Overview: Most of the peer-to-peer overlay networks either provide a centralized way to join the network or rely on out-of-band methods for that purpose. None of them is satisfactory, since the first one relies on a single point which can fail, thus making the network vulnerable to failure and the second one gives no solution to the problem. This paper explains a new approach to the problem, using already existing systems such as Usenet, Internet Relayed Chat (IRC) and Web search engines to advertise the presence of an overlay network on the Internet and thus facilitate the binding of new nodes into such a network, in a fault tolerant way.
