NewCs Server Tutorial By Ethereal

NewCs Server Tutorial By Ethereal
What you need:
•Broadband internet connection
•Static IP address (otherwise use a DDNS service e.g. no-ip.com)
•Cardreader hardware (e.g. Phoenix)
•An active serial port
•Installation of NewCS
When everything is ready, follow this step-by-step setup procedure:
Step One
Download latest version of NewCS. Create a directory on the drive (e.g. "C:\NewCS") and copy newcs.exe, mingwm10.dll and pthreadGCE2.dl files to that directory.


Step Two
In NewCS intallation archive there is \configs directory. Extract newcs.xml.windows file from that directory, rename it to newcs.xml and copy to C:\NewCS directory.

Step Three
Open newcs.xml in text editor. First, edit the tag of the file:

phoenix
Phoenix
COM1
357
odd
normal
yes
yes
No
No
No


no
no
yes
10001
Yes
no
round


and tags are interesting for us. In tag specify the serial port (COMx) on which you have a cardreader hardware installed. Also, specify the debug port for the NewCS server in tag.
Then, edit tag:

yes
newcs
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14
/tmp/users.txt

User1
Pass1
Off
on
no



User2
Pass2
localhost
12345
yes



In tag you set the DES key which you give to users, or leave it as default. Add some user in tag.
Modify the and to fit your needs. You can have multiple tags, of course.
When everything is done, save changes to newcs.xml file.


Step Four
Run command prompt (Start>Run>cmd) and start the newcs.exe (C:\NewCS>newcs.exe).
Now, you can test the server by connecting to it using NewCAMD, EvoCAMD, MGCAMD, WinCSC and other CAM emulators.
The data you give to the clients is following:
