Question still not sure

Well, i'm still not sure, because i havent been able to connect
to it through xolox. In truth, you should just have to add
127.0.0.1 (or your own ip number) as a host in xolox (connecting
to one of the ports gnucache is listening to), but i haven been
able to verify that that acutually works. The only way i have
confirmed a connection between gnucache and Xolox is when I connect
to xolox through gnucache (confusing, huh...) by adding the loop back
ip as a connection. It shows that it connects, grabs a few extra
hosts, and (at least i think) acts as a bridge to the host list (or
atleast the 4 or 5 other connections). I havent tried using it again,
but i'll experiment some more. For right now, just try setting
gnucache to connect to about 5 hosts, change the 6346 port to
something else (probably 6347, another popular gnutella port),
and once you get a list of hosts, just add 127.0.0.1 as a connection
in gnucache. It should start out with a * infront of it (ex... *127.0...)
and then the star will go away if it connects. It will to connect
to the default port (6347), so if your client is listening on a
different port, you have to connect to that port instead. THis
should actually help out any gnutella client, so i'll try it with
gnotella (its easier to see the host connections).
