I’m researching how bittorrent DHT works and came across your article via a google search . It’s a nicely written explanation at about the level of understanding I’ve gained so far. I’m eagerly awaiting the elaboration promised in “part two”.

Hi xnon,

I am working on DHT support in Unworkable. I have encountered numerous limitations in the OpenBSD VM while developing the application, and have had to work around these as best as possible. Most of these do not crash the system however - although there was one bug which was fixed a few months ago. Let me know if Unworkable is able to trigger any crashes on OpenBSD.

Thanks for your comment!
