This is not recommended. The node will not be able to restart itself, so auto-updating won't work, and if the JVM goes off into limbo, it won't get restarted either. Also the node can't generate stack dumps in some places so debugging will be marginally harder. Node.oneConnectionPerIP=Limit to one connection per address? Node.oneConnectionPerIPLong=Don't allow more than one connection per address? This will make it slightly harder for an attacker to connect more than once to your node as different identities, in order to dominate your routing or make harvesting easier. Also prevents having the same node connected on darknet and opennet simultaneously. -Node.opennetEnabled=Enable promiscuous mode (automatically connect to untrusted nodes)? -Node.opennetEnabledLong=Enable promiscuous mode? If this is enabled, the node will automatically exchange node references with other untrusted nodes (Strangers as opposed to Friends). But this means that the fact that you are running a node is no longer private, and many attacks are much easier. If you know enough people running Freenet, you should stick to trusted (Friends) connections to them. +Node.opennetEnabled=Enable insecure mode (automatically connect to untrusted nodes)? +Node.opennetEnabledLong=Enable insecure mode (aka opennet)? If this is enabled, the node will automatically exchange node references with other untrusted nodes (Strangers as opposed to Friends). But this means that the fact that you are running a node is no longer private, and many attacks are much easier. If you know enough people running Freenet, you should stick to trusted (Friends) connections to them, and turn this off. Node.outBWLimit=Output bandwidth limit (bytes per second) Node.outBWLimitLong=Hard output bandwidth limit (bytes/sec); the node should almost never exceed this Node.passOpennetPeersThroughDarknet=Relay opennet noderefs through darknet peers?
