Description Jeff Smith 2012-10-18 20:53:19 UTC

With ktorrent version 4.1.3, it works fine. Any version newer than that gives me the illegal ip  error from the tracker at www.tvtorrents.com. A previous version a couple of years ago did the same thing, but it was fixed quickly. I'm not sure about this, but it seems it has something to do with the format of the ip address being sent to the tracker. Tvtorrents is a private tracker and requires a login. It works fine on other private trackers and public trackers too. Transmission, uTorrent,  and deluge do not have this problem with www.tvtorrents.com.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. log in to www.tvtorrents.com
2. start a torrent from www.tvtorrents.com using ktorrent.
Actual Results:  
tracker will return an error. illegal ip

Expected Results:  
Allowed me to download or upload torrents through www.tvtorrents.com

Please fix and try to find a way to keep it from happening again.

Probably a dupe of bug 305187
Send me an invitation code so I can verify this.
