Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. 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. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. 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. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

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. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. 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. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. 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.

Default Browser based GUI onto Gnutella protocol

Hello,

Does anyone know if it is possible to develop browser-based interfaces onto Gnutella functionality?

Thanks,

Rodger

What exactly do you mean by browser-based interfaces?

Access to the Gnutella-Network via a Browser needs a Program, which can be controlled via a http-interface (might be a good deal of work, but no more than for any other p2p-app).

If you mean: Implementing Gnutella in a browser:
Gnutella is a kind of search engine. You could implement a Gnutella search in a browser, by making it connect to the Gnutella-Network at startup. A search could simply result in a page, which lists the results. Downloads in Gnutella work via an only slightly modified get-request, and there are quite some free (and GPLled) Gnutella-Programs, some in Java, some in C:
http://phex.kouk.de - Java
http://limewire.org - Java
http://gnucleus.com/ - Windows, Microsoft Visual Studio 7.0 needed, COM based.


If you mean "Websites, which can be hosted in Gnutella":
Shareaza developed "collections", which are asically Websites, for which only a "*.collection" file gets downloaded, which is a zip including an xml-file, in which you can find magnet-links to all files which should be on that website. your client then downloads the files into the zip-file.

To distribute such a website, you need only to provide a source for the zip-archive with the xml-file, all other files can be downloaded via p2p (and even that initial zip could be served via p2p-networks).

Did it answer your question, or did you mean something else, which I didnt quite grasp?

On this note, I'm working on just that for LimeWire/FrostWire and it should be done within the week.

This sounds great!

Might it be possible to also port it to Phex? ( http://phex.org ) (it is also Java and GPL).

I'm assuming Phex is completely different (unless it is a fork of LimeWire?), so yes it can be done but it would take a while. Once I have completed the mod for LW/FW and have added all the functionality that I deem el neato, I'll take a looksy at the Phex project.

Porting the web-interface will most probably not be practical because of the different core functionality and the different ways of accessing certain data.

You could however reuse some of the code when writing a web interface for Phex.

That's what I had assumed. The code I could reuse would be the actual HTTP daemon side of things, which is fact less than 100 lines.

You should try program called MLDONKEY.
It is a big beast that support gnutella, overnet, edonkey and torrent p2p networks.

Its support 3 gui:
- telnet gui [text mode]
- browser gui
- "normal" gui [slow]


Its avalible to linux, windoze, solaris, beos etc...
Its good program but preformance is poor.
