Title: Multiple hubs
Post by: dodgeviper on 16 August, 2007, 10:52:46
Can anyone please tell me how to start 2 or more hubs using the ip but different ports...or is there a software that can help in starting 2 hubs but the computer remains the same...what i mean to say is that i have a lan connection and i am already running a hub on a ip..can any software give me other ip as well retain the same ip so that 2 hubs can be started..

Well This is how i host two hubs on two different ip.
1. take ptokax setup folder (for 2 hubs 2 ptokax in 2 different folder)
2. A) the first folder name it as "a" hub
       i]Go and fill in all the details and the ip u want to host the hub.
       ii]Tick on the option resolve to ip and listen to this ip (both must be checked in the box)
       iii] Add TCP port number as 411 and UDP port number as 411 (if you are using older version of ptokax use secondary TCP port number as 1024)
       iv) Save settings and start the hub
3. B) the second folder name it as "b" hub
      i]Follow as you have done in the "a"hub but this time change the ip
      ii]All port numbers will remain as it was in "a" hub

I thing your hub was not starting with different port numbers may be because you never added the port number that you have mentioned in the ptokax after the ip
example xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:(portnumber that u have entered for the respective ip in the ptokax)
If you would have done it your problem would have been solved long before.
More over using 411 as your port number need not requires you to add it after the ip it will be taken as default and your hub will be running on seperate ip without the port number
example xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ----thats it
i am sure if you follow the instruction you will get a positive result.

It is covered in the wiki (http://wiki.ptokax.ch/doku.php/settingup/general); you should also have told this in the first place...  ::)

Than A  LOt Siffler And Bust..................

I figured out the pRoblem .........................
Evry thing i was doing was Perfect but the only stupidity was, i didnot add the ip in my lan TCP/IP.....

It was really Stupid of me.........Thanx for ur Co-operation.

I use Ptokax on 5 networks, same server, one instance is enough, the othres connect through the same port as ptokax listens on all networks so its just the ip changing, it's a particular case though.

For multiple hub on a same pc just change port, and have 2 seperate folders.
