The Edonkey File-Sharing Network
The eDonkey File-Sharing Network Oliver Heckmann, Axel Bock, Andreas Mauthe, Ralf Steinmetz Multimedia Kommunikation (KOM) Technische Universitat¨ Darmstadt Merckstr. 25, 64293 Darmstadt (heckmann, bock, mauthe, steinmetz)@kom.tu-darmstadt.de Abstract: The eDonkey 2000 file-sharing network is one of the most successful peer- to-peer file-sharing applications, especially in Germany. The network itself is a hybrid peer-to-peer network with client applications running on the end-system that are con- nected to a distributed network of dedicated servers. In this paper we describe the eDonkey protocol and measurement results on network/transport layer and application layer that were made with the client software and with an open-source eDonkey server we extended for these measurements. 1 Motivation and Introduction Most of the traffic in the network of access and backbone Internet service providers (ISPs) is generated by peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing applications [San03]. These applications are typically bandwidth greedy and generate more long-lived TCP flows than the WWW traffic that was dominating the Internet traffic before the P2P applications. To understand the influence of these applications and the characteristics of the traffic they produce and their impact on network design, capacity expansion, traffic engineering and shaping, it is important to empirically analyse the dominant file-sharing applications. The eDonkey file-sharing protocol is one of these file-sharing protocols. It is imple- mented by the original eDonkey2000 client [eDonkey] and additionally by some open- source clients like mldonkey [mlDonkey] and eMule [eMule]. According to [San03] it is with 52% of the generated file-sharing traffic the most successful P2P file-sharing net- work in Germany, even more successful than the FastTrack protocol used by the P2P client KaZaa [KaZaa] that comes to 44% of the traffic. -
Conducting and Optimizing Eclipse Attacks in the Kad Peer-To-Peer Network
Conducting and Optimizing Eclipse Attacks in the Kad Peer-to-Peer Network Michael Kohnen, Mike Leske, and Erwin P. Rathgeb University of Duisburg-Essen, Institute for Experimental Mathematics, Ellernstr. 29, 45326 Essen [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. The Kad network is a structured P2P network used for file sharing. Research has proved that Sybil and Eclipse attacks have been possible in it until recently. However, the past attacks are prohibited by newly implemented secu- rity measures in the client applications. We present a new attack concept which overcomes the countermeasures and prove its practicability. Furthermore, we analyze the efficiency of our concept and identify the minimally required re- sources. Keywords: P2P security, Sybil attack, Eclipse attack, Kad. 1 Introduction and Related Work P2P networks form an overlay on top of the internet infrastructure. Nodes in a P2P network interact directly with each other, i.e., no central entity is required (at least in case of structured P2P networks). P2P networks have become increasingly popular mainly because file sharing networks use P2P technology. Several studies have shown that P2P traffic is responsible for a large share of the total internet traffic [1, 2]. While file sharing probably accounts for the largest part of the P2P traffic share, also other P2P applications exist which are widely used, e.g., Skype [3] for VoIP or Joost [4] for IPTV. The P2P paradigm is becoming more and more accepted also for professional and commercial applications (e.g., Microsoft Groove [5]), and therefore, P2P technology is one of the key components of the next generation internet. -

TRANSFERENCIA O DISTRIBUCIÓN DE ARCHIVOS ENTRE IGUALES (peer-to-peer) Características, Protocolos, Software, Luis Villalta Márquez Configuración Peer-to-peer Una red peer-to-peer, red de pares, red entre iguales, red entre pares o red punto a punto (P2P, por sus siglas en inglés) es una red de computadoras en la que todos o algunos aspectos funcionan sin clientes ni servidores fijos, sino una serie de nodos que se comportan como iguales entre sí. Es decir, actúan simultáneamente como clientes y servidores respecto a los demás nodos de la red. Las redes P2P permiten el intercambio directo de información, en cualquier formato, entre los ordenadores interconectados. Peer-to-peer Normalmente este tipo de redes se implementan como redes superpuestas construidas en la capa de aplicación de redes públicas como Internet. El hecho de que sirvan para compartir e intercambiar información de forma directa entre dos o más usuarios ha propiciado que parte de los usuarios lo utilicen para intercambiar archivos cuyo contenido está sujeto a las leyes de copyright, lo que ha generado una gran polémica entre defensores y detractores de estos sistemas. Las redes peer-to-peer aprovechan, administran y optimizan el uso del ancho de banda de los demás usuarios de la red por medio de la conectividad entre los mismos, y obtienen así más rendimiento en las conexiones y transferencias que con algunos métodos centralizados convencionales, donde una cantidad relativamente pequeña de servidores provee el total del ancho de banda y recursos compartidos para un servicio o aplicación. Peer-to-peer Dichas redes son útiles para diversos propósitos. -
Emule for Dummies V 0.1 - by Ciquta
eMule for dummies v 0.1 - by ciquta (Guida funzionale ed incompleta rivolta ai neofiti della rete ed2k) Filosofia ed2k I p2p ed2k (edonkey, emule, emule plus, etc…) sono la generazione “intelligente” dei p2p: si basano sul principio dei “crediti”, ovvero chi più shara risorse, chi più invia, chi in definitiva si impegna di più a mettere a disposizione la propria banda di upload viene maggiormente premiato con slot di download. La quantità totale di upload in qualsiasi p2p è uguale identica a quella totale di download, pertanto più vengono messi a disposizione bit di upload, più vi saranno utenti connessi alla rete e maggiori saranno le possibilità di reperimento di un file e quindi di download. Il che sta a significare che gli utenti collegati avendo un ristorno in termini di download di quello che sharano e soprattutto inviano sono ben disposti a alimentare questo circolo di scambio dati, e i risultati si palpano in termini di reperibilità di file particolarmente rari e di numero delle fonti e di slot disponibili. Il software lato client è open source, pertanto vi capiterà di perdervi tra le mille versioni e relativi modding. Tuttavia la sostanza è sempre simile e notevoli cambiamenti tra l’una e l’altra sono percettibili solo tra versioni notevolmente distanti tra di loro in termini di date di sviluppo, quindi non è certo il caso di cambiare ad ogni uscita di una nuova versione, credo sia sufficiente farlo una volta ogni 3 o 4 mesi a scanso di epocali svolte nello sviluppo. Principali caratteristiche innovative Tante sono le interessanti differenze con gli altri p2p: • Gestione autonoma delle code: eMule non da modo agli utenti di “segare” gli upload, evitando quindi i classici casi di troncamento dei download tipici degli altri p2p, nei quali c’è da guerrigliare con baratti e suppliche per farsi finire un download. -

