== Gnutella Web Cache ==
A '''Gnutella Web Cache''' (often referred to as '''GWC''') is a web service that gives computers connecting to [[Gnutella2|G2]], [[gnutella]] or similar [[P2P network]]s IPs to connect to if they do connect for the first time or do not know IPs to connect to for some other reason. This means GWCs (and similar services) are essential for the initial network connection. However, UHCs (on gnutella) and UKHLs (on G2) are more and more taking over the services once performed by GWCs.


'''<This iste is not fully recovered yet, under recovery still>'''
== How you can help ==
If you have a dedicated server and can spare some extra bandwidth then please consider running a GWC. People that don't have a dedicated server or are on normal broadband consumer lines should not run a cache from home.

* [[GWC specs]]

Gnutella requires Gnutella Web Caches (GWC) to get IPs to establish a connection to the network. These are critical to ensuring the health of the network. If you have a dedicated server and can spare some extra bandwidth then please consider running a GWC. People that don't have a dedicated server or are on normal broadband consumer lines should not run a cache from home.
 
A GWC is a simple script that can be put on any webserver that supports one of the following scripting languages:

Gnutella Web Cache

A Gnutella Web Cache (often referred to as GWC) is a web service that gives computers connecting to G2, gnutella or similar P2P networks IPs to connect to if they do connect for the first time or do not know IPs to connect to for some other reason. This means GWCs (and similar services) are essential for the initial network connection. However, UHCs (on gnutella) and UKHLs (on G2) are more and more taking over the services once performed by GWCs.

How you can help

If you have a dedicated server and can spare some extra bandwidth then please consider running a GWC. People that don't have a dedicated server or are on normal broadband consumer lines should not run a cache from home.
