Why don't you use any language sockets file/server programs?

you have to bootstrap. you need some entry point, so that nodes can start discovering themselves. piratebay for instance has links to torrents. TCP/IP does not know about client/server. it's just nodes with addresses. servers exist because names resolves to addresses via DNS. so you have to understand TCP/IP. or you learn zeroMQ, which is much easier (and I believe more powerful).

Say, I have a small C  (or any other language) sockets client/server program. How can I make it into a decentralized network?

Is every instance of the program a server+client? How can I bypass NAT with it?
