<P>Hello,</P>
<P>I wonder if someone could clarify re the hash algorithm used with Chord:</P>
<P>I am currently implementing Chord in OPNET. Only 2 types of hashing function are currently available in OPNET (neither SHA-1, one is based on djb) - Is there a particular reason integral to the operation of Chord as to why SHA-1 should be used or would any hashing function be adequate?</P>
<P>Many thanks in advance.</P>
