I recommend turning on debug in lftp before this command and see how bootstrapping goes. Maybe it's a port mismatch problem. lftp uses 6881 by default. Do you really need your own bootstrapper service? I can usually bootstrap from one of: dht.transmissionbt.com, router.utorrent.com, router.bittorrent.com. -- Alexander. _______________________________________________ lftp mailing list lftp@uniyar.ac.ru http://univ.uniyar.ac.ru/mailman/listinfo/lftp
