I understand requiring the CCPM connection to be encrypted but not why the _hub_ connection needs to be encrypted. Because someone could snoop the token that is sent through the hub and hijack the connection? The same applies to encrypted transfer connections as well, but they can still be established though non-ADCS hubs.
In fact, DC++ will happily accept unencrypted CCPM connections as well if the connection is initiated by the other client. The current situation is anything but clear to be explained to the users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Dcplusplus-team, which is subscribed to DC++. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1445330 Title: CCPM and hub connection encryption Status in AirDC++: New Status in DC++: New Bug description: I don't understand that why does DC++ require the hub connection be encrypted before the user can initiate CCPM connections. There's no such limitation for encrypted file transfers and I don't see it being mentioned in the extension specs either. DC++ won't even disallow CCPM connections via a non-encrypted ADC hub connection if the connection is established by another client.
