Firon Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 DHT is a distributed network to obtain peers from for public torrents. It is trackerless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burns83 Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 sure, but how does it get the first peer?Is it saved in the torrent file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 uTorrent uses its own bootstrap nodes normally, and if those fail, it will allow bootstrap nodes to be entered into a torrent and loaded from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 The first few DHT nodes are obtained by bootstrapping router.utorrent.com. From those, the rest are found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
