MorphOS: MLdonkey 2.6.3 veröffentlicht
MLdonkey is a multi-platform multi-networks peer-to-peer client. Originally, it was the first open-source client to access the eDonkey network. The protocol was 'reverse-engineered' using an efficient protocol sniffer, Pandora.

The MorphOS port of the client has been updated to version 2.6.3 and can be downloaded at the title link.

Changes in the MorphOS release package:
  • new build 2.6.3 (see below)
  • tools (ed2k_hash, get_range, make_torrent, etc.) added again
  • new server.ini
  • up-to-date guardian.p2p
  • "MLdonkey" startscript changed to handle mlnet.pid after system crash and different locations of the settings directory
  • updated documentation (... and please RTFM!)
Important changes in mlnet since last MorphOS release:

Core:
  • create ini file backups on shutdown
  • bunch of new options to handle backup of the config files (with "tar.gz" and "zip" support)
  • Better clear Fifo buffers
  • server support for IPBlock
  • let MLDonkey create its data in $HOME/.mldonkey, but use relative path if downloads.ini is present
  • Kick uploaders which send no data for more than 1 minute
  • Access to disk data (free space, max file name length)
  • support guarding.p2p in zip/gz/bz2 format
  • New option: create_dir_mask, new directories in incoming_directories are created with these rights.
  • More infos for mem_stats
  • Telnet: Show BT hash in "vd num"
  • Clean core startup messages and log output

  • Fix disconnect state with verbosity = "hid"
  • Control identified versions
  • Files copied to incoming dir for sharing do not appear in upstats after hashing
  • Re-enable source exchange with eMule clients
  • Avoid saving sources every save_options_delay
  • new command "reset_stats"
  • don't ask clients for non-downloading files
  • "server met" command now responds with a clearer answer
