DreadWingKnight Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Avoid traditional p2p defaults.The random port function in uT gives usable ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowTek Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Would there be any logic in using port 80 to sort of camouflage the torrent traffic as normal website traffic? Or maybe port 21 would make more sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 No, that would not help in camouflaging at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowTek Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Even if I limited connections to one or two peers, and forced outgoing encryption, and disabled incoming legacy connections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 There's many ways to identify a connection beyond ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowTek Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Then what real value is there is using protocol encryption? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 It gets around the simple methods of identifying BitTorrent traffic (like looking for a BitTorrent handshake). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowTek Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 OK, so, taking that into consideration, would there be any possible added benefit to using common ports, such as port 80, in combination with a low number of connections (such as only 1) in regards to remaining "inconspicuous"?Is there anything else at all that can be done to help in going unnoticed?
