eva.02 Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 this could be a big way of spreading µtorrent, if people start to see a large list of people using it, they are more inclined to look into it themselves.inside the program you can see the name reported correctlyhowever when looking at the peers list on the tracker, their code can't seem to handle the µ characterpartially reported herenothing at all on another site (yes i updated to tracker)possibly resort to using a plain u for this string?

vurlix Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 the actual string used to identify µTorrent is "-UTxxxx-yyyyy[...]" where xxxx is the version. This is the same style that azureus and most clients use. Just give other developers some time to make the modifications to their software so that they recognize µTorrent.. That's the only thing that can be done, really. Same with all BitTorrent clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eng Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 the actual string used to identify µTorrent is "-UTxxxx-yyyyy[...]" where xxxx is the version.I've been told otherwise.I checked it again and enabled agent_log in my apache. This is what i get:Azureus 2.3.0.4;Windows XP;Java 1.4.2_05BitTorrent/ABC-2.6.9uTorrentAzureus 2.3.0.4;Windows XP;Java 1.4.2_03Azureus 2.3.0.4;Windows XP;Java 1.5.0_04BitTorrent/T-0.3.7you can see that every client sends data except uTorrent The tracker correctly identifies µTorrent, but doesn't display the version. Problem with tracker or with µTorrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 What you see in the web server logs are User Agents, not peer id. µTorrent's user agent is indeed just "uTorrent", while the peer id is in the -UTxxxx- Azureus-style format.

chaosblade Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 I dont know why he's using user-agents at all when peer_id is exactly for that cause of identifying the client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
