Yet many of the file hash values seen on P2P consist of all alphabetical characters and 2-7. I did some research (including this board) and understand there is a difference between SHA1 methods (Base 16 -vs- Base 32) can someone please:

1) Explain the difference in the two SHA1 calculations (is it just a BASE issue? Am I using the correct terminology?)

2) Explain how to generate the P2P like hash of a file (sha1sum in linux only gives Hex)

3) MOST IMPORTANT - can you convert between Base16 and Base32 (assuming I am using correct terminology) WITHOUT the original file, can a BASE32 hash be generated from the Base16 hash value alone and not recalculated from original file? If so how?

Assume I know (by some magic way:) that a client is willing to download a file from the gnutella network.
Is it possible to initiate an upload to this client w/o waiting for that client to ask for a file? There is an option for "GIV" that is download from client behind NAT/Firewall, but will client proceed and download the file in case it did not ask this specific server to start the session?
Thanks a lot.

I am trying to understand how the serach is working in gnutella2. I read the spec (at Main Page - Gnutella2), but it is not clear enough thus I would like to ask for your help please:

What is the algorithm for chosing the hubs to send Q2?
What is the algorithm for forwarding Q2?
Are there any filtering of QH2 packets by intermidiate nodes?
What are the recommended documentations of these topics?
