Talk:TOC protocol

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As of ca. Aug 18 2005, AOL has deactivated its TOC servers. If this remains the case, this article should be amended to put the TOC protocol firmly in the past tense.

The servers seem to semi-work... I get the SIGNON flap and subsequent "Keep-alive" messages but it does not seem to respond to "toc_signon". It could be that there is just a server problem, as there often has been in the past. Where do you get word that they officially shut them off? Right now I'm still using a client that connected on Thursday 18 August and is still working, but I cannot log in subsequent clients. --Andyluciano 20 Aug 2005 14:37:46 (UTC)

Other users have been reporting the same thing: currently logged on clients do not seem to be affected, but new logon attempts fail.

I believe AOL switched its TOC servers to the new TOC2 protocol http://snaphat.com/toc2 This should be added to the page.--70.152.35.146 00:15, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, they did change. I changed the article to reflect this and also started the TOC2 protocol article. syphonbyte 00:19, September 6, 2005 (UTC)
