Re: Port forwarding / firewall

OK, upon looking into this a little bit further I found that both DIME and TTD verify ports using the same method. The only difference is they have there timeout interval set lower than ours.

I've made a couple of changes to the software to *hopefully* help out with the problem of not getting credit. One thing that does help is to login to the site *prior* to starting any torrents. This makes sure that the database knows who you are and what your IP address is prior to you starting your torrent so that when you do start your torrent, the tracker already knows who you are. Let me know if that helps out at all.