Additionally, many solutions leak flexibility and more relevant in industrial environments. As the industry itself need a dedicated instance for administrative tasks. These issues has different requirements like (hard) real-time behavior for will becomes more relevant in the future. As mentioned in many scenarios, different solutions are needed to fulfill future challenges. Common Industrial Ethernet solution often leak [3], the future for the industry will be more intelligent devices, scalability, flexibility, and robustness. Most realizations also which can act more dynamically. Facilities as one main area require special hardware to guarantee a hard real-time behavior. of application will consist of more devices still requiring real- Therefore, an approach is presented to realize a hard real- time or even hard real-time behavior. So we think, the existing time network for automation scenarios using Peer-to-Peer (P2P) solutions will not fulfill the future challenges in terms of technology. Kad as implementation variant of the structured decentralized P2P protocol Kademlia has been chosen as base scalability, flexibility, and robustness. for the realization. As Kad is not suitable for hard real-time Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks instead offer an innovative applications per se, changes of the protocol are necessary. Thus, alternative to the typical Client-Server or Master-Slave concepts Kad is extended by a TDMA-based mechanism. -

Bioinformatics is advanced from in-house computing infrastructure to cloud computing for tackling the vast quantity of biological data. This advance enables large number of collaborative researches to share their works around the world. In view of that, retrieving biological data over the internet becomes more and more difficult because of the explosive growth and frequent changes. Various efforts have been made to address the problems of data discovery and delivery in the cloud framework, but most of them suffer the hindrance by a MapReduce master server to track all available data. -

The purpose of this research was to examine the user behavior of peer-to-peer file-sharing software. A methodology of naturalistic inquiry that involved qualitative interviews was used to collect data from 21 university students in Taiwan. The results of the study revealed that a substantial amount of P2P file-sharing software is available to users. The main reasons for using P2P file-sharing software are to save money, save time, and to access files that are no longer available in stores. A majority of respondents use P2P file-sharing software to download music, movies, and software, and the respondents generally perceive the use of such software as neither illegal nor unethical. Furthermore, most users are free-riders, which means that they do not contribute files to the sharing process. Keywords: Peer to peer, File sharing, Naturalistic inquiry 1. Introduction In recent years, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) network transmission technology has matured. -
Final Resourcediscoverysecuritydistrsystems Thesis Linelarsen
Resource discovery and Security in Distributed systems Resource discovery and Security in Distributed systems by Line Larsen Thesis is partial fulfilment of the degree of Master in Technology in Information and Communication Technology Agder University College Faculty of Engineering and Science Grimstad Norway May 2007 May 2007 – Line Larsen 1 Resource discovery and Security in Distributed systems Abstract To be able to access our files at any time and any where, we need a system or service which is free, has enough storage space and is secure. A centralized system can handle these challenges today, but does not have transparency, openness and scalability like a peer to peer network has. A hybrid system with characteristics from both distributed and centralized topologies is the ideal choice. In this paper I have gone through the basic theory of network topology, protocols and security and explained “search engine”, “Middleware”, “Distributed Hash Table” and the JXTA protocol. I then have briefly examined three existing peer to peer architectures which are “Efficient and Secure Information Sharing in Distributed, collaborative Environments” based on Sandbox and transitive delegation from 1999, pStore: A Secure Peer–to-Peer backup System” based on versioning and file blocks from 2001 and iDIBS from 2006, which is an improved versions of the SourceForge project Distributed Internet Backup System (DIBS) using Luby Transform codes instead of Reed-Solomon codes for error correction when reconstructing data. I have also looked into the security aspects related to using distributed systems for resource discovery and I have suggested a design of a resource discovery architecture which will use JXTA for backup of personal data using Super-peer nodes in a peer to peer architecture. -
