Thinking about it ,I am not sure how uTorrent or P2P clients really work after all. So the option of checking what most people have is out of the question… How does uTorrent make sure that the chunk received is the chunk it should be getting. Surprisingly, this doesnt work Force recheck. Swear at the screen making heavy fist thumps and hand gestures. NO DOESNT WORK and its FRUSTRATING that Id to DELETE my 90 downloaded torrent Good ol thump. Let’s say there are files $A$, $B$, $C$ among 10 seeders and I am the receiver. Set download folder and change it and re-download the torrent. So, what is used instead? I’ve been reading that some asymmetric functions are used and that files are encrypted using the destination's public key.īut I am unable to wrap my head around it and say* “ok, this will work in P2P”*. Then later on, I found out that a checksum isn't used at all for this purpose. So all a hacker has to do is make a file with smaller sum and then fill in the rest with garbage that way file would have equivalent checksum, but completely different content. Then you can download or add torrents etc, by including the above package in your flutters pubspec.yaml file. Heres what you can try to download torrents: Install your torrent client software Setup username and password for Web Ui in the preferences. Which didn't make sense for obvious reasons… for example it's not hard to get the same sum for different numbers. It has support for many torrent clients and lets you control them remotely. I am very new to concepts of cryptography so bear with me and feel free to fill in any information that may seem obvious but something you think someone may not know.Īt first I was under impression that people use checksums to determine if files are legit or not.
