using limewire on intranet
 

I try to use limewire 2.9.11 on an intranet
without any internet connection ( i want to create an internal gnutella network ) .
I launch 2 limewire on 2 hosts, but they can not
connect each other when i add the IP address
to the connection list.
The network is working, i can ping , i can even
connect to port 6346 ( telnet host 6346) but
the connection fail.
I have tried with or without the ultrapeer option
with same result.
Is there anything special to do ?

PS: i have no problem to use the same limewire
version on internet !

regards

I believe you would have to force ULTRAPEER mode on one of your Limewire hosts.

try putting these options in your limewire.props file on one of your Limewire hosts:


EVER_ACCEPTED_INCOMING=true
FORCE_SUPERNODE_MODE=true
EVER_SUPERNODE_CAPABLE=true

also make sure that you don't have the "Disable ultrapeer mode" option enabled or just place this option in your limewire.props file as well:

DISABLE_SUPERNODE_MODE=false

I works !

thank you for your help
