Ure words are always well appreciated,,

heheh dont wanna volunteer on a freenet phone in support line eh?

too bad about irc,,,which net is that btw,,,i suppose i still have
it plugged into my irc client,,,

i suppose its easy to do help personnel revenge on irc
here ya go just run this [evil] script (asshole)

the equivalant of say could you hold please and take the handset
and ring it around the inside of metal garbage can, what you still
have noise on your line, let mecheck again, bang bang bang bang

i suppose could hire slave labor from Prison Industries to do support
and get 25% of all the cr card fraud they do to fund the project.

I did have a question does anyone who codes,,,cuz i dont and no one
i know wants to do it,,,to fix up freenews, fec encode attachments in it
take off its limts and read frost whether Jantho likes it or not.
After all Frost is crap and buggy right now, it crashes one of my systems with illegal 
istructions and limps on another, plus he doesnt seem to have his source on his 
website.

Much rather see integrated interfaces ie mail, nntp to existing clients
rather a whole pack of unnecessary freenet only clients.

The everything over freenet project doesnt seem to be going anywhere either..

Is ther published documentation of what can pass the anon filter and what cant i see 
some php is being used here and there. Or some sort of
SPEC for it around?

Um... what?

im teasing


(1) The seednodes.ref file contains *other* nodes, not yours.  If
you
want to publish your own node reference, you may also do that, but
it's
not included in seednodes.ref by default.


really quite often i see mine in the seednodes.ref downloaded with the daily snap, not 
that that matters,,which lead to a trivial question,
the freenet client throws it out when it seeds the routing table, right?

i imagine as far as questions go thats filed under duhh


(2) If people go to my web site, they have my IP address.  I don't
exactly try to hide my identity here, y'know...


i do out of purity to the concept, but i'm a writer and anyone
who knows me or reads my stuff can smell my style a mile a way

 so i can think of a few reason folks might not want
 to put their seed ref on their freesite

I said WEB site.

ah, ok sorry, artists arn't as tight with language
which coders of necessity must be

 Not freesite.  But yes, I do publish my seednodes.ref
file on my freesite as well as my web site.  Even if I were trying
to keep myself anonymous, which I clealy am not, point (1) above
would make this a relatively safe practice.  Remember the Freedom
Seed?  (And before that, the Evil Seed.)


they dont have kitchen recipes for nukes on them either

Of course, a seednodes.ref file on a freesite would not be very
helpful to the original poster, since he was reporting RNFs.  It
would be a bit like giving someone a CD-ROM with drivers on it for
their new CD-ROM drive.

o you bought an iomega once too

was mentioning favorite computer error messages with someone yesterday

my favorite is

keyboard error or keyboard not present
press F1 to continue or DEL to enter setup

Besides isnt the over arching concept more a needle in a needle stack
than a foolproof locked box?

Re: [freenet-support] Lamer Help

2003-01-12 Thread Pete Soden
Actually Jay, I didn't need anyhelp having a healthy node running already,
and I do understand the problems the faces the dev team, but com'on for a
newbie does

 If you continue getting Route Not Found (RNF) errors for a prolonged
period of time, you might need to get newer seed node references.

actually mean anything? I seriously doubt it. a nicer response would of been
try downloading some seednode refs from
http://wooledge.org/~greg/ this should help with the route not found
problem.

And for anyone who would publish a seedref file but don't wont it on their
own personal site they pay for their are plenty of free hosting services
that you can lie to about you age address name etc ot get an account so
that's no excuse.

and didn't someone start mirroring freenetproject.org once? What happened to
that?

 Well gee what a load of help you are to someone who hasn't had the joy
 and benefit of actually using a fully set up node, this sort of attitude

 So why don't we try to be constructive? instead of sarcasm/sarcasm
 1) Mention of these sort of things on freenetproject.org
 2) Add a link to a google search that is looking for the seednode.ref
 from the gateway/failure page?

I had the privelege of being in #freenet for most of Saturday, and a couple
of newbies were confused and frustrated because freenetproject.org was
down, and they couldn't get seeds, latest freenet.jar, etc.

In trying to help some of these poor souls by asking questions and offering
possible options, I was repeatedly flamed on why is freenetproject.org
down?  why isn't there a mirror?  why, why why...

In the end I don't think I was helpful to anyone; I offered to send someone
my jar files, seeds, and whatever they wanted but it wasn't good enough.
One person wanted a specific build (5xx or something), and when I could not
produce it (I don't keep the old buggy jars) I was met with more
complaining and bitching on why everything is screwed up, how freenet has
been in development for the last 70 years, etc.

Greg just gave you good solid advice, wrapped in a little sarcasm.  If
you've spent any time working on this project as I have (albeit client
tools) you may become sarcastic at times, since it so often feels like a
thankless task.  Building an application to ensure true freedom of
communication over the Internet takes more than just a weekend of coffee
and pizza.

Lucky for me, I code for personal satisfaction.  I sincerely wish you good
luck :)

What about compression? 40k max size would mean about 28k (plus headers and 
such) of stuff, I think a compressed seednodes.ref (maybe chopped down to 
fit the size) would be small enough; every platform I can think of has 
support for zip or gzip files so that should not be a big problem.

 That is one possibility; I guess google would then be able to tag them and
 a search for seednodes.ref might help. Everybody should use the very same
 filename, and I'd say seednodes.ref is an appropriate one.

 Another possibility, upload monthly to the ML (weekly?) a seednodes.ref.
 Then it would stay in the mail archives, for everyone to go fetch it. I
 think. :)

  and didn't someone start mirroring freenetproject.org once? What
happened to
  that?

 What are the requirements for that? I might just go and do that.
 I don't have a big pipe to the 'net, but if the choice is between (very)
 slow and down, I'd go for the slow one.

Yeah, it's too bad that people never ever put their own seednodes.ref
files on their own web sites.  I mean, sure, it would be great if
one could go to some place like http://wooledge.org/~greg/ and find
a seednodes.ref file there for the taking.  Or maybe, in some
theoretical alternate earth, one could go to Google, search for
seednodes.ref, and find sites like http://www.whoopis.com/~mbates/freenet/
whence seednodes.ref files could be retrieved.

/sarcasm

Granted, these could conceivably be out of date, but an old
seednodes.ref file is surely better than one which is known empirically
not to work, and it's surely leagues better than none at all.

good thing there isnt a Bagdad or Kabul Radio Shack hun

so i can think of a few reason folks might not want

though i'd happily put your ref up on that freesite

anyway i actually have a question since i havnt been
reading everything on a daily basis recently

where do we get shapshots now?

is freenet at sourceforge still alive
the current snaps have been ack hem a tad odd

like the anon filter for that breif bit
pass nothing but plain text not even links
viola security sovled, pretty funny that one
