The client ID is a random integer from 0 to 2^31-1, but there is<br>
nothing that prevents the user to edit client-id.txt. The client will<br>
send whatever is in there.</blockquote><div> </div></div>The client ID should probably be a hash of some information related to
the machine that it is run on, not a random number. This way the number
is related to the system it is run on so that if the client were to be
reinstalled on the same machine, the same client ID would be made.</div>
