    The only problem is that I don't have linux so I can't test it
    ill test

    Crise and Balder: Yeah... the price has increased, so I don't see why the workload shouldn't either.
    I can see where your coming from; however to me the previous price was not attracting interest but now we already have at least on person (BM) saying that he may do it. a person how has monitored this thread since it started and has only now decided to say they may be able to help. Perhaps things have just started to hapen if you ask for more work you may lose the assistance you have already started to gain.

    I agree with crise here, this money is for the revconnect code and nothing else. Im a linux user and apexdc is the best dc client. i want one for my linux machine and the revconnect code is a must. none of the developers currently working on this project can do it so we need to give people insentives

    It seems you have ignored Bittorrent

    seeker has already said that he had the exact same problem with uTorrent so bit torrent has not been ignored.

    You have also said that

    I can of course do this myself, others can too.

    now i took this to read that you could provide a patch to the SDC project to fix your issue, if so do so. This is an opensource project after all.

    At the end of the day it appears that everyone who trys to talk to you ends up going round in circles. I think that your argument has been made and BM's has also been made. I have read the entire thread (it took a while) and i don't believe that BM has missed much from not reading your posts (more then likely because he did read them just not thourally). What i have noticed is that since pretty much the first page of (currently 9 thats #164 posts) i haven't seen anything new. BM says its hardware and wont be fixed by him (something i agree with) and you say it would be nice to have a feature to check files after they have been downloaded, this could possibly be a good feature but at the end of the day i think it is not something that will be used to much. it will take a lot of effort to implement and BM has already said it wont happen. I would therefore vote for this thread to be locked again and if lee hadn't already unlocked it would probably be locking it myself. I would however but in place a rider that if crise wants to respond it hould be reopened

    youu can check the guides section.

    he following guides would be most useful to you

    Fix: "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"

    Why cant i search

    How to get into Active mode

    Its quite possible that none of these guides are useful, If so can you please provide the following information.

    A screen shot of the connection settings (settings -> connection settings). You may want to blank out your IP addres and port information, if you do can you let us know if it is an internal or an external IP address.

    An internal ip address will look like the following 192.168.*.*, 10.*.*.* or 172.16-32.*.*

    Could you also post what type of router/modem (make and model) you have.

    Do you have any firewall running

    What OS

    Also just to eliminate the hub can you please try connecting to TechGeeks Online, the apex support hub.

    Configuring share skip list

    Apex has the ability to remove files from your share based on a list you provide. This list is configured in the Advanced properties tab

    you should enter your list of files in the share skiplist. files can be separated by a semicolon and you can use wildcards star

    therefore to stop sharing all dll and all cab files you could do the following

    *.dll;*.cab;

    to stop sharing your porn collection you could add *porn* i.e.

    *.dll;*.cab;*porn*

    to stop sharing your all files tht begin with the letter 'j' (i dont know you may be superstitious) you could add j*. i.e.

    *.dll;*.cab;*porn*;j*

    with the above in my settings my client will refuse to share anything which ends in .dll or .cab, anything that contains the word porn anywhere in the file name. As well as all files beginning with the latter 'j'

    *.dctmp;*.antifrag;*.bc!;*.getright;*.!ut;*.tmp;*.scn;*.asd;*.lnk;*.url;*.log;*.bad;*.missing;*.crc;*.dat;*.sfk;*.m

xm;thumbs.db;System Volume Information;RECYCLER

    Proper Skiplist the example is terrible for DC

    Logging Explained

    Ok below im going to try and explain the varuios Logging options. I am attempting top do this by backwards engineering the logging page and possibly takeing a look at the source. I am therefore bound to miss something so post it below and ill update this post cheers.

    On the Logs property filed you have four boxes

    • Directory -- The Directory that the logs area stored in
    • Logs -- A list of logs that you can store/collect. I tick indicates enabled
    • Log Format -- What information to log
    • Filename -- The Filename of the log

    Log Formats

    Here are the date and time log formats

    • %a - Abbreviated weekday name
    • %A - Full weekday name
    • %b - Abbreviated month name
    • %B - Full month name
    • %c - Date and time representation appropriate for locale
    • %d - Day of month as decimal number (01 - 31)
    • %H - Hour in 24-hour format (00 - 23)
    • %I - Hour in 12-hour format (01 - 12)
    • %j - Day of year as decimal number (001 - 366)
    • %m - Month as decimal number (01 - 12)
    • %M - Minute as decimal number (00 - 59)
    • %p - Current locale's A.M./P.M. indicator for 12-hour clock
    • %S - Second as decimal number (00 - 59)
    • %U - Week of year as decimal number, with Sunday as first day of week (00 - 53)
    • %w - Weekday as decimal number (0 - 6; Sunday is 0)
    • %W - Week of year as decimal number, with Monday as first day of week (00 - 53)
    • %x - Date representation for current locale
    • %X - Time representation for current locale
    • %y - Year without century, as decimal number (00 - 99)
    • %Y - Year with century, as decimal number
    • %z, %Z - Either the time-zone name or time zone abbreviation, depending on registry settings; no characters if time zone is unknown
    • %% - Percent sign

