Default P2P Software

Hi all,

Could someone please recommend a good piece of peer to peer filesharing
software. Something that is annonomous and encrypted would be best, but
anything that works well would also be good.

Thanks in advance,

Tony.

Or FrostWire, which in contrast to LimeWire is free (no nag screens and
advertisements), just try apt-get install frostwire. Here's the homepage:

http://www.frostwire.com

Gtk-gnutella, limewire, apollon, and the giFT clients seem to support
anonymous file-sharing, but don't have encryption.

Although Gaim is an instant messenger, it can probably be used for
file-sharing, and the gaim-otr plugin allows Gaim to support encryption.

I've used both gtk-gnutella and limewire, and I think limewire is better.

To search for giFT clients, issue these commands:

aptitude search '~Pgift-client'
aptitude search '~dpeer to peer'

Limewire (a gnutella client) is not in Debian, but you can get it from
Limewire.com. Look at the wikipedia page on gnutella to get a list of
other gnutella clients.

"apt-get install frostwire"
gives me :

----------
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package frostwire
-------------

Can you tell me what the command
"apt-get install frostwire"
is actually doing?

I found that and downloaded "frostwire-4.13.2.i586.deb"
OK now what? Unpacking gives me:
control.tar.gz
data.tar.gz
debian.binary

On the webside there is "click istall.exe" for windows
but for Linux where the commands for installing a package
is different each and every time there is NO info :-)

To install a .deb package manually, you run "dpkg -i foo.deb" as root
(where foo.deb is a the package name) or install 'gdebi' and you will be
to double-click on the .deb to install it.

Read this:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/re.../index.en.html

Try to read the entire document. Save it to disk and read it offline (if
you're on dial-up).

Files that end with .deb are installed using the dpkg utility. Delete
control.tar.gz, data.tar.gz and debian.binary. Then install frostwire
using dpkg:

dpkg --install frostwire-4.13.2.i586.deb


I hope this helps.
