Is there a bittorrent proxy? I'd like to put it on the machine on my LAN that is always on and has a huge disk. The proxy would take requests from any user on my LAN and carry out the request for them. This way, they wouldn't have to remain logged in themselves during the download, and could just turn their machines on when the download was complete.
Since my LAN is IP-masqueraded, it would also simplify the IP-forwarding that would otherwise be necessary to use bittorrent. I can't I can't IP-forward to *all* the machines on my LAN, and taking turns gets to be a nuisance. With a proxy, I'd just have to IP-forward to the proxy (or not, if it was the gateway machine). -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
