Stunnel For Windows

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

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 (or http://manyhappy.members.beeb.net/stunnel.zip for if you don't have winrar installed)

Just extract the files.

Then run the stunnel.exe.

Once the icon is in the tray, just set DC++ to connect to localhost:8000 and it takes you straight onto twofo.

You can of course download stunnel yourself from http://www.stunnel.org/ , but you would have to configure it yourself to connect to hub.twofo.co.uk: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 consult the help guides that come with them or google for the answers.

For information on blocking off campus connections to DC++, please see http://www.twofo.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Help:Contents#Firewalling_out_Off_Campus_Connections

Stunnel For Linux (As requested By Echelon!)

If you use Valknut you can simply add a Bookmark to your Hub List for twofo - Address: hub.twofo.co.uk:4146 and then under 'Profile' make sure you've ticked the 'Secure Socket Layer' (SSL) box.

If you use another Direct Connect client such as LinuxDC or DC++ under WINE, you will need to install Stunnel. You can get Stunnel from http://www.stunnel.org/ or your package manager/repositories depending on your distro. Once installed add the following lines to /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf under 'Service-level configuration'

[twofo]

connect = hub.twofo.co.uk:4146

accept = 127.0.0.1:8000

(You can pick any high numbered port you like instead of 8000)

Next open a root terminal and type the command:

stunnel -d twofo -c -d localhost:8000 -r hub.twofo.co.uk:4146

Finally, open your Direct Connect client and connect to 'localhost:8000'
