DC++

I didn't mean to imply a hierarchical $Supports statement - though I can see the case for one, that's not what I'm proposing here. Rather, Meta just happens to be one of the $Supports arguments, and order doesn't particularly matter. Well, yeah. I thought about it a bit and I did eventually guess t...

sandos

The best suggestion I've heard to far involves: $Supports <blahblah, the usual DC++ supports> Meta <additional specific metadata types supported>| So the Meta subpart of $Supports ends at the pipe? What if we want to add another supports with a sub-supports? I would like something that clearly mark...

Great work!

And hey, if you ever run out of bandwidth, Ill gladly host them for you. My only probem being (unfortunately) cpu, so I dont know if Im capable to host .php scripts being accessed too much.

sandos

Note: the above is how I see things. It may not be the way they actually are. Its not necessarily how they are: I have contributed at most 10 lines of code of my own I think (cant remember what that would be?), and I also sent SedulusÃ‚Â´ 302 redirect code (which I only debugged once). So I wouldnt...

sandos

Or, even more general: make a simple stack-based query language (I believe G2 has this, maybe G1 aswell)

Nothing, since nobody is yet using it. (I think it needs to be enabled to allow uploads using zblock)

sandos

This is not good. Tcp streams are just that: streams. You should never rely on packet boundaries. Say the file actually consists of "$Canceled" repeated 10000 times, this makes it hard to know which one is actually a command, and not data. Well, I made a file, where $Canceled was at 0 offset every ...

sandos

Well, it seems to work like this, from what I've seen: (existing transfer - D = downloader U = uploader) D>U "$Cancel" U>D Keeps sending (presumably queued) data (8kb x 4 in the case I watched) D>U keeps ACKing data U>D "$Canceled" (in its own packet) This is not good. Tcp streams are just that: st...

You dont. This list is not available.

sandos

When you upload something to someone and try to download at the same time, the "acks" for your download are slower to get thru your line, slowing down your transfer greatly. QoS can fix this, AFAIK. I am in no way a QoS expert, but if acks have priority, I think your downloads will go very well eve...

sandos

What about radix sort, bucket sort and count sort then? ;)

sandos

Yeah, everybody: STOP USING THE FORUM!

sandos

What do you mean by current? The hubs in the list are being kept fresh by always-on programs, so... they are current.

sandos

I turned on this option after some odd behaviour of the list. This is just to let you know, there seems to be a few people registering from another ip out there.

sandos

Im also seeing this, but in my case it might be because I always rename the .exe to DCPlusPlus-<version>.exe even though Arne said it shouldnt matter. Also on 2k.

sandos

Basically, until you send MyINFO, your considered a searchbot? Sounds sane.

Ive never heard of any timetable for anything DC++ related. :)

I dont really see the problem with this. Encode away, and dont care if it comes out wrong. Either 1) your in a hub where most people are using the software you are, maybe even recommended/required by the hub 2) your in minority, and may be kicked for writing ugly stuff. Preferrably use the html-ized...

Im seeing hubs sending locks after the login sequence:

Code: Select all

$Lock 4141 Pk=Ag

Anybody knows why anybody wants to do this?[/code]

sandos

actuly the reason to do so woudl be to make it look like theres 1000 users and when they try to connect there told it's full and redirected to a diffrent hub and personaly i dont think there will be away to stop them from doing it theres a few diffrent ways a script can be made to show 1000 users h...

And Ive got the client online at the DC++ DevÃ‚Â´rs Lounge. [sunet]zblockenabled, if you wanna play. Its running under the MSVC++ debugger.

I tried a few files, two textfiles and 2 .exes.

Are you sure it didnt just relay connections to a real irc-server, i.e. a web-irc client?

sandos

Btw, Linux 2.6/3.0 (whatever it is going to be) will have a new epoll() which is supposed to be much more efficient and faster. Yeah, I know. Must say Im very surprised linux didnt have any better poll-interface. It seems that Freebsd has a nice interface: kqueue/kevent: http://www.kegel.com/dkftpb...

