In the good old days of Jetstarter and the likes i used to connect to NZ hubs with dc++ (and even had a shortlived server for a couple of months). There were numerous hubs to connect to, the biggest of the day was silverserver which i see the website is still up.. I just did a quick google and from what i could see there are next to no local hubs apart from silverserver. Does anyone have a NZ or fast AU hublist they could pm me? I know they are raging in university campuses but im guessing they are private internal hubs.

I have a mate who is on a private hub... very closed shop ... I can't even get on!




Cheers, Stevo

Dc++ is basicly dead,

there are a few hubs left but nothing like the likes of sliverserver use to be

DC++ is pretty much a redundant technology with the likes of BitTorrent around anywho.
Sometimes it's better to go with the revolution than against it.

DC++ still has its purpose at lan parties but thats about it.
