Networking

The 1541 Ultimate (Ethernet version) includes a UTP socket, also known as an

Ethernet port, for networking. Having said that, there is no software included by

default. So here are a few programs that you can use with it:

WarpCopy A utility for packing/unpacking D64 disk images between your

PC and your Commodore computer.

WarpCopy is most stable if you use it to copy a D64 image

directory onto the 1541 Ultimate’s emulated 1541 drive. It seems

that copying to a real 1541 drive is not stable enough, there are

lots of timeouts.

Contiki Contiki is a set of tools (previously it was a graphical desktop

environment, but that has changed from version 2+) that allows

you to run a WebServer, WebBrowser, IRC client, and FTP

client as standalone applications.

Artillery Duel Citation from Leif Bloomquist's web page: “This is an "online"

version of Artillery Duel written to demonstrate the potential of

multiplayer games over the Internet with the Commodore 64.

It's believed to be the very first Internet-enabled game for the

good old C64!”

I found that WarpCopy and Contiki will work correctly for me if i have a DNS

server on my LAN. WarpCopy does not seem to require it, as it will work with a

UTP Crossover cable, but Contiki doesn’t work when a DNS server isn’t

available.

I have only tested the above applications using fixed ip-addresses!
