Do you mean for TCP/UDP programming or for Gnutella (what ever that is...) specifics?
Gnutella is a peer-to-peer file sharing protocol, it is true p2p unlike some, it operates without a central server.
have a read through this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnutella its got some info about the protocol, im sure theres more to be found at google, also there may already have been an open source client on pscode.com so try there too.
so what sort of level are you at? is it vb6 or .net, and have you ever used winsock or sockets of any type before? a good vb6 place for learning sockets is www.winsockvb.com
@TPM - thx for rate:D :thumb:
I know about winsock. I've been programming with it for a while now. Thanks for the link :wave:
