Hi, Looking at the services section in the http://libyahoo2.sourceforge.net/ymsg-9.txt YAHOO_SERVICE_P2PFILEXFER = 0x4d YAHOO_SERVICE_PEERTOPEER = 0x4f P2PFILEXFER - transfer a file between two peers, yahoo server not used PEERTOPEER - check if peer to peer connections are possible Sometimes pidgin (http://www.pidgin.im/) displays the internal IP address of a user when we do Get Info from menu. One of my friends is shown 192.168.1.3 right now!. Digging into the source pidgin-2.0.1/libpurple/protocols/yahoo/yahoo.c The function yahoo_process_p2p, at line 2020 shows that the p2p service packet does contain the IP address and it is base64 encoded.
Verified. The packet contains the address of the sender.
"pidgin -d" will output -
Got P2P service packet (from server): who = xyz.host.com, ip = w.x.y.z
purple_debug_info("yahoo", "Got P2P service packet (from server): who =
%s, ip = %s\n", who, tmp);
when engaged in p2p transfer.
