SSK?  Really?  Not KSK?  If so, you've found a gpl.txt variant I haven't
seen yet.

But I suspect it's more likely you misunderstood the content of the text,
which was trying to tell you why [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not a secure key.

Patience.

If you said "yes" when you were asked about being a transient node,
then your node is transient and won't serve data to other nodes.
If you said "no" (or took the default) then you have a real node.
(Assuming of course that you are not firewalled.  If you are, then
that mostly explains your problems.)

And since you got a DNF, it means you're actually talking to other
nodes.  Keep trying, or get some seed node references from someone
whose node is having better luck than yours.

I can't see it yet, but keep trying.  Be sure to insert your URL into
TFE's submission thing, because that's the best way to advertise your
site to the major Freenet sites (TFE, Raw Freedom, Cruft, etc.).  It
could take a few days before people start to get your site, especially
if your node is badly connected (lots of DNF and RNF).

Again, patience.  And good luck.

[freenet-support] pb connecting gpl.txt on freenet & few questions

2002-10-04 Thread blured blured

Hi,

Just trying to run freenet 0.4 on winXP with jre 1.3.1.

Here are some results and questions :
1) I manage only once to get the welcome test page with gpl.txt, however I'd 
got a jpeg pic with

a nude female and a text explaining ssk is not secure  is it a fake ?

2) the others time I'd got an error :
<<
Network Error
Couldn't retrieve key:
Hops To Live: 15
Error: Data not found


Change Hops To Live
>>

3) if Install freenet is my node publicaly available ? Do I need special 
configuration to make

that works or is it made by default ?

4) I didn't manage to get the search engines dedicated to freenet ...
Always got this error :
<<
Network Error
Couldn't retrieve key:
Hops To Live: 15
Error: Data not found


Change Hops To Live
>>

5) I published a site by freeweb ... the key is : secure -->

freenet:SSK@WeOtwjh~dJSRKJhKDKtCvSXHjP0PAgM/prout//
insecure --> freenet:KSK@freeweb/prout//
does anybody manage to see it ?
(I typed http://localhost:/SSK@WeOtwjh~dJSRKJhKDKtCvSXHjP0PAgM/prout//)

See ya,
blured.

For full details, you should review the list archives for the
development list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

What it comes down to (as far as I understand it) is this:

 1) Your node wants to find a key.
 2) Your node looks through its list of other nodes and chooses one to
ask for this key.  It makes a TCP connection.
 3) If the other node has the key, great.  You get it.  You win.
 4) But if the other node doesn't have it, it will have to go looking
for it, which could take a long time.  It will disconnect from you
if it doesn't find it within some time frame.
 5) If the other node finds the key, it will try to connect to you and
give it to you.
 6) If the other node doesn't find the key, it will try to connect to
you and give you the disappointing news.

If any developers are reading this, and I screwed up, please correct
me.  Preferably using simple English and small words, because we're
a bit dumb over here on the support@ list. ;-)

Then your proxy might be exacerbating the problems that NAT are
causing.  In any case, it looks like using Freenet will be a pretty
miserable experience for you with the current codebase.

But I still don't understand how you are actually *using* SOCKS5 in the
context of Freenet.  Are you sure you aren't simply using NAT?  (E.g.,
if you turn off the NAT and leave only the SOCKS5 proxy, does Freenet
work at all for keys that aren't already in your data store?)

 Are you sure that it's technically required to be able to accept
incoming connections? I am quite sure that my computer is not able to do
so. I only have a LAN-IP, and the only way to contact the web is through
a HTTP/FTP/SOCKS Proxy server.

 I am using SocksCap (http://www.socks.nec.com/reference/sockscap.html)
to acess the SOCKS-Proxy. I know that freenet works, since I can download
websites.

 I had some some 15 connections after browsing through some sites, when
suddenly one connection after the other closed down until none was left.
My traffic monitor didn't indicate any traffic, and I (think I) know that
the SOCKS proxy closes connections that were idle for some time.

 The node is set to transient, yes.

How, exactly?  Freenet requires the ability to receive incoming
connections on at least one TCP port.  If you have a way to achieve
that using SOCKS5 we'd love to hear about it, and add it to the FAQ.

Is this a transient node or something?  How can your node be that idle?
Most of us who run nodes get slammed pretty consistently by traffic,
although there are a few exceptional cases where nodes get very light
traffic (and nobody knows why).

[freenet-support] sending keepalive-packets through connections

2002-10-04 Thread Ephrim Khong

Hi,
I am trying to use freenet behind a Firewall, using a SOCKS5 Proxy
server. It works, but the Proxy is closing any ideling TCP-Connection, if
there was no data send through it for some time.

Is there any option to send some keepalive-packages (I think it doesn't
have to be more than 1 bytes/minute) through all opened connections, so
they don't get closed by the proxy?

thanks,
eph
