|
|
I don't know what's happening, I emerged Amule 1.2.6, my 4662 port is open, and in the server information, it doesn't tell me I have a low ID, but my ID number is always under 1000000, I saw I was lowid, when I told myself to be my friend, then I was able to do a 'Show detail' on myself, which showed me I was LowId.
What's happening?! |

do you have an firewall inbetween you and the internet?
or maybe your isp is blocking the port? try another port.
cheers

if you have the firewall under your controll, then you could change the rules. if not.... then you have to live with the low-id stuff.

Out of curiosity, could you make a tunnel that goes from an interior lan to an external box with port 4662 open, using squid or something and go through that box without getting a lowid? _________________ Blog.

I had the same problem with port 4662, so I just used a different port. No more low-ID |

You can use a solution with iptables on the computer you use as firewall...
try this
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --dport 4661 -j DNAT --to-dest 195.1.1.2
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i ppp0 --dport 4661 -d 195.1.1.2 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --dport 4662 -j DNAT --to-dest 195.1.1.2
iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -i ppp0 --dport 4662 -d 195.1.1.2 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p udp --dport 4672 -j DNAT --to-dest 195.1.1.2
iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -i ppp0 --dport 4672 -d 195.1.1.2 -j ACCEPT
change ppp0 if this isn't your internet connection eth0 if you're using a lan for example
and change 195.1.1.2 to the ip number for your computer
It will relay the connection for these ports to the computer that is using amule...
Just a thing... if you get a lowid with that reconnect... one or 2 times amule and you will be in highid
That's a little part of my firewall... and it works
