Force_ultrapeer_mode?
 

My question is: is there a way to force my LimeWire servent as an Ultrapeer?

I am trying to do some measurement which requires that I run my Gnutella servent as an Ultrapeer. Probably because I didn't run LimeWire long enough, I was always a Leaf, although I didn't disable Ultrapeer capability and my connection and OS should qualify my servent as an Ultrapeer.

I understand that there are lots of considerations in deciding whether a node should be an Ultrapeer. But, is there a way to force my LimeWire to be an Ultrapeer? Reading through the code, I found that UltrapeerSettings.FORCE_ULTRAPEER_MODE looks like a property for that purpose. But setting it in limewire.props does not seem to have any effect.

Thanks.

Ultrapeer Mode
 

these are the options you must add in your limewire.props file to force ultrapeer mode:

FORCE_SUPERNODE_MODE=true
EVER_SUPERNODE_CAPABLE=true

Thanks. That worked.
