Chapter 2
DNS Wireshark Lab
Look at some socket programming
We're going to borrow the virtual machine setup from Operating Systems
- Download and install the VirtualBox from VirtualBox.org
- Download and run the VirtualBox linux-Ubuntu appliance from here -> OS Appliance
- Start the OSC10e machine
- login and password are the same -> "osc"
- In the Virtual Linux machine, create a directory for our class (mkdir "DataComm")
- Start WinSCP
- connect to the loopback server 127.0.0.1
- this will let you use winSCP to copy and edit files
- drill over to the your DataComm directory
- Copy the following java files into your new DataComm directory on the virtual machine
- Back in the virtual machine, compile each one ex.) "javac EchoClient.java" -> this makes a class
and compiles it down to
bytecode ".class" file
- run server in the background -> "java EchoServer &" you'll get a cryptic message after.
- run the client -> "java EchoClient 127.0.0.1"
- It will be waiting for you to type some text in
- Hopefully, the server will repeat back what you typed in
- type a period when you're done echoing
