I decided that you have to specify a "passphrase" and then any PM with the "!refresh <passphrase>" syntax which matches the passphrases causes an immediate forced refresh. This is pretty useless IMO - a much better approach is that DC++ would automatically refresh the share when a requested file (w...

Try to send EXTENDEDPROTOCOL lock without the $Supports BZList, you should get HE3 list back. Otherwise you'll need a BZ2 decompression library (not zlib!) - ask aDe how to use it.

ender

It's not possible... And anyway, why would you want that?

If I understand the text in the Modify user command correctly, you need to do something like this:

+AddReg %[nick] %[line:Password] %[line:Status]

ender

Large scripts will work just fine - my YAMB is 150 kB, and StimBot is over 200... Just don't try to edit them in NMDC Hub.

ender

Hint (before you go mad "why doesn't this work at all"): curUser.sMyInfoString stays empty until the user actually sends $MyINFO - and that doesn't happen in NewUserConnected/OpConnected - you'll have to watch DataArival for $MyINFO

http://odc.sf.net/ -> click on the first link, then go to the docs page. There are 3 protocol specifications, one of them covers Client-client protocol, too.

There is a big difference between DC++ and that image: DC++ has a license that allows you to use it freely. There isn't any such thing at that image.

You can't

Some people just don't get it - without the upload limiter I had to close uploads all the time when I wanted to download something, with it I could let them be, and since I started using it my ul:dl ratio went from 0.90 to 2.2...

You've gotta be kidding! 1 kB/s on cable. Leech somewhere else.

This searchlimit should be different passive and active clients. active clients should be able to search more often than passive. What is a good limit? i don't know? what do you think? I'm ignoring the search requests in my hub if the client is sending more than 1 active search per 0.5 seconds or m...

ender

A "forced refresh" should be implemented into DC++, once / hour, to make people stop moving their shared files somewhere else to avoid uploading to people. Naah, it can take pretty long to refresh your shares, especially if you share a lot of small files from network drives. A much better approach ...

ender

Apps like BCDC++ ruin the DC network.

That's a stupid thing to say. BCDC can be easily detected, even if the tag is hidden and Lock/Pk are changed. If you don't know how to do it, you're not fit to be a hub op.
There are much more dangerous DC applications out there...

Windows-1252 is the Western Windows codepage. It differs from ISO-8859-1 in chatacters with codes from 128 to 160 (they're used in Win1252 but not in iso). Anyway, I'm only saying that this codepage should be used, since most people using DC use it. The only real difference will be seen with users w...

It is not possible, and I don't see any point in why would DC++ announce how many download slots does somebody have.

ender

Check the settings dialog before asking for features.

ender

In mature and well managed hubs, all shares consist of 90% orginal-releases with full .nfo, .sfv and no renaming of releases. In such hubs you don't have any need for the hashing. You never visited an anime hub, have you? You'll never find SFV checks there, and with popular files you can expect as ...

ender

Yes, hashing only the first 4k of the file doesn't solve anything - most corrupted files are missing something in the end (or in the middle) - if they were corrupted in the first 4k, they probably wouldn't work at all...

As for UniSearch, is there any detailed description available on how to use it?

you must send $ValidateNick after the $Key, after that, the hub will either answer with $ValidateDenide (the nickname is taken or it contains invalid characters), $GetPass (the nickname is password-protected), or $Hello.

FYI, I implemented $UserIP in my hub...

You can use as many scripts as you wish, but the more scripts, the more CPU power they need.

No part of DC protocol is based on any other standard protocol (well, except TCP/UDP). The Client-client protocol was posted on these forums, search around a little.

Ok, how about this: $xKick nick list $ ban time $ show in chat $ reason | nick list : nicknames, separated by space ban time : ban time (positive values: ban time in seconds, 0: just disconnect, negative values: permban) show in chat : T = show kick in the main chat; F = don't show it reason : kick ...

Sedulus wrote:shouldn't the $ForceMove be fixed?

I think that the only reason why $ForceMove doesn't disconnect the client (when using NMDC hub) is because Mr. Hess didn't know how to flush the socket before disconnecting it...

What about people who have faster connections? What if they, too capped their DC++ to 64 kbps?

Actually, you can, if the user is on multiple hubs (I've seen it several times, both with DC++ and DCGui).

better ask for $MyIP then, and the nickname part is useless IMO...
client: $MyIP|
hub: $YourIP 123.45.67.89|

Are there any big flaws in DC protocol? Better ask "Is there anything in DC protocol that isn't flawed?"

The whole protocol is one big mess - just look for the QuickList proposed by Nev, it's trying to fix one of the big flaws... and there are others...

In passive mode probably the first available port is used (it's probably left to the TCP/IP stack to choose the port).

If Arne decided, he could close the CVS and make the DC closed-source, pay-for version, since it's his program. However, since the souce code (before he'd have closed it) was released under GPL, he could not stop developement (also, he'd either have to remove all code that wasn't written by him, or ...

ender

The DC++ autoconnecting can be easily solved: if the client tries to connect before his tempban time is up, reset the tempban time and disconnect him. That's what I'm doing in my hub, and it works (but I, too send $Kick to the client when he's kicked).

ender

To tell the truth, I've been using the linux client, DCGui for some time, and it has no problems with downloading files from multiple sources at once... Actually, I never had a corrupted file, which wasn't the case with DC++...

ender

You can't change the protocol without having an option to use the old protocol... There are a few improvements planned, but only in the client-hub protocol, not client-client.

ender

Remember.. if another client logs in when this process is running, the winsock is not listening anymore, and client wont be checked. Therefore it is wise to create a array of winsocks to accept connections. However, that is not necessary if this function will run upon request, going through each cl...

Here's a pretty simple way to implement it: if the user requests a file that should be available (is on DC++'s internal sharelist), but DC++ can't open it, DC++ should automatically refresh the share and reply that the file isn't available if a user requests a file that isn't on DC++'s internal file...

Check your install folder (or if you selected multiuser install, the config folder) - you'll find Opera6.ini there (6 is the version of the file, not program
