Im looking for a way to send updated image files to laptops at my work and Im thinking to create something around the torrent protocol to do it. What i really need is a client to download one specific file of my server. I wouldnt want to install a full torrent program on all the computers as it would kinda send the wrong signal how to use the computers ;) So do anyone have any tips? I looked around for clients with commandline possibility but still its not exactly what i want. Perhaps there is even some module being made somewhere? :) |

Depending on how the command line clients work, you can select one and write a front end using TProcess? |

That's exactly what i'm working on at the moment. Finished a BEncode Module a few days ago and now preparing for DHT und Tracker programming. Maybe you should use opentracker and noch DHT should not be that difficult. |

@Hummelpups, Are you using a torrent library (e.g. libtorrent) or writing it from scratch? |
| ||
Thats very interesting :) |

Maybe wait for Brucey to get bored? ;-) |
