Hi!

Does aMule v2.1.3 lets you connect to more than one servers in Linux/Debian? Or is only one server allowed to be connected?

Thank you in advance.

The emule protocol only allows a client to connect only to one server at a time.

However, requests for sources are sent to all the servers in the list periodically.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Interesting. How does mldonkey connect to four servers like this?

Those are all eDonkey servers.

MLDonkey breaks the eMule protocol.

That adds a lot of unnecessary stress on the servers and its not a very welcomed feature for that.

Interesting. Oh well. Is it better to connect to a server with a lot of files and users than the less populated ones?
