It'd be nice to know how to test this w/o requiring another active P2P peer. That said, I found 10 characters, simply from syntax. If we didn't mind it being like 30 lines long, we could take advantage of newlines for another 15ish characters.
$p=shift;$a=a(shift);i(shift);socket S,2,1,6;bind S,$a;listen
S,5;undef$/;while(@ARGV&&($_="$p $a f".shift)||accept(C,S)&&($_=<C>)&&
+close
C){m!^(.*?) (.*?) ([e-i])([^/]*)/!s&&$1 eq$p&&&$3($2,$4,$')}sub e{open
F,'>',$_[1];print F $_[2];close F}sub f{t($_,@_)for keys%k}sub
g{open(F,'<',$_[1])&& t($_[0],$a,"e$_[1]",<F>);close F}sub
h{t($_[0],$_,'i')for keys%k}sub i{$k{$_[0]}=1}sub
a{$_[0]=~/:/;pack'CxnC4x8',2,$',split'\.',$`}sub
t{socket X,2,1,6;$w=shift;if(connect X,a($w)){print X
"$p $_[0] $_[1]/$_[2]";close X}else{undef$k{$p}}}
Update: This is what I just submitted back to the author. I think it ends up being 516 characters over 8 lines.
$/=$_;$(=shift;$a=shift;i(shift);socket S,2,1,6;bind S,a($a);listen

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
