[REBOL] [p2p] p2p file sharing
From: gchiu:compkarori at: 21-Jun-2004 10:56
An update here.
Using the client at
http://www.compkarori.com/reb/rp2pclient.r
I can transfer a 3.6Mb mp3 file in 7 mins locally ( same city ) and I think someone
else said it took 15 mins from NZ to the USA.
If you want to grab the server source, it's called %viewserver.r and is available using
the client :) If you set up a "server", please change the name so it's not "Graham"
...! If you're behind NAT, you need to setup port forwarding and open a pinhole for
the port you choose.
Ok, xmlrpc wasn't intended for file transfer but heck, it works! The client supports
file resume if it encounters a network error.
If someone wanted to, you could also produce stats on speed of data transfer and display
them... but really the idea is to transfer source code for collaboration if you don't
have IOS.
The intent is that the client and server will be combined to make it true p2p ...
