Howto use Phex for LAN file sharing?

Thanks a lot - works wonderful :-)

That means, the firewall-detection of Phex did create the problems in the private network...

Thanks for testing!

And I'm glad it works for you as it's intended to

Please keep us informed of your experience!

First of all thanks a lot for all your patience and support. I am currently creating a phex-version for use in our student-hostel (studentenwohnheim) where even stupid users should be able to share ;-)

As I reported here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/feature-requests-bug-reports/65833-way-too-many-open-files.html I am having problems with too many open files. It seems that files that were opened for upload are not closed. (one file is opened about 100x for one upload).

Great to hear, that you want to use it in the Studentenwohnheim!

How big are the changes you are making?

And can we have a look, when they are ready?

Best wishes,
Arne

Not that big:
* Mostly hard-coded options (so everybody _has_ to share fair)
* Very simply Tray support (so that users can let it run in background), with fallback if tray-support is not available.
* Self-Search phex-instances in a very limited IP-Adress-Range.

Sure, its GPL after all (when its done). But its an implementation Nightmare, really.

If you might use JDIC for tray support I would be very interested in it or even better work together on it.

I used the Java6's classes (which were developed by JDIC) in java.awt, if users use Java5 it simply does not support the tray.
However my code is ugly and stupid - its really just a hack to fullfill a single need.

lg Clemens

Then... could you make it available as a Studentenwohnheim-Edition as soon as you finished it?

I think it would be great having a specialized fork for LANs, which people can just download and use!

Liebe Grüße,
Arne

Hi guys,
since the last post is one month ago, i'd like to know whether u'r progressing with the work with that Studentenwohnheim-Edition. We are just having the same problem here, and if u already did the work... i'd love to use it ;].

If you won't answer within the next 2/3 days, I assume that the edition is not worth using it due some reason (not finished? bad code? whatever..). If thats the case, I will try to do it on my own (in a clean way).

Another point: I'd like to have a feature for IRC-windows. If you don't mind, I will try to add that, too.

Short summary:
- private network contraints [limit hosts to given IP ranges]
- IRC support (ofc only client)

If you wonna help me, pls post sth I can contact you. If this would be a guy who already knows the code better than i do, it'd be great. If not, it's great too

In love,
<= mE

yes you're right. Its not worth using it.

Create your own.
