Hello,
recently I installed amule-daemon on linux to download my files in background and stuck into small problem which affects also desktop aMule.
Why can't I change additional UDP port for server requests? It is stuck to +3 from TCP port, I'd like to set it manually myself.
The problem with auto setting is that it conflicts with how I usually open ports on my router:
- I select a port range (ex. 8000-8100) and dst-nat tcp and udp protocols to specific internal PC
- each program on PC gets it's own port number, both tcp and udp - torrents are 8005 tcp/udp, ed2k gets 8002 tcp/udp, etc. It's easy to remember and pretty static over all my home PCs.
Now, the problem with amule autoassigning UDP port is that 8002+3 = 8005 which udp port is already claimed by qbittorrent. So amule crashes, without any specific error about port binding. That assignment isn't what I want, I'd like to either disable this or be able to set it myself.
I think this port is specific to amule only, since I use eMule on windows PC and it has similar ports open - 7002 for eMule, 7005 for torrents, and eMule does not complain about it.
