Distributed.net

Distributed.net is a project of Calcul distributed created in April 1997 by Jeff Lawson.

Dnetc

Dnetc is the name of the software customers. It recovers on a waiter of the keys, the draft, then sends them on the waiter. It is available in binary format for the following architectures/OS (nonexhaustive list):
