A system and method for distribution, replication, and management of files
and their metadata across a network of file sharing servers for both
preventative and promotion purposes relating to the particular content of
the files. The system and method employ a process for dynamically
distributing and replicating files across multiple file sharing computer
servers using one or more synchronizing computer servers. Once
distributed and replicated on a plurality of the file sharing servers,
individual, or groups of replicated files are processed using a file
modification application, a file input template containing metadata for
each replicated file, and preset file destination template information
present on each file sharing server. By using different destination
template information on each file sharing server in the network, various
protective and promotional aspects related to the files may be realized
when used in a P2P or similar file sharing network environment.
