Hublist
The source of the hublist running at http://dreamland.gotdns.org/PublicHubList.config is in cvs at https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=47459
I'd like to think there is nothing wrong with my hub , but looking at the dreamland hub list it comes out like this:
hubname | adress in the description field C:5091 | usrnr | adress
wonder, what is C:5091, alot of hubs have different numbers and a few have real descriptions... any info would be cool, thx

This means your hub has registered to the nmdc list, and is therefore picked up by my hubpinger, which logs into to your hub every now and then and then registers your hub on the dreamland list. The lack of description is just a, hm, slight deficiency of my pinger. As soon as it sees your hub again on the nmdc list, it will update the description.oGbGo wrote:I'd like to think there is nothing wrong with my hub , but looking at the dreamland hub list it comes out like this:

Any hub on my list without a C: xxxx is registering itself to the list, and is not on the nmdc list. Unfortunately, my pinger will also ping any hub that dual-registers, which is unfortunate, I might fix that sometime.
a different matter here.. I don't know if you noticed this sandos, but I tried scripting the NMDC hub to register to dreamland - but it does not work.
The remotehost is set for the winsock when it registers and is not read from the textbox in the hub but rather from a variable or something..
The only way to do it- is to make a hexedited version of the exe, and then the dreamland.gotdns.org is too long to fit in the string!

Hehe. Ouch. Why dont you write a relayer? Or havent you alread? I know a bunch of people did that when I first talked about my list, I never saw anything released though.aDe wrote:a different matter here..

Thats exaclty what i did, a while ago.. I hope the IP is staticsandos wrote: Hehe. Ouch. Why dont you write a relayer? Or havent you alread? I know a bunch of people did that when I first talked about my list, I never saw anything released though.
dreamregg.hopto.org resolves to 213.226.69.87
and the patched neomodus hub v. 1.00.25 is available for download at my server but i dont remember the address.. i'll let you know when i get home

Hub List propagation
I am currently registering my hub on the good ole NMDC list, and every now and then I get the dreamland pinger coming to say hello, which means at some point it synced with the neomodus list =)
From what I understand, the hublist on neomodus is what most other hublists use to sync themselves to... does it mean that if I register myself directly to dreamland, other lists won't mention me anymore (since I won't be listed on neomodus list, which seems to be where everyone syncs from) ?
Or do other hublists like http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/PublicHubList.config , or http://www.angelfire.com/dc2/full/PublicHubList.config sync from both neomodus and dreamland (and each other)... ?
In other words, how does the hub registration propagate exactly ? Is it exclusively from the neo list, or also from one list to another ?
I am asking because currently, I register my hub with a chr(160) at the end of the description to kindly ask gloSearch clients to skip my hub until I get a better connection to handle the load they generate =) Unfortunately, it seems that the c:5091 (actually C:3836 in my case)added by the pinger at the end of my description messes up the chr(160) detection in the glosearch clients.
I made an hex edit of the hublist.config file on dreamland, and the chr(160) is indeed there, properly registered and all, but (since it's followed by a space and C:3836) Glo clients still don't skip my hub, eventhough it's been registered that way for over 2 weeks now -I assume that's long enough for every client to re-download the hublist and notice that I now have the chr(160) flag-.
If I understood Sandos' posts properly, registering directly on Dreamland instead of via the pinger would get me rid of the " C:3836" and bring back the chr(160) to the last character position of my hub's description. However, what happens then with the propagation to other hublists ? (that's why I was asking =)

I did a dirty grep for "config" in this weeks´ http logs at the machine hosting www.mds.mdh.se, and I got 14114 downloads, and 7554 404s. This is due to this bug: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph ... tid=427632

Address change
This domain will not be valid much longer, so:
dreamland.gotdns.org will work for some time still (1 month maybe?)
and the new one will be:
dc-dreamland.com
I will also have to implement fake-checking soon, lots of fakehubs already. Ill also probably have to check hub from another hostname than the pinger.
Any ideas what to with a hub that registers with false number of users? Permanent ban? (this might be bad, ip-addresses change sometimes) Ban for some period? Correct the usercount?

One note: dont use dc-dreamland.dhs.org for registering, as it doesnt work. Either use dreamland.gotdns.org or dcreg.mine.nu.
dreamland.gotdns.org MIGHT disappear, though Ive been told it wont. Safest bet is probably to stick with dcreg.mine.nu, I will update that to point wherever the hublist is at the moment :)

Better yet....
Use this for your public hubs list.
http://www.netconnexions.co.uk/dc/publi ... ist.config
This returned me over 10,000 hubs.

Connecting address vs. registered address
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.
