There seems to be 3 or 4 issues with sockets, first opening too many too quickly causes an "out of memory" box to pop up, hitting the disconnect button seems to fix it, the box stays away after you clear it and Gnucleus continues working...


The total number of opened sockets reaches a limit per windoze session when I get an "illegal operation" in MFC42, this also seems to corrupt the TCP/IP stacks(s) since I can maintain or even re-establish a dial-up connection but no data will pass - even ICMP, including the DCC intranet connection, it kills the NetBEUI (udp 137-138, tcp 139) along with it, only restarting windoze will cure this

I *get the same thing* with the original Gnutella v.56 if I open a large number of connections a few times...

The weakness in windoze's sockets seems to be showing here (GetRight & Teleport along with SOCKSCap & VSOCKS all show this problem only if many sockets are opened fast)

note that I get an illegal operation box (which only exits Gnucleus) and not BSOD however the effect is the same - windoze must be restarted (including the network connections must be brought up in the right order otherwise it sets "default" IP's as it goes (the 192.168.55.x range)

This is a 5.min process on my hardware (firewall, dial-up, DCC, proxy, client DCC, dial-up server, dial-up, serial bypass, route add(s), proxomitron, browser) - then launch gnut on the gateway after this...

Reliability is important to me, I've found Oasis (which appears to be almost exactly the same as Gnucleus) and was wondering if you could tell me (or direct me to a specific URL) anything about it.

I swear it runs faster, seems quite stable, uses less resources (it's able to run without thrashing the HD for example) and has a few extra features

(comparing to 1.3.5 and 8.MB RAM wi***OSR w/ dun & winsock upgrades)

I click on updates/notes and nothings there... There doesn't seem to be any documentation for it
