I don't know of a lot of Nex Stations. However, I wrote a nex server last summer which I wanted to use to setup a nex station, but I didn't come around to get myself a VPS yet.

wow, thank you for sharing, i didn't know about nex protocol.
so it is not encrypted, and it has no headers. i tried telnet as described in specification:
Here is an example telnet session: telnet nex.nightfall.city 1900 hello-world.txt Hello world
but it looks like document is not there.
no uploads? not possible to upload something? or it is possible? i didn't understand that.
Try this:
echo nex/info/specification.txt | nc nightfall.city 1900 | less
I implemented nex (as well as other protocols) in astroget, and I have read a few things in nex. It is a simple protocol in case you do not want the complexity of the other protocols, although sometimes that is more simple than it should be.
I finally got around to spinning up a [nex link] server. It's a fun protocol! [nex link] [https link] (http proxy) Does anyone else use it? I searched around and found a couple of dead links, but only one other active server besides nightfall.city. [nex link] [preformatted]
