so what kind of protocol does gnutella use to search for hosts? does it scan the local net block and then nearby netblocks, ipmulticast?
and how's the search function? is it nice and stable, does it check google results too? is there a particular network service that gnutella uses to find hosts? I'm pretty ignorant of the topic if you can't tell. <html><head><title>html sig</title></head><body><div style="font:sans-serif; font-size:72pt;line-height:84pt;color:blue1;"><ul><li>sexy is good</li><li> linux is good</li><li>qed: linux is sexy</li></ul><hr><hr><hr><hr><hr><hr> <a href="http://www.efn.org/~laprice";>laprice at efn dot org</a></body></html> On Sun, 30 Sep 2001, Rob Hudson wrote: > I figured out that gtk-gnutella works pretty good.
