SUSE 10.0 came installed with KMLDonkey.. But for it to work the mlnet core is required so i downloaded the latest version from:
Followed the installation instructions from MLdonkey World
But after running
./mlnet
it spewed this
wraith@Sorceress:~/mldonkey-2.7.0> ./mlnet

2005/11/19 20:35:42 Logging in /home/wraith/.mldonkey/mlnet.log
it would shutdown.. I was quite lost till i read the bit that said
Logging in /home/wraith/.mldonkey/mlnet.log
and checked the log file mentioned and found
2005/11/19 20:35:42 enabling networks: Exception: bind failed: Address already in use at port 4662
This is normally caused by another application currently using this port.
Close that application and restart MLDonkey, exiting...
so now I had to figure out what was blocking or running on port 4462.. Googled it and seems eMule runs on the same port and eMule was running everytime I tried to start the mlnet core.. So i changed the settings in eMule to use a different port and restarted eMule.
Tried the code again and it started fine. I ran KMLDonkey and changed the settings to point to the mlnet file for the core and it connected to the servers fine..
