I am wondering whether it is possible to install something like a local/private "FICS" server in a home-LAN so that chess programs can auto-play over the home-LAN avoiding the autoplayer connection between two machines. I read in some FAQ that the code of the FICS server is free and can be found somewhere (to be precise:caissa.onenet.net). Despite the fact that caissa.onenet.net is down or cannot be reached for some reasons, I am not sure whether such an intallation of a private/local "FICS" server really works. Two questions: 1. is the FICS server code really free and where can I get it 2. is it straight forward to install a private client/server connection in a LAN. 3. are there better/other solution to play over ethernet connections Thanks for any advise! Joachim P.S.: my email address has changed: it is now denzler@informatik.uni-erlangen.de
