 Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2005 8:04 pm Post subject: Replacement of mldonkey? |
 |
|
Hi all
I have been running eDonkey / mlDonkey for quite some time now, but I think it's a little out-dated now - especially because I have some troubles recently to download files correctly - and as I could tell from various posts on various boards, I am not the only one.
So, I am looking for a replacement - the important thing to me is that the software should run unattended on a (non-X) gentoo server and provides some gui on both windows and linux clients (web-gui is enough, but something like sancho would be nice).
As I think that apart from the donkey/mule-net, the bit-torrent net is the most important file sharing network these days, both should be supported.
Does anyone have any tipps?
thanks
thomas

so would I. im having alot of problems with mldonkey. slow downloads, no searching. i have used this to emerge
| Code: | | ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" USE="threads" emerge net-p2p/mldonkey |
because supposedly the threads flag was to improve support. in the end, i had just the same crappy performance. |

Here its a total different story. Please make sure you are connected to servers.
The default server.met URL changed recently, if you lack servers for a quick
start issue this command:
| Code: | | urladd server.met http://www.jd2k.com/server.met |
If urladd command fails use command add_url |

| There might be supplementary reason for slow speed;a few big servers have been taken down recently (the music maffia,the hollywood mob and some jesus clones you know) |
