Hi

I am at a school which has a very strict firewall.

The only ports which are open are ports 21 and 110. I can also access services on port 80 via a proxy running on port 8080. How can I get this to work with Morpheus (My choice of a Gnutella client)?

I can also, but prefer not to, access all ports by using SSH-Tunneling through my home router which is running SSH on port 21. But I think that can confuse Gnutella and it will try to establishe a connection to my router, not to the other end of the tunnel. But that limits the download speed but if that is the only way then I would like to use it.

Is there any way to get this to work? All ideas are welcome.

Regards,
Birkir

Has anyone tried HTTPort? It can be found at http://www.httport.com/.

I got WinMX to work because it has SOCKS4 support, which HTTPort allows. Unfortunately, Kazaa will not work because it can only use SOCKS5. And I can't get most of the Gnutella clients to work because they do not have proxy support. HTTPort does allow you to map local ports to the actual ports outside and tunneling the requests through your firewall/proxy.

Try it and post results here please! Thanks.

First, why don't you people read around here a bit before posting? Why do you think you are the only one with this problem?

Get Gnucleus, it will let you connect to a internal LAN so you can share at high speed on your internal campus LAN. Get on IRC and check for others sharing on your network.

Do you mean www.htthost.com ?
I can’t get the other address to work.

What kind of proxy? Not many gnutella client support socks 4 and 5 clients!

Try to change the port in your client (under preferences).
