Since its inception in the 1980s, NFS, or Network File System, has become the standard used by network administrators for sharing files over a network. Developed by Sun Microsystems, NFS allows multiple users to access the same file systems and disks over a network between UNIX hosts. NFS uses a client-server relationship that requires client computers to have the necessary access to the shared files. In some cases, a password may be required. An NFS root permission denied error is a common error with many causes.

Using Rendezvous, friends and family members on the same local computer network could stream music and other digital content from each other's iTunes libraries without purchasing and downloading the files onto their own hard drives. In 2003, a graduate student at Trinity College in Connecticut named Bill Zeller developed an add-on program called MyTunes that allowed users to download digital files from other users' iTunes libraries, essentially making it a peer-to-peer file-swapping software. The latest and last iteration of Zeller's software was called MyTunes…
One of the problems with torrenting is that your IP can be tracked while sharing and seeding a torrent. While there's no concern for litigation when using the torrenting software for legal uses, such as the download of free software or public domain works, keeping your identity secret from other users can still helps users feel more secure while downloading files. Your most common solution for anonymous traffic is to use a VPN (virtual private network), which generates a false IP to protect your own. However, services specifically for anonymizing torrents are available.

Transferring the title of a home to the buyer after the close of a real estate transaction requires the filing of a deed in your county recorder's office. The deed changes the title to reflect the name or names of the new owners. Some ways of holding title automatically give one owner the inheritable share of property after a co-owner's death. However, this right to survivorship is not inherent to all forms of joint ownership.
