difference between 6346 and 6347? I found that gnutella use following registered port at IANA. gnutella-svc 6346/tcp gnutella-svc gnutella-svc 6346/udp gnutella-svc gnutella-rtr 6347/tcp gnutella-rtr gnutella-rtr 6347/udp gnutella-rtr what is difference between gnutella-svc and gnutella-rtr? |

The settings in Mactella ask for 4 ports: Network, Upload, Push Request, and Client. The defaults are 6346, 6345, 6344, and 6300 respectively. LimeWire also asks for 2 different ports: the Listening Port, default 6355, and the Force Local IP, default 6346. So how many ports should I put in the router's NAT table for both servents to work properly? (not at the same time, of course) TIA |

Remember to set in the the Gnutella client the public IP of the router, not the private LAN address that the computer running the Gnutella has. |

Basically that's true, if the client does follow the Gnutella protocoll and uses only one port (e.g. TCP port 6346). But I don't think that question is easy to answer, as long as we do not know what the purpose of those other ports is. I think the Unregistered misunderstood at least the meaning of the force_IP setting (which is no port number, but an IP-address used for sharing behind NAT routers/firewalls), actually Mactella describes various ports in the documentation. I asked the developers by email/PM and in their forum (Limewire, Mactella), got no answer. |
