GnucDNA clients

[littlebits]

I'm wondering if LimeWire is blocking connections to GnucDNA clients. When using Gnucleus, I only connect to (BearShare, Shareaza, Morpheus, XoloX, Trusty Files, iMesh, and other Gnucleus and GnucDNA clients) Ultra-Peers. I never connect to LimeWire's Ultra-Peers. However I always get a good connection but no LimeWire.


ThankYou :blah

LimeWire allows only 2 leaf slots per ultrapeer to be occupied by Shareaza or GnucDNA clients.

Does this affect downloads in any way, like speed or preformance?


ThankYou :bling

it may affect your gnutella searches.

aber wenn ich mit limewire suche,habe ich mehr ergebnisse,oder nicht?

This is complely untrue. Ive gotten many connections to LW ultrapeers using Gnucleus and/or DIYP2P. The only one that ive ever seen this to be true with is shareaza, but it is shareaza itself not limewire. perhaps the person running limewire can only connect to 2 gnucdna nodes, but that does not mean that on my end, i cannot connect to more than 2 limewire node. Use yer heads kids!

Littlebits, gnutella is a protocol that all the clients that you mentioned use to connect. The client itself is irrelevant, it is the protocol that matters. Any gnutella client can make a connection with another gnutella client. Port forwarding is what matters.

Your searches come from hash tables that any enabled client can use. Gnucleus IMHO blows away LW in interface, speed, and ease of use, not to mention CPU and mem threads.

Who's a little fanboy who is about to get banned. Yes you are, that's right.

Uh huh, that sounds about right to me.

[areyounuts?]

Actually, its true though, just a thought. Nevermind.

I was just wanting to know the truth about this because I read in another forum that said the new LimeWire limited connections to the GnucDNA clients. When I use LimeWire, I only connect to LimeWire's Ultra-Peers. When I use Shareaza and BearShareLite, I can connect to LimeWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, giFT, other Shareaza and many other Ultra-Peers. When I use Gnucleus, I was able to connect to all of the clients Ultra-Peers except LimeWires. I haven't checked other Gnutella clients and many don't even let you know which Ultra-Peer client that you are connected to. I gues this will remain to be unknown.

ThankYou :gj

LimeWire tries to main connections to other clients on ultrapeer-level. LimeWire leafs will only connect to LimeWire ultrapeers but LimeWire ultrapeers will try to main connections to BearShare ultrapeers and gtk-gnutella ultrapeers too.
