Some quick ideas for what could go here:

• twofo to do list
• Example complaints letters to write to ITS
• "Argh! I've been fined" - what to do next
• Mugshot gallery - See http://www.indivisibilities.com/gallery/main.php User name & Password are both "twofo"

From on campus, even with the traffic shaper, you can connect to twofo using a program called stunnel.

Instructions: Download: http://manyhappy.members.beeb.net/stunnel.rar EXTRACT ALL FILES

Run: stunnel.exe Once the icon is in the tray.

Set DC++ via "quick connect" to localhost:9000

PLEASE NOTE: If you download STUNNEL yourself you have a different "config file" in order to get STUNNEL to connect to DC++ please switch the config file with the following information. (Not recommended) (save as stunnel.conf and place in STUNNEL directory and restart STUNNEL.

===============================

Sample stunnel configuration file by Michal Trojnara 2002-2006

Some options used here may not be adequate for your particular configuration

Certificate/key is needed in server mode and optional in client mode

The default certificate is provided only for testing and should not

be used in a production environment

cert = stunnel.pem

key = stunnel.pem

Some performance tunings

socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1

Workaround for Eudora bug

options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS

Authentication stuff

verify = 2

Don't forget to c_rehash CApath

CApath = certs

It's often easier to use CAfile

CAfile = certs.pem

Don't forget to c_rehash CRLpath

CRLpath = crls

Alternatively you can use CRLfile

CRLfile = crls.pem

Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting

debug = 7

output = stunnel.log

Use it for client mode

client = yes

[twofo] connect = twofo.kicks-ass.net:4146 accept = 127.0.0.1:9000

Service-level configuration

[pop3s]

accept = 995

connect = 110

[imaps]

accept = 993

connect = 143

[ssmtp]

accept = 465

connect = 25

[https]

accept = 443

connect = 80

TIMEOUTclose = 0

=====================================

 I have put together a rar file with all the necessary files need for this, which can be downloaded from http://manyhappy.members.beeb.net/stunnel.rar Just extract the files. Then run the stunnel.exe. Once the icon is in the tray, just set DC++ to connect to localhost:9000 and it takes you straight onto twofo.

This has worked fine with the people who have tested it so far. You can of course download stunnel yourself from http://www.stunnel.org/ , but you would have to configure it yourself to connect to twofo.kicks-ass.net:4146

YOU WILL HAVE TO BE IN ACTIVE MODE (on the latest versions of DC++, this is called "Direct Connection") AND HAVE THE CORRECT IP IN DC++ IN ORDER TO SEARCH AND DOWNLOAD. You can find your IP at http://checkip.dyndns.org/ You should not be using the socks5 address boxes in any way. Many people have been finding that they cannot download due the the presence of a firewall, often the Windows firewall, blocking DC++. There is a guide to allowing DC in the windows firewall int he help section of this wiki. For other firewalls, I suggest you consilt the help guides that come with them or google for the answers.

"Just briefly, I myself used DC++ and Bittorrent excessively at the beginning of this term, and my internet was disconnected. Tried various network cables, other people's machines etc, I was pretty sure I was banned. So, being cowardly as I am, I just ignored it, connected to a wireless network someone had in the flat, and went on with my life. After a month I finally rang up, and they said I wasn't on their list. They send a guy round to have a look, he sorts it out, my internet's back and I haven't been fined. Upon enquiry the guy just said it was probably caused by a ban, but there's no record of it on the system now, so just be careful. So whilst I can't confirm that I was banned and would have been fined, I just figured I'd contribute. Move this wherever or delete if you like." - RockLoi.

Feel free to edit these pages (including this one!). if you muck things up, we can always revert back to the previous version. This is a MediaWiki, so look this up for information on how to do funky stuff with the text and graphics.
