Hello, ps2dev people!
I am making a program that wil use TCP/IP to transfer files between different platforms.
I was wondering if it would be possible to make this program to the ps2 too.
Well, probably yes, but I need to know some little things to start on the ps2.
I am planing to make this program to run on Windows, Linux, and on the PS2.
For this, I will make some questions:
1) the ps2sdk provides socket-based tcp/ip programing?
2) the ps2sdk will support dhcp, or only fixed IP?
3) If it's socket-based, there is any guide/sample/tutorial on how to use its sockets?

Thanks!

ps.: it isn't a great project, (for now, at least) if you want to use a great file transfer program, use the uLaunchelf ;)

As far I know there is no documentation, but I guess the examples and source should guide you. Check the sdk's sources (ps2sdk\iop\tcpip).

Heya, thx, friend!
I've found the ps2ip.h, it have almost all of the functions of the winsock.h, but... What can I do to use an asynchronous mode? And the DHCP, the ps2sdk already supports DHCP?

Probably not. Look at existing programs that use networking: SMS and uLE. Both are open source and use the networking in a significant manner.

Hey, thx for the help!
I've searched a little more on my own and found that the SDL port provides multithreading, and I will use this to make my server then.
Thx for the help!
