The stunnel.conf in the .zip needlessly loads the stunnel sample certificate, the one here: http://www.twofo.co.uk/resources/stunnel.conf has a load of extra security for servers (change user/group/root directory) which probably doesn't help. The minimal config file is: output = /tmp/stunnel.log pid...

If anyone dares to use a recent version of valknut they can enable "Adjust hub details in search results" in Options -> Connection -> Settings.

Excuse me, but what known filelist bug? Anyway, a new version of valknut is about to be released, including a fix for your sharesize being reported as 0 (for a very short time, not during all hashing). I know uploads cannot be started during refresh, but your filelist can still be accessed. I will l...

There's a good guide here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace .

I think you need to install libgtk2.0-0-dbg and libglib2.0-0-dbg and try again with gdb.

I couldn't reproduce any crash when running linuxdcpp under a different user on Fedora 8.

Yes, it's not a very helpful backtrace. 0x00000000 is a "null pointer", but ?? doesn't help finding where. I can't even be sure if the bug is in linuxdcpp or one of the libraries it uses. Report it on the linuxdcpp berlios.de project site if you haven't already, and someone more knowledgab...

Assuming the bug is in linuxdc++, you can investigate further by generating the backtrace with gdb. First, you need to compile linuxdc++ with debugging information: $ CXXFLAGS="-g" CFLAGS="-g" scons debug=yes Then run linuxdcpp inside gdb, which goes something like this: $ gdb ./...

Downloading from Valknut's search

If you're using valknut, and connected to twofo by creating a bookmark and checking the SSL box, you'll find you won't be able to download from the search dialog. It'll say you're not connected to the hub. You'll think "wtf?". The problem is that valknut has connected to hub.twofo.co.uk:41...

Root prompts end with a #, like this:
[root@localhost ~]#

whereas normal users end with $ :

Well back to the reading NTFS from linux, you don't need ntfs-3g to read files, the kernel ntfs module handles reading fine. As far as I know, there is no way to read or write a windows registry from linux. There is a program called ntfsfix (part of ntfsprogs) which is supposed to fix basic errors a...

Put this in a text file, say called twofo.conf:

Code: Select all

[twofo]
client = yes
connect = hub.twofo.co.uk:4146
accept = localhost:8000
then run "stunnel twofo.conf"

Then once stunnel is running, connect shakespeer to localhost:8000.

I don't have a mac.

However, I do know that the fink project provides a way to install all the common open source programs, including stunnel, onto a mac.

Have a look at http://fink.sourceforge.net/index.php and see if you can install fink, then use that to install stunnel.
