Lumen is an alternative Lumina server for IDA Pro.
You can join Lumen in just a few easy steps:
ida.cfg
$IDA_INSTALL_DIR$\cfg\ida.cfg
with your favorite editor,
locate the commented "LUMINA_HOST" and "LUMINA_PORT" fields and set them to lumen.abda.nl and 1234 accordingly.
LUMINA_HOST = "lumen.abda.nl"; // note: the semicolon is important!
LUMINA_PORT = 1234
$IDA_INSTALL_DIR$\hexrays.crt
.
One way to contribute is sharing data, Lumen wouldn't be worth much without it's data, so pushing metadata would be great to keep Lumen good for everyone. If you ever encounter lousy or spamy metadata from this server, I'd like to hear about it in order to improve the server and possibly prevent such cases in the future. If you ever upload metadata by mistake, please don't spam the database - I'll be glad to remove sensitive data if you prove that you're the uploader.
Another way to help is spreading the word. As more users join, Lumen will potentially be able to collect more data with more users available that are willing to push metadata.
