Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning.

10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit.

13. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Default Host connections

The first time using 073 I had a few connections, but after about 20 min. all connections were lost.
All outgoing connection attempts had as disconnect message "Error. Packet too big. Disconnecting the remote host."
Now Phex just can't connect anymore.
I tried to use 072 again but this version is now also affected, same behaviour as 073

I also notice the same behaviour as described by unregistred, The Phex.hosts file is empty after a restart

For me it's the same since 070. Too little connections and only first hour (+-). After that no outgoing and almost no ingoing (1 per hour for cca 1 min.) But I don't see any error messages, just red connecting lines forever...

Question Connections

Hello RaaF, javier,

What OS do you use? Maybe you have trouble with your internet connection. I had no trouble to get as much connections as I want with phex 0.7.3 (current uptime 9h15m). Do you use a proxy?

Helge

Hi.

No proxy, no troubles with internet connection. I didn't try any other gnutella client but Kazaa works fine. But I don't like Kazaa.

Actually, I've had "this small number of connections" problem since 0.6.3. Then I got back to 0.6.2 but no change and since then its still bad. I think it all started when Morpheus (?) switched to Gnucleus but I'm not sure.

J.

Hi javier__d,

hmm, two more questions:
Are you able to connect to the Auto Connect Hosts? (If the Host Catcher is empty these hosts are tried.)
Does your IP address appears correctly under My Address?

Hi Helge,

I have no further internet problems.
I use Gnucleus and Shareaza without problems, I do use ZoneAlarm, and I give Phex access.
Never had problems until 073, But I noticed slow connecting, and problems keeping connections up since 070 ( not as bad as Javier describes, but we do seem to have similar problems )

I can connect to the auto hosts but I get "the packet to big" error
And my ip appears correctly.

Seems Gregor took a vacation at the right time

Hope you can solve this, greetings RaaF

Hello RaaF, hello javier__d,

which phex distribution do you use, binary or source? On phex 0.7 there was a problem with the binary distribution, maybe also on phex 0.7.3? I've never used the binary distribution.

I use Win98, I've changed some registry entries to allow more TCP connections, I never tried phex with less than 32 (8 is default). The key is: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTr ans\xxxx\Ndi\MaxInstance, where xxxx is a Number and ...\NetTrans\xxxx\DriverDesc is "TCP/IP".

Furthermore, I use the Hummingbird socks client generally, so I never used the phex buildin socks support.

Maybe one of these points helps you.

Helge

Hi

I'm on Linux using binary distribution for j2re 1.3. And now that you've mentioned the number of connections I have tried to increase number of connections (in phex) from 7 to 20 and have come to following.

A try to make an outgoing connection should be dropped after some timeout value. Mostly I see this happend with an error message "Error. Timeout while opening socket.". But some of tries to connect last much longer without beeing successfull. As the other connections drop after some time, this "BAD" tries to connect move upwards in my connections list and eventually fill all allowed connection slots and stay there. So phex doesn't try to make any new outgoing connections.
When these tries are removed manually phex starts to work fine (till it's not stuck with this tries again).

And still the problem with too short connections. Maximum time I see connection to hold is about 10 minutes.

And one more question: I have several connections (Incomming) from the same IP. Is it ok? Is it normal?

Thanx that You care.

Javier

This happens also to me, but more unfrequent (one in four hours or so) so this is not really a problem.

Either your IP connection doesn't allow persistent connections (perform a test with other programs) or other clients apply their disconnect policies (too many dropped packets etc), what is your TTL?

Same port? If not maybe a proxy connection.

Well, it is really a problem for me since it's 5 in 1 hour. Why phex tries longer than timeout for some IP's?

I think the IP connection stucks at an earlier point, before initialisation of the timeout. Maybe this depends on Java. You can search for and file a bug report at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phex
