I connected my cable and I'm still connected to the hub. Yay!

There was a power cut (still is) immediately after that and now it's "unplugged", can't do anything. Had forgotten the Sify experience, so glad I'm on BSNL now :)

I hope I remember my IP address - if my IP is 192.168.32.70 (or 70.32), what gateway address do I use?

infernalproteus,I am also in pune is using following gateway. Depending upon which part of pune u are in, the gateway will vary.10.30.148.1 (ip address is also 10.30.148.X)
 
Right, I had totally forgotten - it was 10.30.32.70 :)

I was able to create a prototype in Java which does exactly what Liet's sistine does and it seems to be working. This is a pure Java implementation - I was fortunate enough to find a usable blowfish class in Java (thanks to the GNU cryto libraries).
Unfortunately I do not have an account so I see an "expired / inactive account" error message, but the fact that it has gotten to that stage itself is good enough.

Liet, I must say your reference code was excellent, all I really had to do was port it, and I realize there was much more involved than just figuring out the encryption. Guys, if you get another version of any other client, it's thanks to this dude. Awesome stuff; makes me feel like I've cheated... :)

Now, to complete work on the Java version (I do intend to release a java version this time) and the C version, I need a Sify account. Anybody willing to share auth details with me? If not, I'll buy an account later this week and continue working on it then.

Brian.
 
Send me an email on cranil7 at yahoo.com We will speak and then i can give account details. Mine is unlimited usage account!!!!
 
Thats cool tool, I wrote in one in Tkinter/python ages back for sake of GUI and still using it.
 
Thank you very much Liet for your awesome work in reverse-engineering the algo, this will help us sify users to have a decent way to connect to sify, and reliably (without juggling with the old/new protocol nonsense!).Great work! :)
