Is it possible to support SSL?

[john_doe]

Hey Buanzito! I've just downloaded this new crap of yours. Looks decent :p Now I have a couple of questions for your "beered-hacks0r" brain...

First of all: Is this plugin using the GUI protocol or just talking to core through web interface?
If using web interface then my requirement is viable. If not, stop reading

OK, I access my mldonkey web interface through SSL from another server running apache, making use of mod_proxy to do the http forwarding.
Now I wonder if there is any possibilities to make DonkeyFire support this kind of connection.
And I have also another question. Does DonkeyFire have proxy support?

Well that's all...see you around...GAY!

Hey John, I'm glad it's useful for you.

It uses MLDonkey's HTTP backend (usually, port 4080).

In Donkeyfire's Preferences, you can set the URL to either:

http://somehost:4080
or
https://somehost:4080

Problem is, current version forces to http:// - So, Donkeyfire WILL support https in next release (tomorrow probably). Regarding your proxy question: it uses whatever proxy Firefox (or another extension, like FoxyProxy) tells nsIWebNavigation's loadURI() to use.

Greate man! I'll be waiting for the fix

FIxed in CVS.

Excellent! It's working now!!

THANKS!!!

Ok using it in my LAN using no proxy nor ssl it works flawlessly

Now, I'm at work. Here I have to use a proxy and I access MLDonkey web interface through ssl as I explained in my first post. DonkeyFire connects ok. But shows no transfer rate: 0.0 KB/s. Neither show a thing in the bar at the right. here is a capture:



Ok, my transfer rate when taking that cap was of 0.4 KB/s, but no 0.0 KB/s....
Could this be a problem of DonkeyFire?

[buanzo]

No. It's the rate you had when that information was obtained. You can tweak the update_interval if you want quicker updates, or just "click" the Donkeyfire statusbar to get an on-demand update.

Again, you're right...

Thanks again man!
