NAME
mlnet - your door to Edonkey, Directconnect, Gnutella, Bittorent, Overnet, OpenNap
networks
SYNOPSIS
mlnet [options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the mlnet command.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
With mlnet you will be able to connect to different peer-to-peer network :
• Edonkey
• DirectConnect
• Overnet
• OpenNap
• Bittorent
• Gnutella
Peer to peer network is based on sharing file. Moreover, many servers on this different
network have connection scripting. If you want to be welcome everywhere, it is highly
recommended to share some files. When sharing take two consideration : number of file and
total size of this file. The limit is typically : sharing more than 1 Gb and less than
1000 files.
MLDonkey is always in developpement. The download rate is not guaranteed. Through version
it appears that queueing, uploading, downloading could be buggy. Normally, none of this
bug really restrict you download / upload rate. If you see a very low rate, try to review
all your settings and sharing before contacting the MLDonkey user mailing-list
<mldonkey-users@nongnu.org>.
ENVIRONNEMENT
COLUMNS,LINES sets width and height for the terminal. This is the terminal as you see it
when connecting to the telnet port of you MLDonkey client.
MLDONKEY_DIR sets name of the directory where the application will run. This directory
must contains all the files describe in mldonkey_ini
MLDONKEY_MESSAGES name of the file where you can found the message for mldonkey.
YAHOO_SERVER hostname of the yahoo server to contact for Instant Messenging.
