No. A "seed" is nothing more than a client which already has all of the data file, and hence can provide any part of it to other clients. You just need to have the data file somewhere handy, and then point the program at the .torrent (which will refer to the tracker). The program will look at the torrent, verify the local file, then tell the tracker "I'm open and ready for business". - Matt -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