Its possible atm, but not for long.

Opendchub is the best hub I've found on Unix. It uses select() and spawns multiple processess for each 500 users (default, but configurable). I've tested it with ~600 "fake" (perl script) users on a p200/32mb and it ran without problems. Why does it do this? I know theres a limit on select() with r...

so what's the neo-modus pinger called? Or does it communicate with hub without actually entering?

It has a random nick picked from a list, but seems to have a static ip.

Ummm... what's the reason to have encrypted files if any program can read them? Oh well, that's M$ thinking for you.

It doesn't make any difference whether you allow [Sunet]Pinger in or not. In fact, my hub spends more time on the NM public list when I nameban it. But, the fact is, your chances of being on the public list at any one time are about 1 in 8 or so, because it rotates randomly. I personally find this ...

sandos

And IIRC there was some talk a few months ago on the dev list for OCN that there were vulnerabilities in TTH. Not sure what came out of it in the end though.

There is a new draft out, 02 that fixes collisions between internal nodes and leaf nodes. That might be it?

sandos

How lucky then that dcreg.mine.nu:2501 will work :)

sandos

I think we should let users use whatever client they prefer, and sollutions with long escapes looks very weird for others. My way might not be the best, but it escapes $ to [Ã‚Â§] and | to [Ã‚Â¦]. This way it doesn't look too weird for users on clients that doesn't escape this way. And they most de...

sandos

I wondered about this. I'm unfamiliar with the services that Bitzi has, but maybe we can use the hashes from the direct download links you're supporting to get back a bitprint (and thus TTH) from bitzi? This (optional) integration might allow us for some other nice features. You can only lookup fil...

One of the biggest bonuses with DC is the fact that I can share 120 GB of material and not have huge CPU drags. I tried using Shareaza & Phex (Gnutella clients) to create private networks, but they had problems handling the large number of files that I was sharing. What version of shareaza was that...

sandos

This is the problem with the one-true-hash idea, which of the web direct file links have a TT hash as their key? I'm also for one primary hash, and I would then go for TTH. My second option would be SHA1+TTH. Can't you create a Merkle hash tree with SHA1 as well? Just a random thought. Well you can...

sandos

True enough... all you really need to add to DC is File Hashes and multi segmented downloads and you've got the best of both really.... HaArD Well, minus the (possibly) much larger number of sources in bittorrent. Oh well, yes you can connect to multiple hubs and maybe get alot of sources in DC asw...

Fine by me ;)

Something like \u0000 for full unicode support would be nice. (Taken from Java) Shouldnt happen very often that people write that in a chat either.

sandos

Oh, ok. An invalid search is bad. Id go for the HASH>[value] form or something like that, even though it will use cycles in other clients. Searchresults seems to be a bit messy. I'm not suggesting returning hashes in normal results/searches, btw. I actually don't find it necessary to ever return ha...

I'm for some sort of XML exchange (mentioned in another thread), even formatted as a pseudo-filename... I agree with you that hashes are a form of meta-data, and having that exten\dable makes sense.

sandos

I actually dont know how to return results on this. Any ideas? A modified $SR might work, but that might be pushing it. New command? Or we could just return normal $SRs, but thats ambigous: they could be from another, normal search. But if the client doublechecks the hash (explicitly downloads the ...

sandos

Reinventing the wheel? IMHO these problems have all already been solved by the gnutella community. We should just pick one method to do this and stick to that, maybe even become "compatible" with another system. Shareaza works nicely for me, it checks segments on-the-fly when downloading and suppor...

sandos

While complete file hashing has to be done before you start to share (at least in my opinion) file-segment hashing can (and should) be done on the fly, while the user is downloading the file. My reasons for this is that the amount of data that can be saved increases quite rapidly when we start to d...

Shareaza 1.8.1.1 has been released, with a new TTH. It adds a 0x00 byte to every 1024 byte chunk of filedata, and a 0x01 byte to every 24 byte hash before feeding into the hash again. The author, Mike, says that this is finalized and is what will be used by bitzi.com aswell.
