Ver 0.668 downloading the same filelists over and over

Post by Guitarm » 2004-12-17 07:07

I've noticed that version 0.668 is downloading the same filelists over and over again. I've tried the tip from you Garg (sniffing the IP of a specific user with ethereal to look for the $SR) but I can't really see what's happening here.

If I got it correctly (in discussing it at DCDev Hub) DC++ thinks that these specific users have a file that I want. But obviously this is wrong.

Can someone point me in the right direction for solving this?

The only way DC++ would auto-match file lists is if it got a $SR that matched something in your queue. Did you capture any $SRs with your ethereal session?

remember that filelist-generation is done atmost / 15min when desynk occurs between share that has been hashed and actual share in the filelist. But i guess your issue lasts more than 15min?

Which version is the client you download from?
Everyone is supposed to download from the hubs, - I don´t know why, but I never do anymore.
