Which hub software is the best? Where can I find script XXX? Discuss it here...(no, this is not for advertising your hub...)

I have moved this to the Hubs and Scripts section. Check the sticky thread at the top of this section.

im only responding to this because sometimes people just dont get limited instructions, to host a hub you need a few apps, first go here then register and account and download DUC once you have it install it and then get YnHub and unzip it, now for the fun part run the DUC program you downloaded and installed, then log in using ur account you registered with at no-ip.com once ur loged in check the box with the address you made @ no-ip.com and make sure the face is smiling once its smiling then you move on to YnHub that you unziped just click on it and go to settins, from there you fill in your no-ip address in the required field and click save...everything from this point on is up to you, set the rest up the way you want ti, if you need anymore help let me know ;)

you don't obviously need No-IP DUC; this is only when your IP changes a lot.

and all you and todi and the rest of your little team just proved me right who care if I dont use a period I mean if they get what they need from it and they are able to progress from it ( they being people who ask for help ) does it matter where a freggin period is at? go through the posts and you will see all you guys have done is argue with me or make smart remarks, hot of 70+ posts not once have any of you tried to help instead you want to flex your internet forum muscle around and thats just sad at least im trying to help them and thats what matters

using a no-ip / dyndns / etc address shouldn't be related to hosting a hub; if your IP changes a lot, you already need such a program for DC++ or the client you use (to be in active mode).

and btw, in my country, most people have static IP addresses... :wink:

GOLIATH you make some good points, but although you might find it easy to read your posts back, it's really a pain in the arse and time consuming for anyone else to read them. I rightly treat those use trendy language, abbreviations, ebonics or are overly lazy with punctuation with contempt.

Anyway a no-ip account is a necessity because what if you change your ISP? All your users are gone. If you plan to casually run a hub with a few friends, your IP is probably all that is necessary.

my point here is not about the necessity of a No-IP / DynDns / etc account; of course, a host name is always better for users to connect to your hub.
it was about the necessity of No-IP DUC, which is a small program you can download and that will automatically update your No-IP host according to your IP. such a program is not needed for many people who don't have dynamic IPs.

i was saying that such a program doesn't have to be related to hosting a hub, because if you need it to host a hub, you also already need it to run a Direct Connect client in active mode.

true to some degree but over here in the usa where most personal users have dynamic ip addresses it is necessary because for example my ip address chances every 3 days or so that means i would have to give all users the new ip address everytime it changes plus, im not a big fan of giving out my ip address like that, example I give out my ip address it makes a hackers job that much easier if he already knows that more than likely I have ports 411,23 and 1411 open so users can connect to me....why would i want to do a thing like that?....I just prefer to give them an address such as dchub://djface.mine.nu and let them connect like that

well, lets say it again and try to make it a bit clearer this time...

When people were complaining about your posts, they meant that you don't seem to know a simple dot or a comma.

dots and commas split up a sentence to keep it readable.

or a simple whitespace helps a lot too.
try it in your next post, you'll notice the difference immediately.

no what I have noticed is the same 4 people are complaining and not one of them are the users who asked the question in the first place, its always some user who has nothing to do but read posts and complain about simple $#!T or an Admin on a power trip who wants to flex his internet forum muscle

actually, i complained about your answer because i thought you were trying to ask the user to use too many programs.

i'm saying it again, please get the difference between a No-IP account, which is of course needed here, and No-IP DUC, that program that the poster might not need.
and, if he needed it, he would already be using it for his client; if he was not using it, he didn't need it, and he won't need it to host a hub either. in the latter case, he can go just once to the no-ip.com website and enter his static IP.

now about your hacker thing, just to fix it up in your mind, it's very easy for anyone to get your IP with your host (atm, it begins with 24 and ends with 187).

You are correct about not needing the program, but I did say "over here in the usa where most personal users have dynamic ip" so I was offering Information based on that & what I knew to be a fact, yes he could go to no-ip.com and just make an account and enter his ip address but just in case he dosent have a static ip or dosent even know if he has static or dynamic ip (which I might also add he did not specify in his question) it would resolve any problems that may happen. Whats the worst that can happen if uses DUC? I explained it in a manner that would have a hub running for him no matter what with the exception of him being behind a Router/Firewall. To me it looks like you are just knit picking besides this is a old post, I mainly posted the info for users who can use it im pretty sure not all internet users accross the world have a static ip.....
