JDCCServer

By Vidar Holen

Summary

Here is the rundown in one sentence:
JDCCServer lets you simulate /dccserver on mirc-free systems such as Linux/XChat. It's unmaintained.

Description

JDCCServer, named after the /dccserver command and the traditional J- prefix for java programs, is a separate program for getting files from people that require those "alternative serving methods".

Features:

Pretty GUI
Receive only CLI daemon mode
Highly dependant on JRE1.4
Support for receiving, resuming and speed throttling files
Easily translatable (technically)
Simple FServe browsing
Craploads of settings you couldn't care less about
No buffer overflows (love java)
GPL!

Missing features/bugs:

Tree browsing has no download feature
GUI doesn't reflect language settings until restarted
Sending back 4 byte status seems broken

Download

Binaries (executable jar)
tar.gz
tar.bz2

With the JRE (or SDK) installed, java -jar jdccserver.jar will start the program. Make sure the jre/bin dir is in your $PATH.

Other things to look at: a list of supported languages, check for firewalls, mail the author, get Sun's java runtime environment 1.4 .

Latest version is 0.0.4, since 12/02-2003. Changelog
