2). Peer To Peer File Sharing - How it Works By : Peter Nisbet
Copyright 2006 Peter Nisbet
Peer-to-peer (or P2P) file sharing systems connect users (called nodes) directly together. Some are true networked systems while other contain an element of the client-server structure. That is they contain an element of the original Napster centralized server system where clients are fed by a central server. Examples of this are the original Napster (Napster is now a ‘pay for music’ site) and OpenNap which replicates the original Napster functionality.
