HOWTO: MLDonkey as Download Manager for WL-700g [draft v.0.1]

[metamorphose]

1. MLdonkey should keep seeding torrents, until they are deleted from the \.mldonkey\torrents\seeded directory. But Sancho will not show these files, allthough it will show if anybody are downloading them from you. (in the lower port of the screen, where it says "Uploaders").

You should also be able to find these files if you go to the tab labeled "Shares".

I am aware that normal bittorent clients keeps showing the files, just showing them with the status "Seeding" instead. But you need to remember that Mldonkey is not just a bittorent client, its also a edonkey, and file transfer (http/ftp) client. So i guess thats why the have chosen this kind of structure for the client.

2. I have been looking for this possibility too, but unfortunately i guess its one of the shortcomings of mldonkey

Thank you for your reply. Suddenly appeared one more related question: how can I download file/files based on URL which is password protected. I mean I can access file/files since I have password, however I don't want to download it by a simple browser, I would like to download it by a download manager like Flashget. My purpose is accomplish that in MLdonkey/Sancho. Is it possible?

I tried to use MLdonkey web interface, I pasted URL and pushed INPUT button. I did the same in Sancho. The file/files is/are appeared transfers' list, but download process doesn't start. I guess MLdonkey/Sancho is not able to handle, because password need.

Try using the following syntax as input url: http://usernameassword@www.whatever.com/test.zip

should also work for ftp sites (if you replace http by ftp)

If you hover over the hyperlink in the previous post, you'll see the correct syntax on the bottom of your browser...

Hi,


I tried your tip (I have no success), but situation is more complex, because my username is e-mail address and protocol is secure http.

A.) If I am trying this syntax:

https://myemailusername@myemaildomain.com:password@www.wha tever.com/test.zip

I get: Exception Failure("int_of_string")


B.) If I am trying another syntax:

https://www.whatever.com/test.zip@myemailusername@myemaildomain.com:passwor d

MLdonkey just says: Parsing HTTP url

The last one seems to be good, but nothing happens.

May you have any other tip or trick?

Intresting question. I haven't tried it yet. The problem I think is the username. When it actually parsing the URl it finds two @ characters, where one or zero (logical/bool variable) expected, so the return value of the function will be two (witch is an intger), instead of the two strings (usernameassword and the hostname/dir/file). I'm not sure, just guess.
