Starting a Conversation


  1. Download and install Smoke.

  2. Download and install SmokeStack, Spot-On, or Spot-On-Lite. More
    adventurous operators are welcome to create servers using ncat and socat.

  3. Define a private or public listener.

  4. Connect Smoke to defined listener.

  5. Share aliases: super-alias-1, super-alias-2.

  6. Define aliases in respective Smoke instances.

  7. Share public keys.

  8. Done!

```
Steamrolling is the process of real-time broadcasting of complete and
incomplete inbound Steams. Let’s review a colorful example.
*---------------*
| Participant A | <--------------------------------------
*---------------* |
| |
| (Steam A) |
V |
*---------------* (Steam A) *---------------* | (Steam A)
| Participant B | ----------> | Participant C | |
*---------------* *---------------* |
| |
| (Steam A) |
V |
*---------------* |
| Participant D | |
*---------------* |
| |
| (Steam A) |
V |
*---------------* |
| Participant E | ---------------------------------------
*---------------*
Participants C, D, and E shall receive Steam A data as participant B receives
and writes Steam A data. If the stream of bytes between A and B is interrupted,
the interruption will percolate throughout the network. Unique keys are
established between each of the paired participants.
