PtokaX BOT sharing it's own files.

[MorriesAUS]

Good day, I've tried to find this in the forum without any luck. Please refer me to a link if I might have missed it.

I'm running PtokaX on an Ubuntu server, this same server has a large amount of data I would like to share. I was wondering if the dummy PtokaX bot user can also share this content. I don't really want to install another DC client on the same server.

I also just use the console mode on the server. So I'm not looking for a GUI solution. Is there an easy way to setup folders that can be shared from PtokaX or the bot user itself?

There was a "commandline" dc client in the past, maybe microdc?... I used it on linux to share on my hub.

UP: Yes, on FreeBSD it is available as microdc2. Search for it with apt...
