Hi,

I am planning to create a file sharing program using peer to peer connections. I know I can do this in VB but I am just starting out using VC++, and the things I need to know to get to this goal will probably help me learn VC ++ better.
I have no server, so when a user downloads the file sharing program and runs it, it will send the user's IP address to a file on a website. The addresses may build up as people go on. Then if someone wants a certain file, their program will connect to the computers using the IP addresses that it downloaded from the file on the website. They can then downloadthe file.
Would this idea work? Im sure its been done before. There is no need for an actual server, just webspace to store the IP addresses online...
