I've got a couple of ideas for enabling local sharing between Gnutella nodes on the same LAN. This could be a big advantage on university LANs where people are...

LimeWire multicasts queries to the subnet and returns any results as blue stars and highly rated. This pretty much optimizes the direct subnet. We have some...
Hi Michael, Gnutella supports some of these ideas already. LimeWire has used multicast queries for approximately two years now, to easily find content on...
Hey Michael, The details are in LimeWire's HostCatcher.Bootstrapper. (It will only fallback to this if LimeWire's local source cache was empty. The ...
Just note - my assuption is that we give back more than just the local pong. I presume that we pong on behalf of any fresh ultrapeer (slots?) that we know...
Yup -- we request with a special GGEP extension 'SCP' ("Supports Cached Pongs") and whether we're a leaf or an ultrapeer. The replier, when seeing that, will...

How do you discover those short-lived clients?
Could they be clients, which try to get a good connection and start more connections than they keep in the...
... I crawl the whole Gnutella network, capturing the entire population. I do this many, many times in a row, and compare the snapshots to see which peers have...
Hi, The multicast address all LimeWire clients join is 234.21.81.1, on port 6347. I don't believe there's any strict LAN limitation on the packets sent out,...

As we all know limeware uses a ultrapeer and leaf two layer structure. And a leave peer only connects to several ultrapeer. so, i am doubting, is this a...
We qualify hosts as being ultrapeer capable if they have significant bandwidth, processing and uptime. QRP hashes help both leaves and ultrapeers to forward ...

What exactly are you talking about? What is your level of understanding of the advances made on the Gnutella network? I don't think you appreciate the...

For my understand, whenver a new peer is going to be connected and becoming part of Gnutella, it needs to know the IP addresses of the current online peers and...
... Thanks, dynamic DNS would be fine for connecting back to my own machine but the problem I'm more interested in is creating private sharing groups. You...
From previous e-mails I understand that the major Gnutella clients have adopted what is called support for high outdegree. This leads to better connectivity by...