    Parameters valid for file transfer

    • %[userNI] - Users Nick name
    • %[userI4] - Users IP address
    • %[hub] - Hub Name
    • %[hubURL"] - Hub URL
    • %[fileSI"] - File Size
    • %[fileSIshort"] File size short form (guesing this is KB/MB/GB)
    • %[fileSIchunk"] - This appears to be the chunk size
    • %[fileSIchunkshort"] = Chunk size in short form
    • %[fileSIactual] = Get Actual file size bytes
    • %[fileSIactualshort] - Get actual file size in short form
    • %[speed] - Average Speed of transfer
    • %[time] - time of log transaction
    • %[fileTR] - file TTH

    upload parameters

    • %[source] - file being uploaded

    download parameters

    • %[target] - file name being saved

    Parameters for Webserver logging

    • %[file] - file been requested
    • %[ip] - IP addres making request

    Parameters avalible everywhere

    • %[message] - prints the message sent this is context sensetive
    • %[extra] - couldn't find this parameter in the source so not sure what it dose if anything

    Its possible that the 'Parameters valid for file transfer' are valid in all context, some of them can be used in the Filename.

    Ok so an example. the default Log Private message is

    Format

    [%Y-%m-%d %H:%M%[extra]] %[message]

    Filename

    PM\%B - %Y\%[userNI].log

    Therefore for every message the following will be logged 

    [ - a left hand bracket anything that isn't transformed is taken as a literal character

%Y - Year with century, as decimal number

%m - Month as decimal number (01 - 12)

%d - Day of month as decimal number (01 - 31)

%H - Hour in 24-hour format (00 - 23)

: - A colon, 

%M - Minute as decimal number (00 - 59)

%[extra] - includes IP and country code of the user, if related options are enabled, and this info is available 

] - a right hand bracket

%[message] - the message sent.
    This will produce a log entry like the one below
    [2007-04-03 11:54] <[Linux-Admin]Cheers> crise are you around
    ok now the filename this expands to 
    PM\ - this is taken as a literal and therefor sets logging to go into a subdirectory under the main logging directory.  eg C:\Program Files\ApexDC++\Logs\PM\

%B - Full month name

-  - A literal dash '-'

%Y - Year with century, as decimal number

\ - ba back slash meaning another sub directory

%[userNI] - the username of the person in the pm

.log - a file extention to put on the end of the file again this is a literal and could be .txt, .tmp or anything you want.

    Therefore the above log is saved in

    C:\Program Files\ApexDC++\Logs\PM\April - 2007\[Apex-Dev]Crise.log

    yea realised that after hehe whistling.gif thx thumbsup.gif i seriously dunno how to back up all my files though no space tongue.gif oh well that's my problem smile.gif I'll prolly find and borrow someone else's external

    and isn't it early for april fools jokes? lol it's only the 31st!

    if possible you could get a copy of partition magic and turn the 57 G you have free into an nfs drive. you could then copy your files over to that partition and then resize it to take up the entire disk. you may need to cycle through this a few times if you drive is bigger then 110G.

    Share skiplist - file names patterns specified there will not be shared (f. ex. *.dll;privatefile.*) Please confirm if "*" works for "name.*"

    you can get that from kevos guide. however i may do a guide specifily for the sharing options if people think its needed.

    Ok basicly what you have described is QoS but only local to your game. QoS = Quality of service. You are describing implmenting something in apex which allows you to maintain the quality of your gaminig services. However i dont want to argue over symantics and what you have describede is much more simple then what a classic QoS service/application would do. With this said my original point was that i dont belive apex is the correct application to do this. this is a feture for your operating system enviroment (or at the very least the specific game) and would be better placed in a seperat application or better still as a service of the operating system.

    ok i got the xubutu zip folder
    the file i linked to should have been an iso not a zip http://ubuntu-cdimage.datahop.it/xubuntu/r...esktop-i386.iso

    Zlobomir gentoo is not for the faint harted. however if you wish to continue on you will probably need the x86 not the ppc version, ppc is for risk architecture such as mac (pre intel).

    if you dont already have a version of linux installed you will probably find it easiest to use

    The live cd.

    The handbook

    You will also need the following if you are going to do a networkless install

    portage-latest (md5 check sum)

    Stage 3 (md5 check sum)

    hope that helps
