 Could this be why there's lots of BS, LW, MRPH etc clients?
Could this be why there's lots of BS, LW, MRPH etc clients?
The hostcache(s) is/are polluted by ordinary gnutella clients.
This is because people running opensource p2p were previously running gnutella, and are targetted by pings from gnutella clients who have their ip and port number from say yesterday.
The solution is for EVERY user of opensource to ensure that they use a different port number than they used for gnutella.
And I guess it means starting a new fresh hostcache from scratch - it won't just evolve to lost these clients, I think.
But I'm not sure if this is right. If these are gnutella clients, they are gnutella clients which don't discriminate against clients with incorrect handshake IDs.
Does this make sense? Or are there just a whole lot of people who've hacked their LW, BS etc clients?
How do I use telnet (or wget or something) to grab a connect id from an IP? |
