Chapter 293 Networking

In the afternoon, the people of the telecommunications company came to Sanhuo Technology to handle the telephone line and the network together, and let them wait for a whole week. In the words of the installer, this is already fast. It depends on the priority service for the sake of the enterprise. If it is private, the queue for a month is Normal. There is no way. When he gets here, he will go to his hometown according to the customs. Lin Hong feels the gap between domestic and foreign countries.

After returning to China, Lin Hong has not been able to surf the Internet for nearly two months, which is completely a kind of torment for him.

In 1996, the Windows 95 system had already come out. Although Lin Hong has the genuine floppy disk of this system, he did not install the system on his laptop.

Pan Pan and Xia Xia stood behind Lin Hong, watched him start the laptop, and then enter the system.

The picture of the

system makes them a little confused, because they have never seen it.

"What kind of system is this?" Summer asked. These days, the operating system he tested, either dos or Windows 95, has never seen such a system.

"linux, this is a completely open source operating system. It was originally initiated by a Finnish college student, and later more and more people participated in the writing. It has been developed for five years..."

While explaining, Lin Hong called up the source code of a dial-up program, according to the server address given by Telecom, and then modified part of the code in a targeted way, recompiled it, and quickly successfully connected to the network.

Pan Pan and the summer knew at this time that there were not only dos and windows in the world, but also many different operating systems, such as Apple operating system, unix, linux... and so on.

Pan Pan looked around for a while, and finally shook his head and said, "It doesn't look as good as Windows."

"Well, in terms of ease of use, Linux is indeed not as good as Windows for the time being. In fact, this is understandable, because most of the people who contribute to it at present are technicians, while there are fewer people in design. Programmers focus on functions rather than interfaces."

Pan Pan is not the first person to say so. However, you should be clear that Windows is a commercial software, and all code is not public. If you want to use it, you must pay the copyright fee, otherwise it is pirated. It is against the law in the United States, while Linux is open source and can be used and modified for free at will. In the eyes of technicians, Linux is more powerful.

"This operating system looks very complicated, and beginners can't master it at all, right? Besides, in China, it seems that it is illegal to use pirated software. Pan Pan continued, "Hongzi, if we install it for others, which operating system will be installed in it?"

"You can pre-install dos or linux, as for window

Let them install it by themselves. We can provide technical support, but not in the name of the company. Now that the company has been registered, you should pay attention to this aspect, otherwise you are likely to face the risk of legal proceedings.

Lin Hong is very ambitious. He is not only satisfied with being confined to a city or a country, but to go to the world. He knows very well that if they want to become a large international company, they must be cautious in this regard. Even when they started a small company when they were in school, they were almost caught by Texas Instruments, not to mention now?

Although it is not illegal in this regard in China now, it should not be too blatant. As long as you make a little change, you can avoid trouble in the future.

The pre-installed Linux mentioned by Lin Hong is not the version in his computer, but the official version released internationally, but they still need to customize it. For example, the internationally released Linux version does not have a Chinese version at present, and many software only provides an English interface. They are This can be customized to remove some unnecessary functions.

Summer is very interested in the Linux operating system. He understood what Lin Hong said about the meaning of open source. Compared with Panpan only concerned about the interface and functions of the operating system, he is more concerned about the underlying principles of the operating system and how its code is implemented.

Under the guidance of Lin Hong, he installed a Linux system on his computer in the summer, and then bought several books on operating system principles and programming languages to study.

In the afternoon, the router was installed and a small local area network was formed within the company, so that all three of them could surf the Internet at the same time.

Panpan and surfing the Internet in summer are mainly to learn and learn the latest information. Panpan mainly focuses on IT news, while summer focuses on technology. Because they don't pass well in English, they have a hard time. But they were not intimidated by this difficulty. One of them held an English-Chinese dictionary in his hand. When they encountered words they didn't know, they would ask anyone who was present. If there was really nothing they could do, they would look it up in the dictionary.

During this period, the number of Internet users in the United States has reached 20 million, but in China, the 2,000 ports in the whole capital are very empty, and there will be no line busy. That is to say, the number of people who have opened the network in the whole capital is less than 2,000, let alone other cities. No wonder, because it was not until January that the national backbone network was officially opened.

During this period, there were very few Chinese websites. After searching for a long time, they found a website called "Rifang Online" and only opened it for more than a month. Two years later, this website merged with another information website and changed its name to Sina.com, becoming one of the famous portals in China.

Later, several Chinese websites were found one after another, but during this period, there were about 100,000 websites in the world, but there were only a handful of domestic websites. Lin Hong's previous words were not wrong. During this period, the Internet in China was desolate. On the surface where there seemed to be nothing, it was actually hidden. A huge number of gold mines.

At this time, the domestic Internet speed is very slow, only 14k, only a fraction of that of foreign countries, and the cost of surfing the Internet is also very expensive. It costs 30 yuan an hour, but it is always possible to surf the Internet, so Lin Hong can only make do with it.

In the evening, he began to download data from the Internet, which was collected through his improved version of his super worm during this period and temporarily stored in a distributed network. Only when he took the initiative to ask for it, it will be synchronized to his computer.

This super worm was written by Lin Hong after recovering his memory to collect all the information about Claire and the mysterious organization.

Lin Hong has improved it, making it more difficult to find than before. When there is no other program to exchange data to the outside world, the super worm will not send or receive data to the outside world, and there is no exclusivity to other similar worms, which is truly absolutely secretive.

The data download took a long time before it was finally fully synchronized locally.

Lin Hong quickly analyzes these data. Once he encounters suspicious packets, he will mark them, put them aside, and wait for a detailed review.

A night passed quickly, and Lin Hong analyzed all the information collected. The final result disappointed him a little. He did not find any information that was clearly related to Claire.

In recent years, there have been many hacking incidents on the Internet, but in these public hacking incidents, the more mysterious Lin Hong has looked for them one by one and did not find any suspicious people.

"There are no clues left..."

As a result of this situation, Lin Hong speculated that there are two cases.

One is that the other party is no longer active on the network at all and fades out of the network for various reasons. But Lin Hong feels that the possibility of this situation is not high.

In another case, it is likely that his super worm did not infect the other party's computer. The biggest reason for this situation is probably that the operating system used by the other party is a type that Lin Hong does not know.

Lin Hong feels that this possibility is very high, because although Claire can't know how he achieved this, he has seen the power of this worm and will definitely not make the same mistake again.

Of course, it is also good news that no information has been collected. At least it proves that the other party is still tolerant and there is no big action.

In addition, Lin Hong also learned about the development of Bit messenger. At present, this software has been officially included in the gun plan. When Linux was released, it was released as one of the integrated software.

In the past few years, the bit messenger has been upgraded several times. The main algorithm and architecture have not been changed, but some details and interface have been improved. From this aspect, it can also be seen that the architecture designed by Lin Hong at the beginning is very robust. As long as this encryption algorithm is not cracked, the confidentiality function of the bit messenger will not crash.

Lin Hong regretted that Sam did not stick to it and was eventually sold to Apple and merged into their pda department. Apple's PC market has shrunk sharply and has been completely disintegrated by the wintel alliance. At present, Apple is working hard to promote their Newton series pda, but unfortunately the market response is not good.

Both Arthur and Matthew have been promoted to college and are still maintaining the operation of the Sam Association. However, Lin Hong has no intention of contacting them for the time being.

"The progress is still a little too slow." Lin Hong thought to himself, "It's time to hurry up. If you go to Guangz this time, it's better to finalize the supplier at one time.

After dawn, Lin Hong went to the airport early and took a plane to the south, where he would meet Gu Wei.
