Yes, the comment is wrong. You can disable use of the system-wide file by setting use_global_hostiles_txt to FALSE. You can also configure in the GUI under Preferences->Network. The main reason to allow both is that you can add a few additional ranges without having to copy the system-wide file and it also prevents that you have a stale hostiles.txt in your ~/.gtk-gnutella which is not updated when you update gtk-gnutella. I always make them symlinks to the svn respository but I doubt everybody does this. Though, this is somewhat problematic for hostiles.txt because it rejects ranges that overlap, IIRC. I think that's bogus and a PITA but I won't fix it in the near future. -- Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
