Gnucleus won't connect
 
When I start GnucleusLAN it starts connecting but continues to do this forever

I've had that problem for the last two days - ditto with Shareaza, but not Limewire or Morpheus.. It's a pity though, since I hate adware..

Has there been a buggy evolution/new version?

Your Gnucleus is not up to date!

I'm having the same problem (ie: it starts to connect but never actually does)

I downloaded Gnucleus via the links on the Gnutella site (the links lead to file-front I think)

Anyway, I uninstalled it and tried to download it from the link posted by icarus2de above...

However, this time I just got an error message when I tried to install it ("GnucDNA could not load" )

...Where's the best site/place to download a stable version from?

The problem you are having is too many people out there that are firewalled (including yourself adding to the problem).
You have to learn a little bit before you go jumping into file sharing.
You have to learn how to port forward through your firewall. It's not rocket science.
If everyone is firewalled (and most people are now because of cable modem routers) then no one will be able to connect to anyone else.
There are less and less people with high speed connections and open ports, you all need to spread the word before this gets worse.
That's why you can't connect, as soon as you open a port everyone will come to you instead and you will be able to get all the files because "push" will work for you now.

Well, if you stop being superior and help him out, won't it work a lot better?

same problem
 
I am having the same problem. I don't understand Kfiler's explaination. Do we need to change gnucleus or our firewall to get it to work for everyone?

I have the same problem, I would like to know how you got over it. I don't think that the chap knew what he was talking about, as I set my firewall to allow connections from Gnucleus on all ports. In theory it should do just that, I should not have to forward any ports. Gnucleus uses random ports for connecting, so I don't know which ports to forward!

Sometimes it helps to watch what clients you are connected to.
Set your connections to more than 10, wait till you are connected to valid nodes like limewire or bearshare and then do your search.
After you get your results, set the number of connections back to normal.

The original poster also mentioned he was using the LAN only client, doesn't that mean you have to tell it who to connect to in a "buddy" list?

Try the normal client, the LAN version is for when a small group of people know who to connect to.

Post forwarding is a good keyword to put into google or to look for in your router's instruction manual, and normally 6436 is the port that gnutella clients use.

It's not just your firewall on your computer, if you have a router that needs to have port forwarding set up.
