Title: getting LowID on 2.0.0rc7 while 1.2.8 works fine
Post by: cvasil on October 21, 2004, 03:28:52 AM

any idea what could be wrong?

Slack 9.1,  wx 2.4.2

Firewall:
...
  AMULETCP=4662
  AMULEUDP=4672
  AMULEUDP2=`expr $AMULETCP + 3`
  iptables -A INPUT -i $INET -p tcp -d $IPADDR --dport $AMULETCP -j ACCEPT
  iptables -A INPUT -i $INET -p udp -d $IPADDR --dport $AMULEUDP -j ACCEPT
  iptables -A INPUT -i $INET -p udp -d $IPADDR --dport $AMULEUDP2 -j ACCEPT
....

cvasil,

I don't have -i and -d switches in my iptables command, I don't think that they are necessary unless you have some complicated ip address scheeme in your machine.

Anyway, if 1.2.8 works, there should be no reason for rc7 not to work, so there must be nothing wrong with your firewall configuration.

The relevant port when it comes to lowid/highid is aMule TCP port. Once aMule is running, do:
$ netstat -nlt
$ lsof | grep amule | grep IPv4

And paste the result of these commands here, ok? Also check if you have IPFilter active on rc7.

Cheers!

-i and -d are because there are two interface cards in my box. I removed them, so here is what I have now:
# iptables -L | egrep '4662|4665|4672'
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere           tcp dpt:4662
ACCEPT     udp  --  anywhere             anywhere           udp dpt:4665
ACCEPT     udp  --  anywhere             anywhere           udp dpt:4672

The problem is still in place.

I disabled IPFilter (it was active by default), but the problem remains.
$ grep -i ipfilter ~/.eMule
IPFilterAutoLoad=1
IPFilterURL=
IpFilterOn=0

Strange thing, but despite the LowID I can see a few guys loading data from me.

sorry i can't help you with iptables. never used them, but:
"Strange thing, but despite the LowID I can see a few guys loading data from me."
usign lowid doesn't stop you from uploading to other clients. it just stops you uploading to other _LowID_ users ;)
