Avdump/Autocreqing
If you should need further assistance setting avdump up visit us on irc://irc.zirc.org/anidb
Note: | If you use a firewall you will have to open a port for avdump first. You can force avdump to use a fixed port with the option -port |
Note: | It is possible to run more than one instance of avdump at once, but not more than three will work ok. At the moment only 10 sessions per ip are allowed by the server, meaning the eleventh instance will terminate the first. Also, if you suffer under NAT, running more than one instance will make it worse. |

Graphical interface
A simple GUI can be downloaded from here: Avdump Gui v1.00 This package includes the recent version of avdump as well.
Because I'm a lazy bitch this is the idiot free version. So hence when you set bs the app won't tell you about it. A not or wrong set username/password combo will just do nothing. Furthermore i'm not handling any sort of bs regarding entering letters where numbers are expected. I'm just hoping the average user won't be too retarded to get the obvious.
