Thanks for participating!
(please post any debate, comments or problems to another thread, thanks)

Hi Annon!
 

Seems like if you're trying a run-alone..


i think it's a bit difficult to find users for your "new" protocol...

i want to invite you to the GDC, the new GnutellaDev Community, we want to improve Gnutella with a democracy between the developers, maybe you'll find your place there

join IRC #Gnutelladev

Follow this link to #gnutelladev:

Thx morg...
 

Thx Morg... ;)

np! :)

Morgwen

I don't know about you but after reading about Morpheus spying I am sick of this
211.11.204.18 port 6347
I tested it from work today and it works!
I have 4000 MP3's in my computer
please connect to me I am waiting
talking about this on IRC isn't going to cut it, do something!

had to find out the hard way so this may help
open a MS-DOS Prompt window and type
netstat -n
to display your IP there may be a better way but this i found

You are kidding....
 

Do you really believe through recompiling a client and setting this thread you can solve all of our problems?

and: do you think this IRC channel is the only thing we have at the moment?

No, there's already much more.
There's a new community waking up.
People like Moak, Morgwen, godxblue(peeranha), KathW, raphael, oovermars (gnucleus), tremix, etc, etc, etc are there and it will be much more in the future!

Then, there's a mailing list.

Also, godx started (and continued!) with an improved protocol.
And Moak's 0.7 proposal is in discussion

if you'd be on this IRC channel, you would know that, and you'd not be alone trying something

I don't want to further influence you. Do what you believe. If you think it's best splitting the network into gnutella and opensource, do that, in my opinion, the new GnutellaDev Community (name is 90% sure) will be more efficient than the old Vinnie-ruled GDF where the "improvements" are like monarchy (eat or die)...


i think you should at least have a try ;)

Hey! Im' game! sounds like fun
67.224.46.219:6347
2000+ files come get em! 24/7

whooo hoooo!

67.224.207.114:6347
24/7 or bust!

all this and no busy signals!

came home and looked at screeen 75 GB files available and growing! Whooo Hoooo!

Use me as a static host cache!!
24.234.19.159:6347
This is a static IP and should be good for a long time!
I put it on an old computer so I never will turn it off.
About 1500 files on there too.

New project site at Sourceforge! "Official" home page
http://opensourcep2p.sourceforge.net/

Project page is
http://sourceforge.net/projects/opensourcep2p/

Thanks for participating in the new OpenSource P2P Net!

Note: If you lose all connections, type a IP from the forum into the "Connections Advanced" box and click "Add". Once you type the IP in it will stay in the little box and you can just click "Add" again if you lose it again. Stick with it!

static host cache not passing many hosts
 

Hi, the static host cache isn't giving me many hosts - 1 or two every hour or two. And they usually don't stick, so usually the host cache is the only host on my list.

It is obviously passing my search requests far and wide, because I get a lot of decent search results and upload occaisionally, but I think ultimately we need some better software for a cache.

I wonder if you can try several different clients and see if different ones give away more hosts?

It gets better as more people connect. Stick with it!

New linux OpenSource P2P client - gtk-frutella
 

New Gnucleus version released! Check it out at the site
http://opensourcep2p.sf.net/
or

Kudos to whoever put up a static IP server at 24.234.19.159:6347
very handy! (and still up) Thanks!
And thanks to Simeon for providing a Linux version!

Keep posting those IPs here because the static one may go down! Anyone else have a static IP or cable modem connection?
Stick with it!

Great work Annon! Keep on your good work!

About more host caches. When your PC is online 24/7 with dynamic IP (DSL) then use a dynDNS... e.g. http://www.no-ip.com/. Now you have a steady host address (e.g. mynickname.no-ip.com) even when your IP changes, tell this hostname your friends. It works on Windows, Linux, BSD and it's free.

