hi, i have set up a hub for on campus people only.
It is based off campus but will only allow people on campus to connect to it.

The Address is: ladcampus.kicks-ass.org:5555

I still have my other hub running for anyone to access which is: lad.kicks-ass.org:4445

Enjoy!!
Lad.

Good effort, but what's the point of separating campus and off-campus users? What I used to do on twofo was require on-campus users to have their connection speed set to LAN and all others not to LAN. This seemed to work well - I might reinstate this functionality.

If the hub only contains campus users, they will all be able to use an active connection to connect to everybody, no pissing about changing connection settings just to deal with specific users. This means a lot less load on the server (because it doesn't have to handle the searches so much).

the hub is based off-campus, which means the passive/active issues we have at the comment will continue to exist

you sure? the whole point of DC is direct connections to the other people, as long as each person is on campus the whole active/passive crap should not be a prob, every1 should just use active on my ladcampus.kicks-ass.org:5555 hub and it should all be sweet!

correct me if i'm wrong!

Hey there.

I get connection timeouts when trying to connect to ladcampus.kicks-ass.org:5555. Is there any reason for this?

I don't think ITS have blocked anything lost&found, they're just offline at the mo.

The only hubs up at the mo (that I knnow of) are...
essexisgreat.myftp.org:1500 and bigg.kicks-ass.net:4145
