Title: How do you run aMule?
Post by: klonka on January 07, 2005, 10:41:21 AM
hi i currently use mldonkey and run it just on a different user, but mldonkey is ocaml not c++... and i know that c++ is bufferoverflow friendly ;) ... so what is the best way to "secure" aMule. does someone run aMule in a jail?... is there a readme with needed libs? (don't find something like that @ wiki)..

so whats your fav way to run aMule? ;)

bye

If you mean chroot "jail" - setting this up can be complicated thing, depending on your environment. aMule depend on a lot of libs (depends on how did you compiled it), use ld to find out which exactly. You may consider to run only daemon (amuled) in such environment, since it doesn't need any X related libs

hey

for sending amuleweb to teh background use

-q for quite, and -f for reading pass from .eMule file

so start it with
amuleweb -q -f &

and amuled in background simple add a & at the end aswell...
