oh, and I want to have reports on how you use it, i e how many users typically in your hub, how it's going and so on...if you don't reply to this thread, you'll be removed from the beta testers group...

haven't upgraded to .18 yet, but i average about 160+ users in my NMDC based hub and don't feel comfortable replacing it with DCH++ yet so I run it on another port (iaconhub.com:5002) on the same machine running as a service. I've had about 10 people at once but haven't really stress tested it yet. There are a few bugs (the nick one I mentioned last week primarily) and some features that I have in the NMDC hub that I need taken care of (self-reg) before I can move over.

I've been using DCH when our main POS hub crashes and no one can restart it at its remote location (roughly every other weekend). So, I just change the redirect to my computer. For the most part it has been working great. Every once in a while, the thing wil use 100% cpu and stay that way till restarted. At first I thought it was ZAP 3.6, so I ditched that and installed Kerio. That still didn't make a difference so I dont know whats happening (Win2K+SP3). The user count ranges from 50-60.

I'm not comfortable enough yet to replace it as our main hub simply because I know nothing about Luna and there are really not that many scripts out there for it to replace all the scripts we're using now (searchkick, dc++ tag hider, discusting porn search, nickverifier (informs ops if someone joins with a hub tag thats not registered), and the trivia bot (ok, not needed but nice))

When I do feel comfortable to replace the hub, is there any easy way to export the users out of nmdc and into dch ? I can use Stimbot's user export, but how can I get them automatically into DCH ?

I'd write you [a] perl script, if the stimbot output is plaintext. that should be a matter of seconds.

well i do appologise, i am going to be honest but as of yet i dont lie, i did some stress testing, like 70 users in 2 mins and it handled searches, pm's, chat like a charm and remained stable on my machine.
however i ran into problems when i couldent even get my friends in because they had supposibley invalid charactors...... this is a shame...
secondly i dont like LUA i find it really confusing and cant be arsed really lerning LUA................

and last, the reason i like dc so much is the interaction and development..
in dch you dont even see the hub... lol

)

anyway im sure it will turn out really well cos i know the ++ team r really friggin good and can do some genious work

if the formatting is the way I think it is:

Code: Select all

[username1][password1][False][sometime]
[username2][password2][False][sometime]
[operator3][password3][True][sometime]
[username4][password4][False][sometime]

then the perl script would be:

Code: Select all

while(<>){
  /^\[([^]]*)\]\[([^]]*)\]\[([^]]*)\]/;
  $L=($3 eq "True")?2:0;
  print "\t\t<User Password="$2" Level="$L">$1</User>\r\n";
}

assuming the OP-level is 2 (on line 3)

add the output to your access.xml and restart (do not +refresh) dch++

run this on win32 like:

Code: Select all

C:\> type PATH_TO_NMDCH\DCHub.UserList.Bak | PATH_TO_PERL\perl.exe file_with_the_above_code.pl

the output should look like:

Code: Select all

                <User Password="password1" Level="0">username1</User>
                <User Password="password2" Level="0">username2</User>
                <User Password="password3" Level="2">operator3</User>
                <User Password="password4" Level="0">username4</User>

Currently running a private hub for ~100 users sharing 50-200Gb each very nicely. CPU/memory/bandwidth usage are all amazing compared to other hub software.
Just gonna upgrade to 0.18...

KeithK · Post by **KeithK** » 2003-03-04 11:40

I'm still running it as a private hub with only a few volinteers. I haven't dled 0.18 yet but I'm still getting "ork" in my hub and not going online untill I can figure out where it comes from.

Persson · Post by **Persson** » 2003-03-04 16:03

I'm running the hub as a invite only hub were my partners and I try out our new software. Usually around 5 - 10 people in the hub but we have been up to 20 in some times. I have tested the scripting with lua a little and I have found no problems with it yet. I use it as a service. It's not up 24/7, more like 18/7.

I run it on:
AMD Athlon XP 1800+
768MB DDR PC2700
160GB WesternDigital

I don't feel any slowdowns by running it all the time.

Sedulus, Here is a sample output of the stimbot export (the guys name is [HM]Pood ) :

Code: Select all

[$L$HM$R$Pood][password][False][2/27/2003 12:36:08 AM]

When I tried your perl script, all I did was pop open the DCHub.UserList.Bak file. I ran "DCHub.UserList.Bak | perl.exe dch_userimport.pl" All files were in the same directory and perl is in my path.

w00t! Just upgraded to .18 and the nick problem seems to be gone! I had about 10 users come over and they seemed to be pleased. I think I'm going to redirect everyone in my hub for a few minutes and see what they think. If this only had self-reg i'd be set (and LUA confuses me. I suck at programming.

)

just updated... its seems to be running smoothly, looks good to me. I will report any act up if it does occur.

ahyes, the brackets had to be escaped of course.

Code: Select all

while(<>){
  /^\[([^\]]*)\]\[([^\]]*)\]\[([^\]]*)\]/ or die "choked on: $_";
  $U=$1;$P=$2;$L=($3 eq "True")?2:0; # store extraced values
  $U=~s/\$L\$/[/g;$U=~s/\$R\$/]/g;   # unescape $L$ and $R$
  $P=~s/\$L\$/[/g;$P=~s/\$R\$/]/g;   # idem
  print "\t\t<User Password="$P" Level="$L">$U</User>\r\n";
}

you forgot the "type".
run either:
type DCHub.UserList.Bak | perl.exe dch_userimport.pl
or
perl.exe dch_userimport.pl < DCHub.UserList.Bak
and if you want the output in a file, do:
type DCHub.UserList.Bak | perl.exe dch_userimport.pl >somefile
or
perl.exe dch_userimport.pl < DCHub.UserList.Bak >somefile

P.S.
the usernames shouldn't contain < or >
the passwords shouldn't contain \ " or &

I am still interested, thou i have a new laptop that i could test the linux-version on. Am i still in?

deftonzs · Post by **deftonzs** » 2003-03-11 12:12

tests have been running great, you can get to the hub with the address...

deftonzs.com:1411

reached almost 300 users (50 at the moment). Very stable, very clean... all around nice, i will be switching it to my main hub deftonzs.com:411 very soon.
