[freenet-support] Route not found - stability next generation routing
Hello [EMAIL PROTECTED], first of all I want to thank the developers of freenet and freenet related tools for their work. It is a needed tool these days. However, I have been using freenet for some time - also before next generation routing started. My general experience is that the performance has gone worse: 1) After starting a new node version or not having it online for a while the node sometimes fails to establish a stable freenet connection. I fix this by deleting all rouing files (*_a und *_b in the freenet directoy) and downloading a new seednodes.ref file. However, this does not always work on the first attempt. 2) Even after having the node up for a wile and(!) successfully downloading content, the node more often fails to route the request to other nodes than before NG-routing. Wihtout NG routing I was able to have request returned with 25 HTL with a "data not found" error - a clear indication that the data was not there for sure. With NG routing I am having trouble to get a data-not found message at all, most of the errors I only get "route not found" with 1 or 2 nodes or even 0 being contacted. Now to my questions: a) is there a way to make my freenet node try to contact NEW nodes more often? For example by more aggressivle cleaning up the routing table? b) How can I tweak routing that my node (AFTER successfully receiving data!) does no longer think, it does no know where to deliver the requests to? c) Why does my node deliver "route not found" errors with onlny a few (<< 5) other nodes it tried to contact? How can I make it contact more nodes? (> 20) d) Do nodes tell each other about the nodes they know? e) is it easy to get involved in the freenet development? Since I am a software engeneer my own I have the impression that the ideas behind NG routing are reasonable, but the algorithm itself is not stable, yet. Esp in the special case of starting a node or having one that it not permanently online. I came to that conclusion because I have been reading the support-archive and was surprised, that some people even with NG-routing seem to have good performance (as I experienced it without NG routing).

[freenet-support] My freenet installation experiences
I have been trying unsuccessfully for five days now to get freenet working. My machine is a 256MB celeron, Windows ME, and a 56K dialup modem (OK, I'm not wealthy). Freenet installed OK at first, but I couldn't get much past the YoYo page before it bogged down. "The Freedom Engine" wouldn't load at all. All I get after that is repeated "Network is busy", "couldn't connect to the network", or "data not found" errors, in about equal proportion. I created the user.js file in Mozilla's profile directory as directed (I'm on Mozilla 1.6, and couldn't find any equivalent profile option). Freenet version is 5076. When I tried the freenet configure option, It would seem to work initially, but anytime after the first time, I would repeatedly get "error in freenet, freenet will now close" and it did. After reinstalling, now all I get is "a required DLL file MFC71.DLL was not found". I read that for modem connections it should be set up as a transient node. Without the configurator, the only way I could see to do that is to manually edit default.ini and freenet.ini and change transient to 'true' and delete the comment character. Soon I sdiscovered that freenet resets this periodically, so I question whether I really have it set. When I did get the configuration option working (at first install), you have to go to the geek page to enable setting transient on the main page, but it was still greyed out, so I couldn't set it that way. I have spent days trying to get anything at all out of freenet with no success (OK, I got to the YoYo page once, but haven't been able to since). Is this experience typical? From the archives it seems like lots of people are having similar experiences. I would like to get it working, but it seems completely unuseable. I'm wondering if the network is full of mis-configured machines like modem-based windows boxes with transient set to false. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Finance Tax Center - File online.

[freenet-support] Re: 60016 - no upstream bandwidth usage - lots of RNF
When I try to get a DBR Freesite (like DFI) I always get a RNF, I tried a lot of them from the History of my Browser. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[freenet-support] 60016 - no upstream bandwidth usage??
Hello, 2.5 hours ago I updated my node to the build 60016, and started it. Till now it has NO upload traffic (~300 bytes/sec). Normally my node is running ~10 Hours a day, since ~5 months. The node normally needs to reach my upload bandwidth limit (13 KB/s) within ~10 minutes after it was started. some stats: Connections open (Inbound/Outbound/Limit) 101 (27/74/512) Total amount of data transmitted/received 4.822 KiB/3.644 KiB Current upstream bandwidth usage257 bytes/second Instantaneous local traffic:4738,139 queries per hour diff default.ini freenet.ini ipAddress=XXX listenPort=XXX fcpHosts=XXX doAnnounce=yes diagnosticsPath=x:\xx\stats storeFile=x:\xx\storage storeSize=20480M routingDir=x:\xx\routing-data inputBandwidthLimit=7 outputBandwidthLimit=13000 logLevel=Normal logFile=x:\xx\freenet.log rtMaxRefs=70 rtMaxNodes=102 maxHopsToLive=15 initialRequestHTL=10 maximumThreads=150 tempDir=x:\xx\freenet\ mainport.params.servlet.1.params.passThroughMimeTypes=text/plain,image/jpeg,image/gif,image/png Need more data? freenet.log.gz Description: application/gzip ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
