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

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. |

Here's the homepage: "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? > > http://www.frostwire.com 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 :-) Edmund |

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). >> http://www.frostwire.com > > I found that and downloaded "frostwire-4.13.2.i586.deb" > OK now what?

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. |
