Tracker Info keeps saying "not allowed"
« on: October 19, 2009, 04:14:47 PM »
All my torrent for BakaBT In the tracking Info for my seeds as well as my new downloads say "not allowed" for for everything tracking related except the announce server, which it checks, but to no avail.  Using current version of µtorrent and I don't believe there are any issues on my client side.  I fear it might be a IP blocking type issue.  Is there any way to check that?

It's working as intended. DHT, Local Peer Discovery and Peer Exchange are not allowed with BBT-torrents.

I knew nothing of the outside world. I was just a frog in a well.

dht and co are working in a different way, routing the traffic around the tracker. this is of course an unwanted behavior for a tracker with ratio tracking (as everything downloaded/uploaded that way wouldn't count towards the ratio). that's why all bakabt torrents have the private flag set, disabling everything but the bakabt tracker.
as long as you can connect to the bakabt tracker itself everything is alright.
