Direct Connect is a peer-to-peer file-sharing protocol. Direct connect clients connect to a central hub and can download files directly from one another. An old implementation is known as NMDC (NeoModus Direct Connect), a new one is ADC (Advanced Direct Connect) which includes a lot of improvements.
Direct Connect clients
LinuxDC++

# apt-get install eiskaltdcpp
Advanced Direct Connect hubs
uHub
uHub is a high performance peer-to-peer hub for the ADC network. Its low memory footprint allows it to handle several thousand users on high-end servers, or a small private hub on embedded hardware. |
Installation (Wheezy/Sid):
# aptitude install uhub
