Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines.

 P2P-Philanthropy Peer-to-peer technology gets a lot of bad press but not much attention is paid to the efforts of those attempting to highlight the non-infringing uses of P2P. Since 2002 one company has embraced P2P technology as a delivery platform for content distribution. This month we decided to kick our peer to peer philanthropy into high gear by investing some capital into some high speed nodes. of our first objective was to find a high-speed dedicated hosting provider. On May 5, 2004 we accomplish this goal by selecting server pronto as our dedicated server host. They offer starter servers for $29.95 per month. LeeWare Development purchased two servers to increase our node count to 9. It took a few days to overcome some management challenges but basically the integration of these two nodes came off without a hitch. Provisioning for these new servers basically required the following steps: #1 personalizing the server by changing its default configuration. #2 uploading a file sharing package(s) i.e. we use giFT because our servers don't come with GUI interface. #3 configure, compile, and configure the giFT components #4 Finally selecting a front-end application to attach to the remote servers for management purposes. Server specifications: Processor: AMD Athon 2000+ Memory: 256MB SDRAM HardDisk: 40GB OS: Red Hat Fedora Connection: 100Mbps Cost Analysis: 2 servers @ $149 each = $298 + 1 month of service per server @ $29.95 each =$ 59.90 Total startup costs: $357.90 the return on investment for this implementation is five months. LeeWare Development has a huge content library our first major project is to upload the content to the servers. We broke this implementation into stages: stage 1: upload apps library 2.5 GB of content (79 files) status = done stage 2: upload wmv library 5.98 GB of content (152 files) status = done stage 3: upload avi library < 1 GB 14.6 GB of content (176 files) status = done stage 4: upload avi library >= 1GB 31.9GB of content (24 files) status = pending Current server status: Currently there are no nodes online as we are in the process of porting content to those servers. however, we plan to go live with the service so the content is available just before LimeWire releases version 4.0 of LimeWire. Community Support: We hope that you'll support us by downloading and sharing the content you find useful. Preliminary testing results: we turned up one of the nodes on the Gnutella network over the weekend and we saw the following which should be very exciting to the file sharing community. We saw uploads in the 2-6Mbps throughput range. We distributed about 1,700 files in about a few hours. This should allow anyone with a broadband connection to experience P2P in the way it was intended. I hope that you enjoy the new services and we will keep you posted on our progress.

 Hi Lee--thanks for the magnets. I'm not sure of the problem (looks like you formatted for shareaza urn bitprints rather than LW magnets, but your magnets aren't working here). They get as far as bringing LW's search pane to the foreground, but then nothing more happens. Here's a sample comparison (I addeded spaces to break up the lines): magnet:%3Fxt=urn:bitprint:GTZ5R3W55GPBXCTGDUBLE3W5 XCKY3MMA.YMCD LVROXQUB3QUUWV6CX67TDRWYW6MIXOBVYAQ& dn=CBT%20-%20Using%20ipconfig%20on%20Windows%202000.wmv magnet:?xt=urn:sha1:GB2WZIGYNF5RVDFQR73HR3KBJYV6ES UZ&dn= TheQuickFixKills_Pick_Your_Poison.mp3&xs= http://64.61.25.138:6346/uri-res/N2R? urn:sha1:GB2WZIGYNF5RVDFQR73HR3KBJYV6ESUZ I double-checked by downloading a few magnets from magnetmix.com (worked fast and fine), and then searched for CBT .wmv files. However, I couldn't figure out which IP belonged to the new server. |

| Actually, I took a shortcut when creating those magnet links. I found an old dump of the magnet links I created when using shareaza. I've tried to create links with LimeWire but there doesn't appear to be a way to do them in bulk i.e. all file in the library at once. It appears that you have to do each link one at a time which can be painful if you have over 400 files. like I do. If you know of a way of doing this I will replace the magnets I've posted with ones that point towards my high-speed hosts. --Right now, I don't have any nodes up on the gnutella network. please see the news for an explaination. http://www.leeware.com/news.html Also I need help starting LimeWire without the GUI. Currently I'm using giFT but I don't think that it connects me to an active horizon on the Gnutella network. |

| I see. Others would know how to do bulk magnets (only needed one to be able to locate and browse the host). Anyways, looks like most of your content is geared for Windows, and as a Mac user, I avoid wmv files. Best wishes anyway--hope you can get your faceless gnutella. Cheers |

| To create links in bulk you ca use Phex. Just access it at its port (point your webbrowser to it). It replies with a page with old "gnutella:"-links. I wrote some info on how to do it in the Phex-Forum: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=22892
