Regarding the last sentence - why is it dangerous beyond the fact that anyone can use your node to request/insert files? That is why it is dangerous. They can request or insert files, as a client. Not as a node. Unencrypted, and without the paranoia that is written into the node for FNP connections.

I'd really like to keep a permanent node. What did you set it to? It does work for many users. If it's below some value it won't work; there is some indication that it doesn't work if it's above some value also. It's measured in bytes per second (not bits per second).

[freenet-support] Not using enough avail bandwith - how to increase?
Windows XP Pro SP1 Sygate PF - set remote port local port to 8481 / act as client server / allow ICMP traffic 1 Mb/s down - 128 kbps up Node Version0.5 Protocol VersionSTABLE-1.51 Build Number5100 CVS Revision1.90.2.50.2.128 using 2-3 kB/s up down (measured w/ utilkit ul/dl meter) Had it installed a few months ago (switched cable providers, took ALOT longer than it should have), was eating up plenty of bandwidth (250-800kb/s). Now I can't get it to use enough. 3 days to put 128M in the datastore (10G alotted(240 days to [EMAIL PROTECTED] rate?!?!)) I've tried several times to change the banwidth limits in settings, not sure if I'm using valid numbers, it keeps changing all three back to zero... I would like to use approx 50% of my bandwidth for freenet. I figure that is: D/L: 1024/8=128*1000=128,000/2=64,000 U/L: 128/8=16*1000=16,000/2=8,000 Total: 8,000+64,000=72,000 Anything else I can change? ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
