note: the network currently favors local requests by default. There is no since in stopping this. If you want to make sure they rout others data too? You can't. Especially if we are tolerating transients. If you want a long term and more ideal solution to insure fair routing and attack resistance go back and read my proposal for a "decentralized trust based" routing scheme a little while back. _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
