There is mldonkey which connects to quite a few networks including fasttrack which is the Kazaa-lite network (it doesn't use mldonkey by default, but I think it can be enabled through the menus, if not then through the setup file). There are packages for debian, you need mldonkey-gui mldonkey-server I am not sure if they are in the regular archives or whether you need to use the following line in sources.list: deb http://marillat.free.fr/ unstable main The gui takes some time to get used to, but is not too bad. -- Micha Feigin [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
