well to start from teh back of your post

amuleGUI would not help here aswell....

ed2k tool creates a file in the .aMule dir (on the windows mashine) and a aMule running here would catch that file, and add it to the dl list --> so it wont help you aswell

I had 2 tools which could actually "pick" up the ed2k protocoll from any browser on windows, and compunicate with the linux-daemon, one send teh link to amuleweb itself
and one had a different "server" on the linux box who pasted teh link in the ed2k-file in the homedir, so amuled would pick it up aswelll

problem is, due to server swicht both threads with those tools are lost :-/

ahh the one who uses google finds what he needs ;)

one programm is called send2emule, I used it before with amuleweb and it works without problems...

another one whcih I havent tryed yet is CBB eMule Click Transfer

just google for those 2 and one will work

they both work teh same way, they require a working amuleweb. they will ask for your amuleweb password, and port and then send those ed2k links directly to teh amuleweb, this will add it to amule(d)

hope taht helps

edit: hmpf ok its really a while ago since I last used it..and it worked with our "old" amuleweb, but since we use amuleweb-php its not working anymore, since it cant login -> stupid cookies, I will talk to lfroen if he can somehow "enable that feature again"

Thanx guys, effort appreciated 8)

Another pragmatic idea that does involve manual interaction though is
- using something like a link extractor in firefox

- paste the link(s) into a text-file located somewhere on the linux box mounted via smb

- as a cronjob run dos2unix on the file, chmod / chown it and move it to the correct place (~/.aMule folder of the user running amuled)

And while a direct transfer especially via amuleweb would be a much better and more elegant solution one question remains in order to try this crude version: what is the filename and the format (plain text, lf?) amuled expects?

Oh, and just wondering: how often does amuled check whether the file is there? Sounds like a relatively resource intensive function, IMHO one wouldn't run a stat every second or so.

Thanks, I'll try and contact fsaction later since the dl link is broken.

This requires a binary server to run on the linux box? Hope it won't be smashed to pieces at runtime by my grsecurity kernel ;(

short status report due to lack of time:

fsaction answered very quickly and provided me with a new version of his tool, big THANK YOU for that!  :))

Unfortunately due to a various number of reasons I simply didn't have the time to try anything out yet but I'm quite confident that things will work out in the end. The upcoming holidays this weekend will hopefully give me the time to actually get back to it.

Will keep You updated...

Update:

Unfortunately things happened as I feared: fsaction's tool would be killed off by my grsecurity-kernel. But before I had the time to work on that problem with chpax this thread came up and solved it all  :))

Maybe make that sticky or put it in the FAQ?

Thanks for all the help!  8)
