC server working anyway due to a project I'm working on) and let you know if I find anything useful. ------------------ "Oh, bother," said the Borg.

I know that there are many people over at the ICCM who have worked on this issue for a number of years for missionary work in "creative access" countries (no country is completely "closed"). While you have a chance of getting some good help here, I would seriously encourage you to ask your question over on the ICCM mailing lists -- from what I remember when I was more involved was that this was a common discussion that was brought up, and I'm sure that some of the helpful people there could give you suggestions. On another note, welcome to CCN! --clint |

so this would be for local missionaries to communicate with each other? |

Does anybody here at CCN think they could take a stab at an encrypted chat program? Ideas: It could do the encryption through a custom built DLL and use base it off of the date/time (GMT) coordinated with bible book number(1-66)/chapter number/verse number as well as having it run over SSL. Every message would have it's own specific encrypt/unencrypt key that the program could hash out but could not be unencrypted without knowing how the DLL worked. Something else that could help with this is if the users could log into a remote computer in the USA and then access the chat. Internet logs and local computer logs wouldn't show the data going between the computer in the USA and whomever they are communicating with. This could be done with VPN or Terminal Services or something like that. Just some thoughts |

http://www.byxnet.net/webchat/ Did some digging. ^ There's a CGI IRC client that supposedly has SSL encryption. ------------------ "Oh, bother," said the Borg. "We've assimilated Pooh." "Socialism works great... if there are no people involved." -- Pastor David Ginter, Union Church of Guatemala. |
