Best P2P

Recommended Posts

I think I must have tried most of the P2P clients for Mandrake;

MLDonkey, GTK-Gnutella, Limewire, Napshare, X-Mule, Emule and GiFT

Right off the bat I don't like any of them but which one should I persuavere with?

Your opinions please.

 

NB: I would like to use both Gnutella and Gnutella 2 protocols.

I downloaded BitTorrent 3.9.1, but I can't find the application to open up?? I assume that BitTorrent is best as I looked around...

 

slocated BitTorrent, and got /usr/share/pixmaps/BitTorrent But I don't see any application? I tried to click to open up??

 

I didn't know LimeWire do have for Linux?? :unsure:

Install bittornado (open a console, log in as root and type: urpmi bittornado). Download a torrent, rightclik the torrent and choose 'opwn with'. In the command bar type: btdownloadgui.py. Next time you double click a torrent bittornado will open up.

 

Tip for sppedy downloads: limit your upload (choose 54k/isdn) and if you have a router forward ports 6551-6889.

 

Good luck.

Hey, still not success... I decide to remove BitTorrent 3.9.1 then re do with install from Easy Urpmi, Bittorrent 3.4.2....

 

Guess nothing work.... :wall::wall:

 

Wait a minute, I found:

usr/share/man/man1/bittorrent-downloader.1.bz2

/usr/share/man/man1/bittorrent-multi-downloader.1.bz2

/usr/share/doc/bittorrent-3.4.2

/usr/share/doc/bittorrent-3.4.2/LICENSE.txt

/usr/share/doc/bittorrent-3.4.2/README.txt

/usr/share/doc/bittorrent-3.4.2/credits.txt

/usr/share/mimelnk/application/x-bittorrent.desktop

/usr/share/mime/application/x-bittorrent.xml

 

I noticed bittorent-downloader.1.bz2, do I need to type in root for extract it?? If so, what should I type?? tar xvf??

I clicked one of your link to get Bittorando, but my screen showed:

 

Some package requested cannot be installed:

BitTornado-0.3.8-2mdk.noarch (due to unsatisfied python-base[>= 2.4])

do you agree ?

 

Huh? If too complication, just disregarding... I can try something else... Thanks and hate to waste on this issue again and again...

 

Thanks again!

I clicked the link this: http://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distr...2mdk.noarch.rpm

 

after I click install it.... it appeared:

Some package requested cannot be installed:

BitTornado-0.3.8-2mdk.noarch (due to unsatisfied python-base[>= 2.4])

do you agree ?

 

Seems that I need to add some package before Bittorando??

Try,

# urpmi limewire

and see if that doesn't cut the cheese for you. Sometimes the solution is an alternative ;)
