Redirection of aMule interface to another machine
« on: January 14, 2008, 11:49:41 AM »

Here is what i want to ask if is any way to do:
I have amule installed in a machine without any screen or keyboard, which i access by ssh.
Until now i am using amule daemon, and the web interface from another machine to control it.
I really appreciate the hard work taht the amule team is performing, but i still see the web interface too limitated for a proper use of the program itself, and i think i am not the only one that is in the same situation and has to depend on the web interface to use amule.
My question is if there is any way to, somehow, execute amule itself, not amule-daemon, in that machine without screen, and redirect the gui output to another machine.
What i want is to ask  is there is any better solution to control more deeply the program remotely, and what do i need to do so.

Thanks for the help! :)

PS.: The non-screen machine is an Ubuntu server 7.10

Hi,

I use aMuleGUI..it's easy i will explain...

open up amule.config file (obviously close aMuled beforehand)

add:
AcceptExternalConnections=1
ECPassword= <----------you need to set this by doing the following:
in a terminal do this:
echo -n yourpasswordhere | md5sum | cut -d ' ' -f 1
copy n past this to your ECPassword=Blahblah....
should look like this:
AcceptExternalConnections=1
ECAddress=
ECPort=4712
ECPassword=ed7666ef6h39866e66b511hg0at40
and your set to go...
typeamuled to get it runnin...then..
type amulegui

Oh crap...please read[aMule on Debian - HOWTO] From CVS to remote control  http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=13031.0

And where can i find a compiled amulegui for windows?
If i cannot find it already compiled.... how can i compile it? I know how to do it for linux, but i ignore how to do so on win....

I compiled todays cvs and im viewing it from my job with a windows version of the amule-gui.
Works pretty nice and looks better than the web interface.....
Although, it has some strange crashes that i dont know if are caused either by the daemon, or by the windows compiled client.
In example, when i attempt to expand the list of ppers it does not show anything... and in the preferences, in the directories preferences actually, i dont see the server's folder taht i determined in the machine running the daemon, it shows a route in C:/Documents and Settings..... , appart from that, and that sometimes it just crashes suddenly, i think is a really nice solution to the problem i exposed before.
I willl try it from my *nix systems at home, and see how it works, and i will try to report any feedback i get! ;)

Thank you a lot
