If protocol ofuscation must wait some time, at least put a collumn in servers list describing if the server is running ofuscation.

Thanks.

Try by yourself.

The servers that i've seen using obfuscation are the Donkeyserver's #1, #2, etc...

but anyway, you still can connect to them, the only problem is that you cannot search. IF you wanna search, you can change the server for a moment...

I hope obfuscation will be implemented soon.... Because all the eMule 0.47c clients are forced to enable obfuscation, and we cannot connect to them, and we get less download rate than the official emule client.. :(

Enabling obfuscation on 0.47c does NOT reject non-obfuscated clients unless you specifically tell it to do so.

I know.

but when I went to my windows machine to use emule 0.47c to search, I couldn't search unless I enabled the option to only connect to obfuscated clients.... so I enabled it.

if you wanna try...

The begging to wonder but it's possible that most of the users only accept obfuscated clients on these servers.
The Sources on them for me dropped very sigificaly

It is very well possible that users try to enable "only obfuscated(not recommended)".  Since obfuscation sometimes fails on Donkey server 1& 2 (because they are overloaded i guess) some users will try some other settings.

In the meantime you can use eMule 0.47c with wine. It's not the best solution, but it works under Linux.

I think I will have to use wine
« Reply #38 on: November 18, 2006, 09:57:12 PM »
my server/firewall/p2p machine, which is 24/7 online,  has no X system so I cant use wine on it. also other times I have used wine with networking programs didnt work really well, but I think I will have to use wine on my desktop machine while I wait for any obfuscation implementation for linux.

thx for your help.

you can use Xvnc to rune wine without X.
But the best solution is really the new version of amule that kry has been promissing.  :]

Protocol Obfuscation
« Reply #40 on: November 23, 2006, 07:21:13 PM »
In France (i suppose elsewhere also...), you have 2 cases with DSL : ungrouped or not ungrouped.

For ungrouped, provider make generally no filtering on P2P, so no need obfuscation.

The problem is for those who are not ungrouped, the majority !
Majority of providers make P2P filtering with switch layer 3 as Cisco, but not only for applications like aMule but for all P2P traffic, like Skype and other internet game, it's a big problem.

The french historic provider (no publicity...) makes no filtering, ungrouped or not ungrouped, so it can be a solution for those who prefer change their ISP and keep their applications.

So, obfuscation should become a standard for all P2P application if ISP continue to fliter P2P packets.

I have made as others, i have installed eMule 0.47c on WinXP, waiting for an aMule with obfuscation, but for when ?

Thanks in advance for your work.

Run eMule under VMware Player!

There are serious stability problems with eMule under Wine.  It destroyed the majority of my met files on the first run.

There's a thread over at the eMule forums tracking the usage of eMule under Wine.  The consensus is that eMule + Wine is not anywhere near stable.

I have had excellent results running eMule with VMware.   VMWare player is free and the performance is great.   I'm running Windows 2000 (no service packs) on the virtual machine.

Here's roughly what to do:

1 Install VMware player.  Download from http://www.vmware.com/download/player/    Ubuntu users can: apt-get install vmware-player

2 Make a virtual machine.  Go here:  http://www.easyvmx.com  You want bridged networking and 96M or 128M of RAM.

3 Install a windows OS on the VM.

4 Share your aMule temp directory using Samba.

5 Install eMule and configure it.  Point eMule to your aMule temp directory over the network.

6 Don't forget to enable obfuscation!

This setup is extremely stable. It's also surprisingly light on CPU usage so long as you use Windows 2000 instead of XP and avoid installing service packs.  The only downside is the memory usage.

It's much better than aMule under Wine.  It sucks to have your downloads corrupted.

OK, this didn't happen to me, but your solution seems to work just fine. Thanks for the information.

I should have verified my information before I posted.  Someone has fixed the major bug that has plagued eMule under Wine.  According to the eMule Forum's Wine thread it has been fixed in Wine 9.25!

It is entirely possible that eMule runs well under the latest version of Wine.

I'd love to hear if anyone here is able to run eMule under Wine 9.25 in a stable way (for 2-3 weeks at a time without crash.)  I am still gunshy from my last eMule + Wine experience to try it so early.

Even if it runs OK, that would be only a temporary solution for me, since we have an ed2k client - aMule. It just needs to be fixed.
