In the eD2k network (unlike, say OpenNap), you only connect to one
server at a time, but this is not a meaningful constraint. On the
search panel, there is an option for a "local" or "global" search. The
first searches clients on such the server you are connected to; for
the second, the server you are connected to will pass your query on to
all the other active servers. Hence this type of query usually takes a
few minutes. Local searches are usually sufficient for most files;
global searches are good for obscure files only one or two users may
have.
