DO P2P?

I'm thinking about doing an app that needs limited P2P functionality (number 
of clients should be small, probably never more than 100, as opposed to 
something that's designed to scale to a huge number of users) and I had some 
questions about ObjC DO and its suitability to this.

I'm still learning ObjC and the APIs so please pardon any dumb questions =)

I've read Nicola Pero's DO tutorial, but I'm looking for something more in 
depth. The tutorial covers a single server (or 2, one local one remote). Is 
it possbile to have an arbitrary number of servers providing the same 
functionality and call then all? Is there a way to find all servers for a 
service on a network? Anybody know of any in-depth docs on this?

Also, is there a way to implement security in the actual network calls?
SSL for transmissions and identifying clients and only allowing certain 
clients to perform certain actions?

I know GNUStep DO can't interoperate with OS X DO, but are there any gotchas 
at the API level I should be aware of, as I would want the application to be 
source compatible on both. It seems to me I read about a makefile setting 
that would restrict usage to OS X compatibility, but I can't find it now =)

Thank You,
