So you're running a transient node. DON'T! An attacker can easily figure out that you're running a transient node and infer that any requests coming from your node were initiated by YOU. A transient node could be made safe by turning it into a client proxy - that is, by removing the routing table and routing to one of a set of specifically trusted nodes, which is basically what you're proposing. At this point, it seems to make a lot of sense to separate the client proxy from the node.... _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
