mlDoneky? Is Possible?

[Coque]

Hello.

 

Currently i'm using Transmission to download torrents in my unRAID server, but i would like download files through ed2k protocol.

 

Searching internet i have found a multi client light-weight app, called mlDonkey.

 

How can i make a pkg to unmenu to install in my server? Is there any way to install in my unRAID machine?

 

Thanks.

[Wuyko_WINDOWS]

I'm also very interested in edonkey client for unRAID. mlDonkey is a real candidate for this. Slackware guru's please help us!!!

There are some things I can just find on the donkey...

+1 too. i think a mldonkey server using remote client is a excellent idea.

To be honest, if you really want it than grab the slackbuild script provided here: http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.37/network/mldonkey/ and the source from the mldonkey website.

 

Compile it into a Slackware package on a Slackware based dev system (no need for a full Slackware install, systems like Salix are also okay) and than try if it works on your unraid machine via installpkg. Sometimes you have to change something regarding the location of the config files etc. via the go file, but you will see that soon enough.

 

Sorry that i cant give you a complete package, but for me eDonkey is the maximum of insecurity. But you obviously only use it for downloading the latest Linux Images

Can this be compiled directly on unRAID?

 

[darkside40]

In theory, yes.

 

But compiling software directly on unRaid is a pain, because you have to install all the necessary developement packages which are not included in unraid via unmenu or the commandline and bloat your system with it.

 

I would really consider setting up a VM with Salix, building the package in there, and then transferring it to unRaid.

From my pov mch easier.

OK, so I have compiled mldonkey on Salix as suggested by darkside40 and it seems to work on Salix (localhost:4080).

 

So I tried to install on unRAID and when I start it "mlnet" I get the following:

mlnet: error while loading shared libraries: libgd.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

 

Where can I get this library and how do I now if there are more dependencies?

PS.

This is the first time I have installed any Linux distribution (other than unRAID) and of course never compiled a package ever.

To get the info which Lib's are requiered by mldonkey you just have to type

 

ldd mldonkey

 

after it is installed. Than you get a list of the required libs.

 

That package here should it be http://search.slackware.eu/cgi-bin/package.cgi/view/slackware-current/slackware/l/gd-2.0.35-i486-4.txz

If the OP is thinking about making a plugin he'd be better off using this link (http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.37/slackware/l/gd-2.0.35-i486-4.txz) because the version in the slackware-current could change at any time.

If it is possible, please attach the compiled version of mlDonkey for testing!?

Here it is (without the libraries mentioned above - didn't have time to lok into it):

Thank You!

Let us know if you get any further than I did.

Unfortunately it's don’t work for me :'(

Please HELP?!

 

[darkside40]

More Info would be helpful.

What did you do?

 

[cableboy]

Did anyone manage to get mldonkey to work with unraid?

 

Perhaps it is possible to write an little how-to.

I've got this up and running as of today.  Install the mldonkey-3.1.3 package from earlier in the thread.  In addition, I had to install the following packages:

 

gd-2.0.35-i486-4.txz

fontconfig-2.9.0-i486-1.txz

libmagic-4.17_4-i486-1as.tgz

 

(I'm sure you can search the web to find these slackware packages).

 

By default mldonkey tries to install to /root.  To workaround this you have to set an environment variable MLDONKEY_DIR.  I put mine in my cache directory:

 

MLDONKEY_DIR=/mnt/cache/.mldonkey
export MLDONKEY_DIR

 

After that, you can start the mldonkey daemon using:

 

mlnet > /dev/null 2>&1 &

 

and access the web server with:

 

http://tower:4080

 

That's as much as I've done thus far...

Thank you!

I used to have it working but have forgotten how I did it! Will attempt again soon and post steps. This may be of use:

Hello...

 

I give up.

 

After installed lots of slackware packages i can't make it function.

 

Can anyone make a step-by-step guide for a newbie in Slackware like me?

 

Thanks.

[Wuyko_WINDOWS]

I installed the package mldonkey following the instructions of botez three posts above, and the program will start immediately. The only thing that should be done before starting the mlnet edit

\\Tower\cache\.Mldonkey\downloads.ini

line for allowed IP range, for me

allowed_ips = ["127.0.0.1";"192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255";]

Hi all,

 

I know this is thread necromancy, but I'm interested in getting mldonkey to work on my unraid server (ideally in a container). Has anything new been made available since? the package listed in this  thread is not available anymore  ... and compiling source code is way beyond me.

 

I tried the amule docker, but even though it connects (on the right non-default ports, gets high id, etc.), it constantly disconnects on its own after a few minutes and Kademlia support does not seem to be doing any of its job.

 

My ideal app would support both bittorrent and ed2K networks, and mldonkey seems to fit the bill.

 

Thanks in advance for your answers!
