Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) 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. |

 Alternative Connection Ports - Information A Guide To Alternative Port Selection A comprehensive listing by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority can be found here. This is the official list. IANA is the organization that actually assigns these numbers, so this is really the place to look. But the short story is, ports 49152 to 65535 are the ones to shoot for. They're known as Dynamic or Private Ports, and are there to use freely without stepping on any ports being used by your computer for other things. Following is a list of the ports your machine might use at some time or another: Ports below 1024 are called the "Well-Known Ports", used by various system processes. You can use any port within this range that are not in use, but unless you really know your computer, you can't be sure which ones are being used by your machine at any given time. 20 FTP data (File Transfer Protocol) 21 FTP (File Transfer Protocol) 22 SSH (Secure Shell) 23 Telnet 25 SMTP (Send Mail Transfer Protocol) 43 whois 53 DNS (Domain Name Service) 68 DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) 79 Finger 80 HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) 110 POP3 (Post Office Protocol, version 3) 115 SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) 119 NNTP (Network New Transfer Protocol) 123 NTP (Network Time Protocol) 137 NetBIOS-ns 138 NetBIOS-dgm 139 NetBIOS 143 IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) 161 SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) 194 IRC (Internet Relay Chat) 220 IMAP3 (Internet Message Access Protocol 3) 389 LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) 443 SSL (Secure Socket Layer) 445 SMB (NetBIOS over TCP) 666 Doom 993 SIMAP (Secure Internet Message Access Protocol) 995 SPOP (Secure Post Office Protocol) Ports between 1024 and 29151 are known as the Registered Ports. Basically, programs are supposed to register their use of these ports and thereby try to be careful and avoid stomping on each other. Here are some common ports and their programs. Same thing applies concerning ports within this range that aren't on this list -- you never know for sure which ones are being used. (Edit by LOTR: Ports not to use: 7001 or 27016. These are used by hostile BOTs and are auto-blocked by both WireShare and Skulls GWebCache services. Do not use any port in the 270xx range.) 1243 SubSeven (Trojan - security risk!) 1352 Lotus Notes 1433 Microsoft SQL Server 1494 Citrix ICA Protocol 1521 Oracle SQL 1604 Citrix ICA / Microsoft Terminal Server 2049 NFS (Network File System) 3306 mySQL 4000 ICQ 5010 Yahoo! Messenger 5190 AOL Instant Messenger 5632 PCAnywhere 5800 VNC 5900 VNC 6000 X Windowing System 6699 Napster 6776 SubSeven (Trojan - security risk!) 7070 RealServer / QuickTime 7778 Unreal 8080 HTTP 26000 Quake 27010 Half-Life 27960 Quake III 31337 BackOrifice (Trojan - security risk!) We all owe a large and extra warm thank you to Threadmaster, moderator extraordinaire of the BearShare Forums, for helping to help here.
