Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. 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. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Question Firewall: Ports

High there.

I cannot upload.

I'm running Qtella behind a firewall.
The Firewall uses a dial-in connection (dynamic ip).

The dynamic-ip-prob should be solved with the "interface: hostname" option from network-setup & my dnsName wich is mapped to the dynIP. (right?)

Now the ports:
I entered port 6346 in the "ports" field (networkSetup). Then I activated port-forwarding of port 6346 to my qtella box on the firewall.

But my qtella never uploads anything. Ther's a lot of stuff shown on the "shared files" tab.

What's wrong? the Firewall forwards tcp & udp.

The right IP must be displayed in the "Force IP"-Field.

Are you also missing incoming connections in the "connection tab"?

Do you get connected with telnet? "telnet your_domain 6346"

It is. (I checked the ip with ifconfig on the firewall).
btw: "Interface" always switches back to "File" when I restart qtella.

> Are you also missing incoming
> connections in the "connection tab"?

there are only "Outgoing" connects displayed. I set "Outgoing connects" & Incoming connects to "5".

> Do you get connected with telnet?
> "telnet your_domain 6346"

a telnet from within my subnet says:
---- schnipp ----
gunter@aule:~ > telnet manwe 6346
Trying 192.168.0.1...
Connected to manwe.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
---- schnapp ----

Jeah! Got it!

a telnet from outside the FW _now_ does the same

ipchains was to swallow all the unlucky packages!
I changed its rules and now i get incoming connects!

[pre]
---- schnipp ----
pkts bytes target prot opt tosa tosx ifname mark outsize source destination ports
0 0 ACCEPT tcp ------ 0xFF 0x00 ippp0 !192.168.0.0/24 anywhere 1024:65535 -> 6346
---- schnapp ----
[/pre]


Jepp! It works now!

sorry, I should have checked ipchains before...

thank U,

Question

I'm not sure i follow here. If I'm behind a firewall and my ip is 192.168.122.155 I use the manaul option if the config tab? but what about the telnet option you spoke of? On these systems telnet is not allowed to be used. 'Cause as the other person said I'm getting almost no uploads.

I looked and if there are supposed to be incoming connections showing up in the connection tab then I got problems, 'cause I got none.

If some program wants to connect to an other prog via internet. it needs to know the right ip-Adress to reach the mashine. Then it needs the right "port"-number to reach the right program on the mashine.

Your IP 192.168.x.x is not reachable via internet. The IP-adress you are reachable with via internet is the one of your firewall.

the port-number which tells your computer to deliver the ip-packages to the gnutella-software is probably blocked by your firewall. So first you need to allow connections on this port (usually 6346) at your firewall.
The Firewall should in no way run any software like a gnutella-client! what u need to do next is to tell the firewall, to send all ip-packages which want to establish a connection on 6346 to your qtella-computer (192.168.122.155) on your lan.
how u do this depends on what progs u use on ur firewall.

Telnet can connect to any port. i.e. you can "telnet www.gnutellaforums.com 80" to see the answer of this webserver. if u see any answer (other than "not reachable" i.e. :-]) u know that it's possible to reach a prog which listens on this port.

I've had the same problem. However I have forwarded the 6346 port from my firewall machine to my machine (the one that uses qtella). When I telnet to the ip addy (of the firewall machine) I get a connection refused messsage. other than installing qtella on my machine, what modifications do I need to make so it will accept these incoming requests on port 6346? I'm running rh72.....

Well I've made more prgress with my installation. my previous post (directly above this one) I was having connection problems, well I've gotten to the point were Qtella will accept incoming connections, how ever I still get all errors when I try to download. I am able to down load as root however, but I'd rather not run the program as root. Another thing, I was wodering if there is a way around the force IP box. I have to force the IP of my firewall/masq machine but that isn't a good situation for me since the IP on that machine isn't static and changes regularly... Thanks for any help!

Have you checked the permissions of the directories for the completed and incompleted downloads?
