Title: amule client - remote admin ?
Post by: blah on February 13, 2005, 07:20:17 PM
Hi there !

can amule run as a daemon ? (ie. login, run amule client, logout, then select files to download from another comp).

the goal is to let it run on comp without X and without any user logged in...

Thks...

yes sure it is possible ;)
reading the forum a little bit would have helped a lot ;) search helps :P

you should download

- wxBase 2.5.3 from wxWidgets
- current amule-cvs from http://amule.hirnriss.net

install both ;) and there you go

you need --enable-amule-deamon --disable-monolithic --enable-webserver --enable-amulecmd
as amule configure flags.

you can use the webserver to add links to a running amule, or the command line ed2k tool

will bother you a bit more before congratulations :D

okie, wxBase compiled w/o pbms, aMules-cvs compiled w/o problems but now
I've only a amulecmd and a amuleweb... both seems to look for a client and refuse
to start as standalone daemon:

---
amuleweb -p nnnn -apw xxxxxxxx -gpw xxxxxxxx
Enter password for mule connection (return if no pass defined):

Creating client...
Now, doing connection....
Using host 'localhost' port:6688
Trying to connect (timeout = 10 sec)...
Connection Failed. Unable to connect to the specified host
---
amulecmd -p nnnn -pw xxxxxxxx

Creating client...
Now, doing connection....
Using host 'localhost' port:6666
Trying to connect (timeout = 10 sec)...
Connection Failed. Unable to connect to the specified host
---

hmmm does user launching amule need special rights ?
I admit that I've just fly by the docs directory... but I am a bit lazy atm (and as having a running amule is not a priority atm, if someone has a straight answer, I would prefer ;) )

Thanks ppl !

Then you can connect to it from amulcmd or amuleweb

hey hey amigo stefanero, there was smth wrong in your flag...
I didn't had any amuled...

so if any other lazy gal/guy falls here for the same problem:

Code: [Select]
./configure --enable-amulecmd --enable-amule-daemon --enable-webserver --disable-monolithic

(I don't have a fsck clue of what monolithic do... so if any charitable ppl could explain, it'd be welcome)

darn, since gentoo introduced the USE flag, I don't have the habit anymore ./configure myself :D

Anyway thanks guyz !!

Kry: DOTT and FC... nice nice, great choices :D
