DHT and some others questions

Wed Jan 23, 2008 6:14 pm
Hello,i would like to ask some questions:

1.IS it possible to have DHT off for some torrents(the one that i DL from private trackers) and DHT on for some others?
2.Is it possible to have ktorrent writting on a partition were the user im running ktorrent with,
does not have write acces to that partition?
3.Does the number of upload slots has anything to do with the line capacity.I can understand that if i have a large number of upload slots and with my 256kbs up speed users will get my data with a really low speed.Other than that does it affect my overall quality as far as ktorrent is concerned,overall speed,general internet speed etc?

Thanx a lot in advance

This is already the case, as torrents with a private flag are excluded for DHT.

No, you need the OS in your favour here.

You need to make sure peers are interested in your upload speed, that is all. I would say 2KB/s at least per slot.

...

If the private-bit in the .torrent-file isn't set, you can manually disable it by right-clicking on the torrent, and checking under "more sources" (or similar, depends on your translation).
