Decentralized server - How do they work
I've a question regarding decentralized server:
I don't know how to describe it but I'd use WinMX as an example:
WinMX doesn't have a centralized server. So when you connect
it just search for other WinMX users randomly.
So how does it search for other WinMX users without referring
first to a centralized server?
My first thought is random ping, but this is impossible since
IP has 255^4 combinations.
Any ideas?
ASM,C,C++,BASIC,VB,JAVA,VBS,HTML,ASP,PHP,mySQL,VB.NET,MATLAB
Programming is fun, but only if you're not on a tight deadline 
So I consider all those working engineers sad people
