Relatively easy:
- Make sure you have a connection to a well-known ed2k server such as DonkeyServer 2.
- Search a bit for a well known file such as the aMule-2.1.3 source package, and download it.
- Wait for some sources indicated by the file.
- Go to the Kad page and click on "bootstrap from known clients".
- Make sure you have Kad selected in the preferences menu, this for future restarts.

This should start up Kad and connect you to peers.

Hmm, then I'm out. Does it really do nothing? Does the log file state anything, like "Connecting to Kad", "Firewalled" or any other message with Kad in it?

For me they do.

Have you tried to:
  • shut down aMule
  • download the nodes.dat to ~/.aMule/nodes.dat
  • start aMule again
?

In the kad tab it says that it's running and not connected... the bootstrap does nothing and using the link http://download.overnet2000.de/nodes.dat for updating nodes it seems that get around 120 nodes but in a minute It says 0 nodes. How can I get a log to show you what's happening?

Well you get no UDP replies at all. Hence why either is closed, or filtered.
