MLDonkey for OpenSolaris @ Multimedia Repository

MLDonkey LogoI've added MLDonkey 3.0.0 to my repository at http://ips.homeunix.com:10906. The only network I have compiled into this MLDonkey package is the eDonkey/Overnet network. Click on the picture below to get an idea of how MLDonkey works.

One of the things I love most about MLDonkey is the fact that you can have the CORE running on a different computer to the GUI. I have included the GTK2 GUI in the package however there are a lot of others, including PHP, available from the MLDonkey website.

You can add my repository to your installation and install MLDonkey by follow the steps below.

  1. "pkg set-authority -O http://ips.homeunix.com:10906 ips.homeunix.com" to add repository.
  2. "pkg refresh --full" to update catalog.
  3. "pkg install MBLmldonkey" to install MLDonkey.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Have fun.

Hello,

I finally found why my mldonkey doesn't work with eDonkey server : there is a bug in one source file of mldonkey 3.0.0. Just apply that patch, and it will work fine :

Yes, good find. I had to implement that fix as well. I do have a compiled version of MLDonkey with BT and eDonkey/Overnet but it was compiled on Solaris 10 and is a SVR4 package.

I'll be making my Solaris 10 SVR4 packages available here soon as well.

Cheers

Hi,

First of all, thank you for this pakage !

I have a resquest : can you make a version with eDonkey, Overnet, Bittorent and FileTP network ?

I tried to make it myself, but it doesn't work : Bittorent and FileTP are OK, but I am unable to connect eDonkey server...

Your version work perfectly with eDonkey server, but I need also Bittorent.

Thank you !