Hope it helps, Moak

and please take the time to set port 6347 or 6346 through your firewall or NAT, you will get better results, force a IP if you have to

Yeah, splitting up the community really helps solve the problem.

karlnapf.no-ip.com:6346
my computer isnt ALWAYS turned on, but very often :)

you're right
but ignoring the problem doesnt solve anything either
by the way....this sucks...i havent get more than 2 nodes since i try it out

I can't tell, think it depends on if they are behind a firewall or not. I get lots of search results back.

No host cache?
 

The last week or so I have been unable to connect to the one 'host cache' - was hoping it was something technical, but maybe the dude's just given up.

Dude who put up the permanent IP as a 'host cache' - please put it back up!

Nos

everyone needs to post a IP for this to become a network, do it every day if you have to
and/or use http://www.no-ip.com/

No offense to any of you OpensourceP2P guys/gals, but it just seems funny to me that for a network of users that want to distance themselves from the Gnutella network, you still insist on using the *Gnutella* Forums as a discussion ground. Shouldn't you at least try to get your own forums?

Nobody wants to distance from the GNUTELLA network... they try to distance from the bearshare and Limewire network!!! And they are using the GNUTELLA protocol so in my eyes it is OK if they disucss it here!

Morgwen

If that's the case, then explain to me why the OpensourceP2P client uses "OPENSOURCE CONNECT" rather than "GNUTELLA CONNECT" as a handshake (which means they are NOT using the Gnutella protocol... they're using a variant of it, but it's NOT the Gnutella protocol anymore if it's modified not to have any mention of Gnutella in it at all)... if they just wanted to distance themselves from Bearshare and LimeWire, they would just block those clients and continue participate on the Gnutella network. But instead they are participating on a WHOLE NEW network. Sounds blatantly like distancing themselves from the Gnutella network to me!

There are still compatible to the Gnutella network!

Perhaps the creator of this network want to add something?

Morgwen

Oh I have no doubt it's compatible with the Gnutella network. Aside from a few wording changes, the protocol is darn near the same. It would be rather unusual, however, after taking the initiative to start their own network because of the proposed problems they see in the Gnutella network, that they would care to make sure their clients were still compatible with the Gnutella network. As of yet, there doesn't seem to be a bridge between the two networks and I'm sure the originators of the OpensourceP2P network would like to keep it that way. After all, bridging the two networks would once again open up their network to the problems they were seeking to avoid to begin with! So, in other words, it sounds to me like they're gone and not coming back. Hence my question as to why they're still continuing to use the Gnutella Forums as their forums as well.

joe..... another bearshare lover
why does bearshare still use the gnutella network when everything on their site says its the bearshare network?
why does bearshare try to hide the other clients names on the screen? wouldn't want you to know that there were free, no spam clients out there now would we?
why do university networks not let normal gnutella clients connect within their private lan?
bearshare has its own forums, maybe you should stay over there

Great answer! I question why the OpensourceP2P folks are posting here rather than creating their own forums seeing as they don't seem to be part of the Gnutella network anymore and I'm suddenly accused of being in league with Bearshare. Impeccable logic! Hey bud, here's a tip... Get your facts straight before you start typing. Thanks.

I've tried Bearshare before, but it only crashed my machine, so I deleted it.... I've never touched it since. I mainly use Gnucleus and, at times, LimeWire Pro.... depends on what I feel like at the time.

So much for your "Bearshare lover" theory. :rolleyes:

Of course, now that I've admitted I use LimeWire Pro, I'll probably be accused of being a LimeWire lover now too (regardless of whether I said I also use mainly Gnucleus). :rolleyes:

Opensource P2P uses the Gnutella protocol to communicate, and if you missed it the modified clients can be used on both networks and can be used to create your own custom network.

Please send someone out to fetch the troll! (Yeah, better watch out for that evil Bearshare conspiracy)

IMHO, though, I don't have any problem with using this forum to talk about OSP2P (what a long-winded name!). It sparks interest in the Gnutella community, and besides, I'm not sure if they have enough support to start their own forum.

I'd post my IP, but I'm behind a b---ard router from Hell, and its owner will not be happy if I redirect a port.
