How can I configure amulecmd to schedule my upload/download rate?

You have to configure jobs with crontab. Let's do it by example:

bash# crontab -e

00 6 * * * amulecmd -c "setdownbwlimit 20"

00 22 * * * amulecmd -c "setdownbwlimit 0"

Will set your download bandwith limit to 20 kb/s on 6:00am and unlimited on 10:00pm.

I cannot connect to aMuled. It seems aMuled does not create the listening port for connecting to it :-\?

You have probably not enabled External Connections in ~/.eMule NOTE: If setting a value for the ECPassword doesn't seem to work, it might work with no password.
