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

thx for uber fast answer...
on my way !

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 !
-
you need to lauch amuled. that's the daemon
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:
./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
