Don will need to share his .torrent file out - it's only in the kbytes
(prob 15k or so)

The tracker will not do this - it only tracks connections - not sharing
the torrent file out.

He could put the torrent on the Yahoo Groups file share area.

OK.... do you know if I can take the ISO that I'll already have and make
BitTorrent think that it's successfully downloaded it and its therefore
available to share to people on Don's .torrent, or would I be best just
downloading it from the tracker that Don's made and leaving it open on
the machine?
