per user download
« on: November 14, 2006, 02:18:06 PM »

Hi all staff and amule's users,
maybe this feature is not required by many people, but i still try... :-)

the target:
in my home enviroment, it will be great to divide download per user.
(i believe also in many office it would be an advantage, but i focus on my needs)

the scenario:
i got an old-server with amuled that runs 24x7 without X; if i want to add a file i use amulegui and all is work (quite) well.

the proposal:
For example, if i want to download a terrorist-cookbook (ehi, it's just an example!) the download is only visible to me (if i don't flag it "public").
If my sister want to became a terrorist and download the same file, automatically share it between two users.

Okay. that's all. If you don't undestand is because my english lack.

Please, Kry, try to don't kill me. I appreciate it. Really :-)

Hi m47730!

I'm not a developer and don't know for sure, but I think something like this is planned in the future (the EC protocol already has the 'user' option), but I doubt it will be implemented soon.

I suppose you are boring talking multiuser support, sorry. Let me show as I see, multiuser for me its:
1) Password you supply in amulegui lets you change only your category (category will be similar to user for logging purposes) and you can't change files in anothers, but you can see them obviously (this is better for avoid several people trying same file or same file some different -other name or so-) This feature is independent of users in operating system or files permissions
2) There is a admin cat which can manage all files independent of categories and can manage preferences of amuled (globar preferences)
3) I'm interested in set maximum number (hard set) of files downloading/waiting and maximum for each user (soft set)
example: 2 users (A and B), 6 hard max queue and 3 soft max for user
user A with her queue: 2 files
user B with her queue: 5files (4 in queue and another stopped for hard limit -he try to start download by he can't :) -)
---> now user A add another file to queue putting her link into square and clicking commit :) (he not reach her limit) and user B got 3 files in queue (amule stop file with low downloaded percent)
funny, no?
For that or something similar it will be interesting:
startnextfilesamecat option in amule.conf working :p (not working in 20071212-cvs as I know)
You said EC protocol allow users, so don't think in ed2k network problems (which know nothing about multiuser in that scenario!) :)

Thanks for replies, I know we spend a lot of time thinking in that but currently only kind users can share a daemon and I don't know any :(
Feel free for explain me you point of view! Have Fun with amuled+amulegui!

OK, correction:
Short (why rude?) answer: no
Long answer: search the forum for previous discussion
Misleading answer: somewhere in the distant future some developer may come to idea to implement such system.
