Re: [freenet-support] I'll help you with Freenet as soon as I understand it, too
Yep, I was trying to avoid using the gateway (say 192.168.1.1) as a lan-wide (HTTP) fproxy and allow the windows clients (lets say the 192.168.2.0 network) to run freenet themselves in a P2P manner and have the gateway 'leek' the 192.168.2.0 traffic. In many respects to mirror an IP network where unknown IP/addresses go through the gateway for routing.

No problem. Just put this in the Freenet node's freenet.conf file: fproxy.allowedHosts=127.0.0.1,192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2,192.168.1.3 where 192.168.1.1 is the LAN IP of the gateway box, and 192.168.1.2 (etc.) are the LAN clients. Unfortunately, I don't believe you can use a wildcard or CIDR specification for a range of IPs. You have to list each one. Then, the clients can just go to http://192.168.1.1:/ to access the node on the gateway. -- Greg Wooledge | Truth belongs to everybody.

[Unix version] Worked a treat Greg, thanks. I'm actually on Linux and Windows - Linux gateway, windows clients.

Re: [freenet-support] I'll help you with Freenet as soon as I understand it, too
Me too... After watching Freenet for quite a while, I've now recently been in a position to try it out. While by no means technically illiterate, I, as may others I expect, will try and use Freenet (as other interesting projects) by installing first, reading the degrees of documentation second (!RTFM). And this is by far what I find is missing in these interesting projects, a hook of documentation to catch ones interest, enable basic deployment/configuration and reel one in to participate on the real work. So, I am going to notate my findings trying out Freenet, and what I have done to get something working, though I'm not quite sure how much and if it's behaving itself. But if Dwight and Bob care to do the same, perhaps we can assimilate something that we and perhaps other would find useful for a first-time deploy and figure out what are the question we have that others, too, might have. So, Bob, Dwight har far did you get? After a couple of hours of trial and error, and a couple of searching the net, I think my node runs! Next, trying to figure out what its node key is...

I can't find anything in the online bookshops, so I wonder how you all became so expert in a subject for which there are no textbooks - even Freenet's own Help files mostly haven't been written yet! (Actually I wouldn't mind the job of writing some Help files, but obviously I have to understand it all myself first). This is a solid good point here. I'm in the same boat. I need to know this stuff before I go to the switch over. d ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/support ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
