[freenet-support] Duplicated references

2004-03-11 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In the current unstable seednodes there are
 313 references, but only 162 unique nodes.

Of the 162, a lot are artifacts leaved by
 updating or changing port.

Can this be a problem, considering the
 current hight reseeding frequency ?

FWIW.   Marco

No. There are several ways to evaluate it. My favourite is push/pull
tests. Insert a file on one node, and fetch it from another unrelated
node. How long does it take? How many retries? Etc. That is one
performance measure. Another one is does streaming work?. Nobody has
been crazy enough to try recently to the best of my knowledge :).

   On the Web interface, I can't load The Freedom Engine, Dolphin's Free

   and Content of Evil.  I can load the Freenet Help Index and YoYo.  This
 is
   possibly due to unreachable, out-of-date nodes.  The stuff that does
 load
   seems to work better than before.
 
  Basing your evaluation of your node's performance on what's appearing
 and/or
  reachable via the main web interface is not a good idea.  Most of the
 gateway
  sites have been horribly unreliable for quite some time now (with the
 exception
  of DFI).  I really don't know why this is the case; I've had no trouble
 at all
  inserting DFI daily.  To ensure that the next DBR update is inserted in
 time, I
  always start the update process (an automated, scheduled job) at least 1
 1/2
  hours prior to the rollover time (12:00 am GMT).  I'm wondering if other
  gateway site maintainers are not allowing enough time in advance for their
  inserts to complete on time.
 
  DFI's insert got a little screwed up yesterday, due to the fact that I
 was in
  the process of running a portupgrade of my JDK under FreeBSD.  Probably
 due to
  the additional load on the system from running the build, FIW somehow
 ended up
  inserting DFI one day further into the future than it was supposed to.  I
 didn't
  discover this and finally get the problem corrected until about 8:30 pm
 CST
  (2:30 am GMT).
 
  I saw someone else here basing assumptions about their node's behavior on
 the
  fact that they couldn't reach YoYo!  Unfortunately, Yoyo! is one of the
 more
  unreliable sites lately (no idea why).
 
  Anyway, the gist of the idea is this: don't assume that non-functioning
 gateway
  sites mean your node is not working.

  That's not too hard is it?  Let me know if you have a specific question.

 Hi,
 
 I hope someone can answer these questions for me.
 
 I've got build 6281 installed and running. This link:

Where did you get build 6281 from?

 http://127.0.0.1:/servlet/nodestatus/version_histogram.txt
 says nodes: 49. Does it mean that:
 - there are 49 freenet users total online at this moment,
 - or there are only 49 of them my PC knows about,
This option. There are 49 nodes that your node knows about. No one node
will normally know about the whole of the rest of the network.
 - or something entirely different?
 
 What is the expected number of users and amount of shared data
 in Freenet
 at any given moment?

Stable branch: around 10,000 nodes, I don't know what amount of data,
probably in the gigabytes range, in terms of actually reachable content;
might be more. We can't accurately count either users or content because
of freenet's anonymous nature.
 
 Is it normal that Freenet does not even attempt to saturate my
 upstream bandwidth
  like all other p2p networks do ( bandwidth usage stays around
 500 bytes/second,
 the channel is 128 kbps )?

No.
 
 How long should it take for the client to learn about the
 network, at least to the extent
 where it manages to open all links from
 http://127.0.0.1:/servlet/nodeinfo/ ?

Not all the links are inserted every day, so some of them will remain
unreachable. However I'd expect the node to saturate your uplink, or at
least, to saturate the set bandwidth limit which default to 12kB/sec,
within 24 hours or so; performance should have improved significantly in
that time.

One other thing: if you are behind a NAT or firewall, you will have to
jump through some hoops (not only forwarding the listenport, but also
telling the node what it's external IP address is in the config).
 
 Thanks

Re: [freenet-support] need a program to crawl links in freenet

2004-03-11 Thread Toad
Unfortunately crawling freenet via HTTP will have the main effect of
DoSing your freenet node, because every web download takes up a thread,
and we therefore limit parallel HTTP downloads to 24-36. Ideally you'd
want a real FCP spider; there must be one out there somewhere.

 A winbox, eh?
 
 Well, there are dozens of freeware and shareware (crack available)
 windoze programs to recursively download websites. Sites like
 www.tucows.com, www.nonags.com, www.shareware.com etc list them by the
 score.
 
 You might need to try a few until you hit on one which doesn't molest
 the '//' in freenet URIs.
 
 Once you choose a site downloader program, you'd need to point it at:
 - http://localhost:/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/TFE//
 - http://localhost:/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/YoYo//
 or, point it at whatever site(s) you need, observing the above URL
 syntax. Be sure to disable the timeout (or extend it to an hour or so),
 because these crawler progs are used to web performance.
 
 One last thing - these crawler progs won't be able to tell one freesite
 from another, since it will perceive all freesites as part of the same
 'site' at http://localhost:/. So take care to set a pattern match
 requirement (unless you want the crawler to suck the whole freenet).

