What does Kad actually do?

[Mizumi]

Does it like help you get more sources or something? How does it work?

[lordpake]

Shortly put, yes. It helps you find more sources in serverless network created by all KAD-clients. Servers are still recommended though, they give you huge amount of initial sources while KAD seems to be useful (at least for me) for finding sources for rare files.
You just enable it on setup wizard or from preferences and let it work.

Could you tell me then, how servers work? ^_^; lol. I am rather new to ed2k. I have been using it for while, but not really tinkered with it at all. Which servers should I connect to? Is it possible to connect to more than one server at a time?

By the way, I am using the eMule v0.43b client if that matters.

[KLITETOOLS]

no you can only connect to one server at a time. sort your list by the number of files and then connect to the one with the most. (most likely its razorback).

[Mizumi]

Yeah, Razorback 2 seems to have the most. But is full so I am on DonkeyServer 4 right now. If I set the priority of Razorback to high, will it try to log on to that server first? Also, a lot of times when I log in it says that I have a lowID, but I don't know how to fix that.

You can find answers to this and all your other questions here (http://emule-project.net/home/perl/help.cgi?l=1&rm=show_topic&topic_id=111). eMule is a little tough getting used to, but it rocks once you do. ;)

yup, it might be a bit hard to learn, but once you get the hang of it, you'll find network that is soo rich in content.
