Dear User, ibod is no longer maintained and there is no further support for this project. I have to say a big sorry for that but an immense lack of time keeps me from developping on. I made a submission for ibod at Unmaintained Free Software by Sourceforge. If you would like to adopt the project you may get into contact with me via e-mail or take a look at this page at Sourceforge. Additionally I'm posting thankfully some of the patch submissions many people made during the last months. Despite I was not able to incorporate their changes to the source you may try to do so yourself. Undoubtly they are nice work and may proof to be very useful once merged with the cvs tree. Here's a small forum with the patch submissions. -- Sincerely, Jan Obladen |
When the traffic passes a certain limit in bytes/second it tries to connect additional B-channels (slave channels) to increase the capacity from 64kbps to a multiple of 64kbps. The number of slave channels depends on the needed bandwidth. When traffic decreases under the specified limit the slave channels are disconnected.
The program is completely self contained and can be started and stopped at any time without disturbing ongoing traffic on the ISDN interface.
Xibod is a control panel for monitoring and controlling some of the behavior of the ibod daemon.
Xibod communicates with ibod over a TCP socket which makes it possible to run on any host on the network.
| Kibod is an implementation of xibod for KDE under development by Eva Brucherseifer. It takes advantage from the improved look and feel of this desktop environment. It is hosted under http://kibod.sourceforge.net. |

Making the source code:
Get a source release of ibod. Change to a writable directory - eg. your homedir - and type "tar -xvzf ibod-your-release.tar.gz". The source code should have been unpacked to a fresh directory "ibod-your-release/". Enter that directory and type "make".
After that, read the ibod.1 and ibod.cf.4 man pages. It should contain all necessary infos to run the program. A sample ibod.cf should have been provided with the tarball.
