Hi
I never had an empty servers.ini file before when installing mldonkey... it's also the first time i installed it with the synaptic package manager of ubuntu... i didn't see where it installed mldonkey, i guess there i would find a full servers.ini file
and i can't find it with whereis nor find.
anyhow i started the daemon in a random folder (/home/mld/) and the daemon
started (Looks like you have no servers in your servers.ini) and created an empty servers.ini file
i found plenty of server lists, but i don't know in which format i should enter the servers in my empty servers.ini file.
so could somebody be so kind and post his/her servers.ini file, so i can see the format?
Originally posted by danielson ok thanks, so i guess its best to install an older version (how old?)
are the mldonkey coders aware of this? Or is there some trick?
btw: normaly the daemon creates the servers.ini file at the launch filled with servers.
There should be some trick but after 2 days of searching I gave up. I can't remember what version I installed but its certainly not any of the new stable or development builds.
changes in the new mldonkey (2.6.7):
it doesn't matter where you start mlnet, mldonkey always runs (config files, incoming, temp) in >home/dan/.mldonkey$
i was a bit confused in the beginning because i couln'd find the files i've downloaded

Yeah, I noticed this as well. I am not too keen on this beaviour though as the default, but then again most apps put their config files in hidden directories.
