Default Connectable and SSH.
Hello,
I am using xbtit for my torrent tracker website, and I have a serious problem - none of the clients (including me) are able to become connectable. This happened when we changed hosts, we moved to webhostingworld.net.
They have disabled SSH, could it be the problem that's affecting connectibility? If so, are there any alternatives of setting up tracker so people can properly connect?
I hope you understand what I mean, please reply! :)

maybe it's from firewall from the server .. i don't know or it's from your host provider.

I think the problem is that there are blocked ports, and that might be in the announce.php, I found a script in there:

Code:
 
if (portblacklisted($port))
                err('Port '.$port.' is blacklisted.');
            else {
                $sockres = @fsockopen($ip, $port, $errno, $errstr, 5);
            if (!$sockres)
                $connectable = "no";
            else {
                $connectable = "no";
                @fclose($sockres);
                }
            }
I tried changing ''no'' to ''yes'' and it seems to be working, but could that be the only place in the whole script that's blocking ports? Or should I be looking for more? Could you please point me in the right direction?
Also another question, can someone please explain to me, how does SSH affect bittorrent?

SSH does not effect BitTorrent, although some hosts block the peer exchange between BitTorrent clients hence why I asked what error you got... Especially over-selling hosts. If there was no problem before you moved hosts, it's your new hosts you should be speaking with.
