DC++

Oh, if anybody's interested, here's something I've made. It's used in a few anime hubs, and has GUI config, too

Sorry about my previous post, I didnt't read the original question too good (bad things happen if you're tracking a bug in a program for half hour only to find it was a stupid typo and then use the forum as the anger outlet).

Better use BSD if you intend to shape the traffic, it's easier.

RTFM, it's been there for a long time

The pictures don't show because they don't exist.

Personally I have no problem with that - what if the remaining two users can't download faster? I remember while using Danzig's limiter version I never actually saw my total limit being used, because it it limited only on a per-slot basis (I had 50-60 kB/s set as limit, 7 slots, and I rarely saw my ...

How does it do the limiting?

why is this better than having the OP's client send this?

This way, the hub has to process only 1 message. The display in chat would be used for the <Hub-Security> message, not the op's kick message...

Not minutes, times should always be transfered as seconds. I used minutes for the matter of simplicity - it's much easier to type 5 minute ban than 300 second ban, and IMO, a minute is precise enough - I don't see much reason why'd I want to ban somebody for 3 minutes and 17 seconds :) Another thin...

many of us is used to full duplex 10Mbit.... not our fault and yes most of our thoughts consern our own experience with dc. Full duplex? Full duplex just means that you can upload and download at the same time - all cable and ADSL connections allow this. There was a nice explanation why download sp...

It seems that some people have a hard time understanding that most of the world still has 512/128 kbps connections. I have 2048/512, and I'm very happy to have it. Still, without upload limiting my max download speed was around 10 kB/s... When I limited my upload to 61 kB/s, I can now easily downloa...

There is a program which allows you to play modem/LAN games over the internet, check out Kali

DCgui has some kind of encryption (for chat) planned... Maybe you could contact it's author...

there is no real way to block users from abusing it. The code source is open so they always have the choice to modify it so they won't be caught! Well, the genie was let out of the bottle long ago - first there was Alyandon's DC++ with upload limiter (B: in the tag), then there are two mods based o...

Why ZLib and not BZip2 ?

On the old forums, there was a proposal for $SlientKick - kick which wouldn't display the Hub-security message IIRC. I have another proposal - $xKick - extended kick: $xKick nickname $ tempban time $ display in chat $ reason | tempban time would tell how long would tempban last, in minutes display i...

Where can we get it?

What's SBhub? Another hub with VBScript support?
