??? P2P sharing for Linux

Does any1 out there know of a good program besides Bit torrent?
I have been trying to setup wine to run Kazaa lite but it refuses to work. I did find some refrences to a kazaa client for linux but apparently it was malware anybody who had more luck?

Some suggestions there
Other ones are BearShare and LimeWire - Both java based Gnutella clients.

I'm not sure if you can get on the Kazaa network from Linux

Yeah file sharing is easy and great! ( IMO better than windows )

giFT - A file sharing daemon. http://gift.sourceforge.net/ && http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=34618
giFT FastTrack plugin - connects to Kazaa network. http://developer.berlios.de/project/...p?group_id=809
giFT Gnutella plugin - connects to Gnutella. http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=34618 (Scroll down on the page)
giFT OpenFT - an open network. http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=34618 (Scroll down on the page)

You will need to pick up a client as well try one of these - http://gift.sourceforge.net/clients.php

This is a great file share program, but installation is not for the weak of heart.

You have xMule too if you like the eDonkey/eMule network.
