Summary | 0000536: Add option to specify listening address in amuled | ||||||||
Description | When you lauch amuled from the command line and perform netstat --listen --tcp --program, you can see it is listening on the configured port and all the addresses. A new option in the config file to specify the listening address (or hostname or interface) would be useful to make amuled a little bit more secure in some cases without requiring superuser privileges to configure the machine firewall. I'm running amuled+amuleweb to control aMule from somewhere else and I thought that would be useful, so only amuleweb is listening to the world while amuled can be set to listen only on the loopback interface. Thanks a lot for aMule and your efforts. Keep up the good work! | ||||||||

I was talking to Kry at #amule and he said it would be useful to post this. I'm not an expert in wxWhatever at all and this is what I found while Googling for 5 minutes, so I don't consider it accurate at all. Anyway: The class wxSocketServer lets you specify the binding address: http://www.wxwidgets.org/manuals/2.6.1/wx_wxsocketserver.html [^] It uses a wxSockAddress which has a derivate class wxIPaddress which has a derivate class wxIPV4address that lets you specify the hostname: http://www.wxwidgets.org/manuals/2.6.1/wx_wxipaddress.html [^] |

You mean the EC port or any aMule port? |
(0001224) Kry (manager) 2005-08-14 02:13 |
Ok, I just added support for opening EC and aMule ports just on selected ips. Please test it (I did some tests, but I'd like you to try): Open a new CVS aMule (from 14/08/2005) Close it open ~/.aMule/amule.conf There are 2 lines: Address= and ECAddress=. Put there the ips (i.e. for your problem just set ECAddress=127.0.0.1) Try connecting to EC from localhost and from outside. And please report the results. :) |

Thanks, I'll do some tests when I come back to my workplace and post the results. :) |

Waiting for them. |

P.S: Notice this is only for listening connections. Outgoing connections must be routed properly. This is not a problem on EC, but it is on aMule, where we do connect to remote instead of beign connected. edited on: 08-14-05 07:39 |

Er... sorry for my bad explanation. I was referring exclusively to the EC address:port pair, eventhough I suppose being able to specify the address in other listening ports and connections would be eventually useful. I'm now rereading everything I wrote and realizing the confusion I created, sorry. |

You did still not report :P |
(0001230) rg3 (reporter) 2005-08-14 23:37 |
Well, Kry, a big big thanks (and $10!) for implementing it. It seems to work alright for me. I'm anticipating the next stable release. |
(0001231) Kry (manager) 2005-08-14 23:50 |
Good to know. |
(0001244) Kry (manager) 2005-08-20 23:32 |
Are you still around? If you are, mind I changed the position of the item on amule.conf, so it's reset, but I added a new item on gui to set it. Make sure you set it back (by, i.e., closing amule, updating, running it again, closing it, and editing amule.conf) |
