I have the same problem. I look into the source but it seems that ocaml is not my language. :)

As I see MLD use a hash with ip and port. Instead it's great if you use ip only hash and thereafter may compare the port. If the new ip exist drop it else add it. If you want to finetune apply this rules to the source exchange only. I think the ocbmaurice best server met file doesn't had any duplicates. In other words you give priority to the downloaded server met file instead of exchanged.

bye

i have not seen large servers using well known ports

a reason to run on a well known port to get through the firewall seems to me to mean that you dont have permission to run a server

plus allowing these ports would also mean you can ddos targets by spreading hosts with these ports to the network

Some servers may use well known ports on purpose to try to get around some firewalls

some disrupting clients seem to spread fake hosts with random ports ( mostly in the 61000-65000 range ) flooding the server list and disrupting connecting to servers.

i have not seen real working servers using more then 3 ports to allow connection and never in the high range.

i know using a static list will solve my problem but i rather use a dynamic list

autobanning such servers would be nice

also not allowing servers to use strange ports ( in the high range [ 49152-65535 { dynamic or private ports } though most would see anything above 10000 as the high range ] or well known ports [ irc, web, mail, SMB, rpc, telnet, ssh, ftp, etc... ] ) would make life easier
