Thanks for the quick response. I started the bootstrap-dht and the lftp client and server on the single machine (172.16.250.40) which is a machine without external access to the internet (hence why I want to run my own dht bootstrap service.
The dht bootstrap service is running on port 6881. Here is the server session > lftp -d lftp :~> set torrent:use-dht yes lftp :~> torrent --dht-bootstrap=172.16.250.40 ---- listening on udp [::]:6887 ---- listening on udp [0.0.0.0]:6887 ---- Resolving host address... ---- 1 address found: 172.16.250.40 lftp :~> torrent --share image.tar.gz ---- Total length is 2146267992 ---- opening image.tar.gz ---- closing image.tar.gz ---- Piece length is 1048576 ---- Total length is 2146267992 magnet:?xt=urn:btih:B40B0E478CB94A69CE6A3E811744D09AA7F60D31&xl=2146267992&dn=image.tar.gz ---- listening on tcp [0.0.0.0]:6887 ---- starting search for B40B0E478CB94A69CE6A3E811744D09AA7F60D31 ---- too few good nodes found in the routing table **** no nodes found in the routing table ---- starting search for B40B0E478CB94A69CE6A3E811744D09AA7F60D31 ---- too few good nodes found in the routing table **** no nodes found in the routing table ---- listening on tcp [::]:6887 ---- opening image.tar.gz ---- closing image.tar.gz image.tar.gz: dn:0 up:0 complete, ratio:0.00/0.00/0.00 What isn't show here is the validation of the image.tar.gz that went on.
