Search limited on the Hub ?

[Bapman]

Hi,

I am the admin of a Ptokax hub on a lan 100mbit network and I use it to avoid the limitations of Win/Samba sharing. I thank you very much for all the great job done here but I still have a little problem : searching seems to be limited !
In fact, when you search for something which has a lot of results (for example "video"), the number of answers seems to be limited to 60-70 and so you don't get all the files. Thus, sometimes you can think that a file is not available whereas it is
One more thing : the search doesn't work well with accents : if you search for "vid?o" (with an accent), you should get all the results for "video" (without) and the opposite. I was told by a developer of my client (linuxdc++) that the problem is encoding, but I changed it to any european charset I could, without any good result. That's why I turn on you !

Thanks for the help

Search answers are limited only for passive users, and settings for this is in  PtokaX on options page as "Max passive search replies" (0 = unlimited). How much answers return clients to active client is on answering clients, and is on answering clients what they reply on search request...

Thank you for your answers, I do not understand because all the clients are in active connection

By the way, do you know a way to deal with accents properly :

I do think that at least some clients may
limit the number of search results processed.

In DC++ to active search request is returned max 10 answers, to passive 5. In Direct Connect client is both 5  :

Is there any client not limiting it ?

NO, as af as i know no client developer is too insane to trying to kill hub/clients connection

Thank you for answering me so queekly (and sorry for the noob questions ).

But I am on a LAN network and I think that 10 answers per active client is a far too small. Do you know a way to increase this number or is it locked ?
