Cannot connect to kad with ubuntu 9.10
« on: January 03, 2010, 11:07:22 PM »

Hello,

I am using amule version 2.2.6 in ubuntu 9.10 and I get Kad: connecting at the bottom right corner. How can I connect to the kad network?

Thank you.

You have to enable ED2K network once to bootstrap Kad, or download a nodes.dat . Once it has connected you can turn ED2K off again.

ED2k was enabled as well as kademlia, and in the kad tab there is this address

http://emule-inside.net/nodes.dat

Any other clues? Do I have to open any port for kad?

Please click on the blue arrow left to "Nodes (0)" above the statistics graph.

I pressed it to download a new nodes.dat, but it failed. I attach the image.

What could be wrong?

Start some download (using ED2K network). When you have some sources click on "Bootstrap from known clients".

Unfortunately the address doesn't exist anymore. (HTTP 410 - Gone) Should bootstrapping as described by Stu Redman fail, please try http://download.tuxfamily.org/technosalad/utils/nodes.dat instead.

Seems like that adddress is not valid anymore. See nodes.dat addresses to find a working URL.

Ah, I see wuischke was faster ;)

It works now. I had a default installation. I think the default installation should be modified or else other people will have the same problem!
