Ok, I made a mistake with my original post saying that both clients were in passive mode. My other client was accidentally in active mode and gave me the extra search results. What's happening is apexdc++ (or any other dc client) is limiting my search results per user, i want to know if there was anyway to change that.
To make things a little clearer i run my own hub and I'm trying to make it accessible for a small group of users. All passive user limitations are off. Only having about 3 users on only getting 5 or 10 results per user is very limiting. Since the hub is so small I don't mind losing the bandwidth that this change would normally cost. I'm starting to get the feeling that this won't be an easy fix of checking a box.
Thanks for your quick replies and sorry about my mixups.