[freenet-support] Periodically restarting the node...

2004-03-11 Thread Krist van Besien
Hello,

As on my system my node reliably goes haywire after about 6 to eight 
hours I need to restart it periodically. I'm just wondering what the 
effect is on how well my node is integrated in the network.

I read on the list that a node needs to be online for a while until it 
will have gathered enough info about neighbouring nodes to server 
content with any rate of success.

So what will teh effect be if I restart my node every six hours?

This is odd... maybe a timeout in FUQID?

Re: [freenet-support] This error is showing up in my logs a LOT

2004-03-11 Thread Toad
I'd guess it was a problem with the OS, or the JVM. You can however work
around it by setting ipAddress=my ip address and ipDetectorInterval=0
in the config file (remove any preceding %'s or #'s first), and of
course restarting the node.

  my neighborhood and I'll probably sign up pretty soon here, but for 
  now, dialup is where I'm at. Really, if people are trying to use 
  freenet to get sensitive information (the stuff governments want to 
  censor), it's very possible they'll be on dialup also, so I don't think 
  there's quite zero use for dialup, you know...
 
 It's a matter of what is possible. If dialup is what you have, unless
 the network is working VERY well, your node will not work well.

Having said that, some of the major freesites were inserted for years
from a modem...

 Why is my Linux node fetching .exe programs? And why the connectivity 
 is so poor? I have only one peer node???

So it can give them to windows users. We download all the components,
regardless of operating system, so that we can generate the distribution
ZIP (see the Spread Freenet link on the web interface).

You can download something which claims to do this from:

http://127.0.0.1:/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/spider/5//

I tried it (in a sandbox Linux account, which is absoltely the minimum
precaution anyone should take if running code downloaded from an
untrusted anonymous source) and it seems to work pretty nicely.
If you download it, and it inserts your credit card details into Freenet
and emails your mother with pictures of hard core porn, all before it
deletes your hard disk - don't blame me, you run this entirely at your
own risk.

I get many of these (using FIW 0.08):

#11 02 ***RouteNF *removed* (Chunk 6) [42/42/42]

they can't be right as I only have 50 nodes in my routing table and a max
connections number of 100. I also get quite some of these:
java.io.IOException: Premature end of stream
	at fiw.fcp.FCPMessage.readMessage(FCPMessage.java:34)
	at fiw.fcp.FCPConn.insertStream(FCPConn.java:263)
	at fiw.fcp.FCPConn.insertStream(FCPConn.java:218)
	at fiw.core.jobs.InsertJob.run(InsertJob.java:231)
	at fiw.core.jobs.Job.run0(Job.java:131)
	at 
fiw.core.jobs.PooledThreadProducer$PooledThread.run(PooledThreadProducer.java:97)

It also complains very often that it can't fetch an inserted chunk, while I
can fetch it without a problem through fproxy. This leads to continous insert
retries whitout FIW inserting the mapfile.

Please provide reference to a good glossary.

 precaution anyone should take if running code downloaded from an
 untrusted anonymous source) and it seems to work pretty nicely.

Is sandbox just Linux term or does it have broader application?

A sandbox is a area of limited functionality where one can control a 
programs behavior. Think of it more like a jail. Java applets (web 
applets, not Freenet) run a in sandbox. This way, if the program is 
malicious (or badly written), it can't do any damage outside the 
sandbox (in theory, anyway). If a Java applet tries to do something 
not allowed by the security policy (write a file, open a network 
connection, change the security policy, etc), Java will raise an 
exception. Note the ActiveX controls do NOT run in a sandbox.

For Linux, there was a project, Subterfugue, which could create a 
sandbox for a program, but its not currently maintained. There is also 
User-mode Linux (UML), which lets you run Linux in Linux - everything 
run the the UML environment is trapped and can't do any damage outside 
its environment.

Hehe. That 42/42/42 (do you know Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's guide to
the galaxy?) is just a code for bad things happend as any other
combination of at least twice 42.

In that case it means that an insert returned a DNF message which is
invalid according to the spec and thus treated as a RNF. (RFC1122
Robustness principle). Toad told me that he had fixed that but most
likely he hasn't...

 I also get quite some of these:

 java.io.IOException: Premature end of stream
   at fiw.fcp.FCPMessage.readMessage(FCPMessage.java:34)
   at fiw.fcp.FCPConn.insertStream(FCPConn.java:263)

Hmm. Why does fred close his connections prematurely? It's not because
you are restarting fred?

 It also complains very often that it can't fetch an inserted chunk, while I

 retries whitout FIW inserting the mapfile.

set the default priority in advanced settings so that the mapfile is
inserted first. This should speed your insert up somehow. Then you
can disable to ignore local datastore. This will make your insert
much faster, but much less reliable as well. I don't know what FUQID
is doing, but if it does similar things, I understand that insert is
faster.

No, I'm not restarting fred. Frost and fuqid also don't show errors like this.

I'll give it try on the next insert.
