New p2p

[shernoam]

Hi!

We're looking for a partner that knows c++ for a p2p project [eMule based]...

anyone...?

[endersgame21]

Well, I don't know C++ but I am interested in your program. What do you plan to implement in it and what will it be like. Good luck on finding a partner and coding your program.

[shernoam]

Well... It will be a p2p program that will share only specific files... & it will be legal...
that is all I can say... for now... :angel

We are still looking for a c++ programmer...
We plan to make just minor changes in eMule... so there isn't much work to do...

& of course that we will give ALL the credits for the programmer [& eMule] :-)

thanks

Now out of curiousity, what will be your contribution to this project?

I was wondering the same thing.

Since shernoam said the program will be legal, maybe he/she is handling all of the legal aspects and getting the specefic files. But I don't know, we will have to wait until shernoam replies.

Hi all !!!

I will run the server...
& I'm looking for a pratner that knows c++ ,because I don't know c++

& as I said... He will get all the credits for programming it...

:-)
Any more questions ???

[nasrules]

when you say it will be legal do you mean it will only be able to share "legal" files?

Homeya....or Homeya2....or Homeya's friend from *somewhere*.

Back to raise the dead, eh?

[notbob]

probably for trading live shn's or homemade porn or something

not a lot of other legal stuff to trade out there

Your C++ Coder is here!!!

Just e-mail me here here

Now I don't know why you want to make a spin of version of emule but it will be difficult using legal files as it is a open protocol for edonkey and emule so I am not sure how you are going to do that!!!! ummmm

meaning emule + edonkey = share files on 1 network

now I don't know where you program will come into it.

> so I am not sure how you are going to do that!!!! ummmm
From the mention of running a server I assume they want to create a seperate network.

In theory it's easy. I'd do it by modifying emule to download a server list
from a website and _only_ use servers on that list. After that you have
to descide where to do the checking if a file is approved or not.
The edonkey server code is not public so it would be easier to do it in
the client.

Presumably all the files on the network will be approved by the network
operators. Pick a digital signature algorithm, RSA is the default choice
since it is public domain (patent expired), you can cut-n-paste the crypto
code in and it is considered to be secure(when used properly) by experts
in the field.

When the network operator wants to approve a file for distribution he
signs the filehash with the secret private key. You extend the edonkey
protocol a bit to send the digital signature along with the chunk hashes
when someone queues a file for download in their client. The network
public key is distributed with the client so the client can check that
each file has a valid signature. When a client finds another client
that has a file it wants it checks the validity of the signature
at the same time as checking that the chunk hashes correspond to the
filehash. If the signature is invalid then don't download from that person.
You could remove the file from the download list but that would allow
a malicious client to block downloads.

If you want to do this in the server then you will have to disassemble the
server binary or write your own.

The alternative of having the client contact an file-approval server
instead of public key crypto would be lame. Lots of unnecessary bandwidth
use and it all falls over if the server is down.

Keeping the private key secure is very important. It would be better to keep it
on a computer that is not connect to the internet at all. If it is stolen the whole thing falls over

EDIT:spelling

[shernoam]

still looking... anyone?

btw, zaphodiv - it was interesting... ;-)

thanks - but I sent you 3 emails... where are you???
[hope you reading this]

Yes, who in the hell are you, and why are you looking for a programmer on a BBS? Does your mommy know your up this late?

Stop spamming this forum under false pretenses and wasting peoples time.

zaphodiv I cant believe you even wasted your time with this.
