    Setting up a restricted file sharing network

    I am trying to figure out which is the best program to setup a small P2P network amount a small group of friends? Basically, I want to find a program that will allow us to share pictures, music, etc, but control access to the network.

    Any pointers or help is appreciated? One aspect of this is that it needs to be fairly straight forward for the members to join as they are not computer savy.

    DC++ sounds like a good bet... make a hub there and invite them all in. I don't know how to do it, but I'm sure you could find someone here that does.

    Or IRC, don't know if it would be better or not, but it's sorta the same concept. Make a channel, invite them all in, and you can send files back and forth. I don't know how to do it, but I'm sure you could find someone here that does.
    People standin on top of the white house, there's people standin up on capital hill...
    They stand up there, sound like they know something...
    They all still wake up in the morning, drink a cup of coffee and take a shit, they aint better than I am.
    And they dance around a problem... say this... talk about the eco-nomic imp-li-cations...

    But their grandfather, great great grandfather, was just like my great great grandfather, just a bunch of monkeys swingin up in trees shittin in the woods.

    With IRC, you could make a private channel.

    Otherwise... what was that one that winamp guy was working on.... whatever that was, it was kinda neat.
