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.

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. |

| I am trying to make simple component that makes a connection to a Gnutella client. Right now i managed to get a "GNUTELLA OK" reply but when i send back a ping message the connection drops. I read that i should send a ping after getting the OK from the client. Is this right? What am i doing wrong? The component is written in Delphi with the TWsocket component. |
| ||||
| PS: GodXBlue gave me another hint on IRC. Make sure you follow the protocoll specification for connectiing and send only 'GNUTELLA CONNECT/0.4\n\n'... and NOTHING more! Each extra byte is definitely wrong here and will corrupt your data stream, e.g. any following descriptor will be corrupted. |
| ||||
| When i send the GNUTELLA CONNECT/0.4\n\n string it is ok because i have tested it and i take a succesful reply (GNUTELLA OK). The structure of the Ping message that i send is exactly the same with the protocol specifications. The GUID is beeing created with the CoCreateGUID function of the Windows API and the TTL value is 5. Also the HOPs value is 0 and the data length is zero. When i am trying to connect to Bearshare at the Hosts Screen in the status of the connection writes 'Coming' and when i connect writes 'Temp' and counts about 5 seconds and then i get a disconnect time expired message... |

| You automatically get a "GNUTELLA OK" after sending the two returns (\n). When you will send extra bytes after the two returns, you will shift your binary data stream and every following descriptor will be corrupted... did you understand this and checked against it? Most existing clients will drop a connection when they receive bad data. Sorry, I have no further idea.... perhaps look inside existing code or test if two of your clients will understand each other? |

| You may have a problem with variable alignment if you created a structure for the descriptor and fill the members of it. Ofc it depends on the type of variables you used, your compiler and it's alignment. If you created your own structure (typedef struct {} in C), you may want to add a safety check at the initialisation code which tests for the sizeof() of the struct. |

| I made more tests with my code and after reading Ramihyn's message i found this bug(?) I declared a record for the header of each message something like: Header = Record ID: TGUID; Function: Byte; TTL:byte; Hops:byte; Datalength: Integer(???) end; in the last line i declared the data length as an Integer (it is 4 bytes) which is acceptable for the Gnutella Protocol but when i send a ping message with datalength value as zero the server got a response of 33 00 00 00h instead of 00 00 00 00h. So i declared Datalength as a DWORD (which is also 4 bytes) and the problem fixed. Maybe there are more bugs like this one... Thak you for your help... |

Well, for that, I will give you the records used in my Cultiv8r client Hopefully you can use them. Keep in mind that the records are packed! I'm using pointers to them, because I can easily reference them from memory that way - I read the entire message before processing. Code: Type
// AKA Descriptor Header
_PGHeader = ^_TGHeader;
_TGHeader = packed record
MsgID : TGUID;
Func : byte;
TTL : byte;
Hops : byte;
DataLen : integer;
end;
_PPong = ^_TPong;
_TPong = packed record // 0x01
Port : word;
IP : integer;
FileCount : dword;
TotalSize : dword;
end;
// BYE packet - this is a proposal, see the GDF
_PByeHead = ^_TByeHead;
_TByeHead = packed record // 0x02
Code : word;
end;
// Query Hit
_PQueryResultHeader = ^_TQueryResultHeader;
_TQueryResultHeader = packed record // 0x81
Results : byte;
Port : word;
IP : integer;
Speed : integer;
end;
// Query Hit Result set
_PQueryResultRecordHeader = ^_TQueryResultRecordHeader;
_TQueryResultRecordHeader = packed record
FileIndex : integer;
FileSize : integer;
end;
// Just the vendor ID m'am!
_PQueryResultFooterExtensionHeader = ^_TQueryResultFooterExtensionHeader;
_TQueryResultFooterExtensionHeader = packed record
VendorID : array[0..3] of char;
end;
// EQHD As used by many clients, ala BearShare
_PQueryResultFooterExtensionDataOne = ^_TQueryResultFooterExtensionDataOne;
_TQueryResultFooterExtensionDataOne = packed record
DataLength : byte;
Flag1,
Flag2 : byte;
end;
// The GUID at the very end of the Query Hit
_PQueryResultFooter = ^_TQueryResultFooter;
_TQueryResultFooter = packed record
ClientID : TGUID;
end;
// Push baby, Push!
_PPush = ^_TPush;
_TPush = packed record
ClientID : TGUID;
FileIndex : integer;
IP : integer;
Port : integer;
end; Code: function CreateGUID : TGUID; begin CoCreateGUID(Result); Result.D4[0] := $FF; Result.D4[7] := $0; end; |

| Thank you a lot cultiv8r... but i have them... except the snippet for the GUID markink... my problem is that i cant make my client to connect to another servant. i send the GNUTELLA CONNECT/0.4, i take the right reply and then nothing... even if i send a ping message the servant disconnects me. |

| You've got to make sure that the client accepts incoming connections and connections from a local host (local loop for example). I recommend getting Gnucleus, since this client is following the Gnutella specs quite closely. The more widely spread ones, like BearShare, have a tendency to do things their own way. It is also very important that you send nothing more for each packet than specified in the descriptor's payload length, hence my use of packed records, etc. The TTL should be > 0 and the Hops should be set at 0. If that fails, try outputting (like in a Tmemo object) what you and the other side have sent. -- Mike
