[Mldonkey-users] Low or high ID?

[Rainer Krauss]

Hi,

when i do "id" i get this output:

For 140.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx  --->   195.xxx.xxx.xxx
For 195.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx  --->   195.xxx.xxx.xxx
For 194.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx  --->   468xxxxxx
For 64.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx  --->   195.xxx.xxx.xxx

I x'd out some numbers for privacy.

Line 4 is the connection to a lugdunum .p64 Server to which i get very
rare connected and mostly only when i just booted my linux and freshly
started mldonkey.

But if i get a connection the number looks like that. This number is
greater than 400.000.000! What is it?
HighIDs should be IPs, lowIDs should be numbers but far less than this
one.

Btw. if you like to see whats going on just telnet to root and do:

tcpdump -vvv -x -X -i ppp0 -s 0 'host x.x.x.x or host x.x.x.x or
host...' > debug.log

As 'ppp0' enter your internet interface, for x.x.x.x enter the ip of
the servers you like to watch. Let this run for a day and take a look
at the debug.log. I get a couple of "LowID" warnings from servers i
usually can't connect to (Lugdunum >=.p63).
