Title: activate daemon after binaries install
Post by: ggd on November 09, 2005, 07:26:31 PM

is-it possible to activate amule deamon after installing from the binaries?
might it have something to do with remote control?

thanks for your help

No.  The Mac binary we supply has aMule (the complete GUI program) and amuleweb, but not amuled (the daemon).  You have to compile amuled from the source code for yourself.

The instructions are basically very similar to the instructions for compiling aMule.app (http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo_compile_on_Mac), with a few minor changes.  When configuring aMule, you add "--disable-monolithic --enable-amule-daemon" to the configure command.  After the make step, you don't need the strip or mv steps.  Instead you have src/amuled, which is the daemon program, and you can run it from where it is or copy it wherever you want.
