Wireless Permission Program

Hi guys,i got an issue about creating a permission program using Modems…
I will explain situation…

•Player is desperate.
•Player saw my house.
•Player types "Permission" in the Computer.
•I see that someone asked for permission (Maybe in a monitor).
•Computer displays: "Someone asked permission to enter,give permission?"
•If i type Yes,the door opens and Player enters in my house.
•If i type No,a message says "Permission Denied" and Player goes away.

But (I'm noob with Modems) i cant't figure how to do this…can someone help me?

Yes easy. You first have to open a rednet modem port(

rednet.open(side)

). Then you have to set up the computer at the door so someone can type a message. You send this message with

rednet.send(id of your PC, read text)

and your PC is listening like this:

while true do --Listens as long as the program is active
id, text = rednet.read() - Listening to rednet
if text == "Typed text eg. permissions" then
shell.run("clear") --Clears the screen
print("Someone asks for Permissions")
print("Give access?")
write("yes/no: ")
reply = read() --Give the answer
if reply == "yes" then -- Do you allow it?
rednet.send("accept")
else
rednet.send("no")
end
end -- if text ==
end -- end while

While you type the computer downstairs uses this:

while true do
shell.run("clear")
print("Waiting for answer")
id, msg = rednet.receive()
if msg == "accept" then
print("Accepted. Please enter")
redstone.setOutput(side of the door, true)
sleep(5) -- Waits 5 seconds
redstone.setOutput(side of the door, false)
shell.run(Program name)
else
print("You are not allowed to enter")
sleep(5)
shell.run(Program name)
end

Where to write this? Lua or simply a Text document in Saves/World/Computer

Can someone please compile this for me?
I can't get it out with that code :D/>/>

OK Will do that for you :)/>/>

Thank you so much,bro…i'm sorry i'm a newbie with modems…

UP!

You can just use my code can't you? Copy it in one of your computers and edit the variables if you have to

I tried to use your code but it doesn't work…i write "permission" (Program name) and it does anything…
Pls tell me:
•Does BOTH computers need modems? (Open rednet)
•How much does the message for permission stay in my Computer?
•Need to write this by editing a program or in LUA?

-Yes
-Till you press enter
-Program

Yeah that is probably because noone sends a asking message. I edit it for you

rednet.broadcast("perm")
