Are there any file sharing programs for Linux?
 

Just like the title says, are there any programs like Kazaa, WinMX and the like?

i'd recommend searching the site before asking questions. thsi is asked an awful lot

I knew it was probably asked before, and I did search for File Sharing Programs ( in the newbie forum only) and it came back negative. Sorry m8 I should have looked more but there are so many thinks I need (want) to know.

I'll search harder next time and thankyou for the link, lots of good info there.

try Limewire
Hard to install (because of this crappy java thing) but run nice.

I've herd of "Samba".

samba is a networking client server thing that enables os2, windows and others to network with unix/linux boxes

Chris/acid_kewpie - thanks for the great links on your sig (FAQ & how to ask good questions). I bookmarked the FAQ ;-)

for a list of free sharing programs to go http://zeropaid.com

do NOT use Qtella, it sucks balls. i tried to download the song "boogie fever" and it would never be able to download it, i got so fed up that i went onto my Windows puter, downloaded it on Kazaa then FTPed it over

i heard that there is some Kazaa thing for Linux now but i'm not sure if it has a ton of spyware like Windows Kazaa does.

here's a list

it is an utterly brilliant page a user posted about a few days ago. indisposable!
