I have a few questions. Server-client code with a (distributed) hash table. Give the peers their own port, own node-ID, predecessor and successor ( node-ID, IP and port of them). That's a snippet of it. port= argv[1]; ownNodeID = atoi(argv[2]); sucNodeID = atoi(argv[3]); sucIP = argv[4]; sucPort = argv[5]; preNodeID …
