Would it be possible to write some kind of scanner that would look at an ISP, say for example, htc.net and display all the Gnutella users there? We seem to be over the "fax effect" (a Snelling point?)

It's a one liner with the fairly standard UNIX tools that ship with OpenBSD and at least SuSE Linux. $ for i in `host -a -l -vv htc.net | grep ppp | awk '{print $5}'`; do nc -w 2 -z $i 6346; done (you can of course run gnutella on ports other than 6346) -- 1024/D9C69DF9 steve mynott steve@tightrope.demon.co.uk too many pieces of music finish too long after the end. igor stravinsky
