In many respects to mirror an IP network where unknown IP/addresses go through the gateway for routing. OK, this is quite different from what you said before. Let me make sure I've got it straight this time. You have a gateway with internal IP address 192.168.1.1 and external IP address A.B.C.D. It runs NAT or IP masquerading. You have a LAN of multiple Windows computers with IP addresses 192.168.2.*. Somehow these are able to talk to your gateway at 192.168.1.1 (implying that you have a netmask of /22 or less, rather than the traditional /24). You want to run a Freenet node (transient? non-transient?) on each of these Windows machines, and connect them to the larger worldwide Freenet. If you want to run transient nodes, no special steps are required. The transient nodes will simply make requests to other Freenet nodes via NAT/ipmasq, and receive their response packets just like any other normal TCP/IP connection. If you want to run real (non-transient) nodes, then it's different. You'll have to allocate one unique port for each Windows machine, and forward that port from the gateway to its respective LAN client. On the LAN client, you'll have to make Freenet listen for FNP requests on the port that is forwarded to that client. You will also have to make sure that the node advertises itself with the public IP of your gateway (A.B.C.D) and the port number which is being forwarded to that client.

Also, nobody's forcing you to use KSK. Assuming a better mechanism exists what is it? Use SSK keys (public/private keypair). There are several documents on how to create a Freesite. Unfortunately, the best ones are in Freenet itself, which means that if Freenet is broken, there's a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem. The best of the best is Nubile, which is at SSK@qe3ZRJg1Nv1XErADrz7ZYjhDidUPAgM/nubile/10// It's an edition Freesite, not a daily one, so if the 10 doesn't work you can try 9, 8, etc. If Nubile isn't listed on the gateway page, then it damned well *should* be. (I have a feeling the Freenet developers don't like the edition sites; because the URL isn't a constant, they don't want to risk putting a potentially easy-to-become-outdated URL in the software distribution. The irony is, a daily site isn't even one tenth as reliable as an edition site. If a DBR doesn't get propagated on any given day, the whole site is down for 24 hours.

Phil Marlowe ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: I'd like a quick and easy method of deriving the CHK key for a document, other than reading the nodes' response to a successful insert. The Java is nearly indecipherable to me. But it's got something to do with an SHA-1 digest, and a base-64 encoding, and the number 0x0302. freenet/src/freenet/crypt/SHA1.java gives us some sample test strings and their SHA-1 digests. So let's start with: jekyll$ echo -n abc | openssl dgst -sha1 a9993e364706816aba3e25717850c26c9cd0d89d That matches the first test string listed in the SHA1.java source code. So far so good. This is a 40-digit hex number, which is 160 bits of information. Now let's insert this key into Freenet: jekyll:~$ echo -n abc abc jekyll:~$ CLASSPATH=~freenet/freenet-ext.jar:~freenet/freenet.jar java freenet.client.cli.Main put --htl 0 CHK@ abc LALA: State PREPARED reached.

The next clue apparently comes from a comment at the top of the source file freenet/src/freenet/client/FreenetURI.java; it says: * freenet:[KeyType@]RoutingKey[,CryptoKey][,n1=v1,n2=v2,...][/docname][//metastring] So apparently, our CHK is actually constructed of the following pieces: KeyType: CHK RoutingKey: YzHLBuNS4cxy8vi82SbA9rb7BBsKAwI CryptoKey: dliOt6Q1Ih0eILULih-bmQ client/FreenetURI.java also says: * RoutingKey is the modified Base64 encoded key value. * CryptoKey is the modified Base64 encoded decryption key. So apparently one should be able to base64-decode the RoutingKey and get something that contains, possibly among other things, the 160-bit SHA-1 digest. Unfortunately, this is where I hit a brick wall. I get this far: jekyll$ perl -e 'use MIME::Base64; print decode_base64(YzHLBuNS4cxy8vi82SbA9rb7BBsKAwI);' | hex 0x: 63 31 cb 06 e3 52 e1 cc - 72 f2 f8 bc d9 26 c0 f6 c1.F.RáÌròø¼ÙÀö 0x0010: b6 fb 04 1b 0a 03 02- ¶ûD[JCB I see the magic number 0302 which I also saw in keys/CHK.java -- so that seems like a good sign.

Or maybe somewhere out there in the strange world of Freenet there's actual human-readable documentation which is a tiny bit more verbose than http://freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Glossary/Keys is.

It will only write a mapfile if every single page has inserted successfully *in this run*. I think that's too much to ask. I'm thinking along the lines of a daemon, that keeps trying to insert documents of a very large non-DBR site. If the index.html and mapfile get out there, then the site is partly useable, and that's better than nothing. The rest of the site will presumably make it out there eventually.

I think the error message quoted above is actually being produced while Freenet is processing the seednodes.ref file, which contains a list of node refs (public keys) for *other* nodes. One or more of the node refs in that file is probably corrupted, which causes Freenet to ignore it, and to produce that error message. If I'm right, then we can safely ignore the message. Truthfully, I'm not sure what it means. But it has something to do with your node's own nodereference, which is located in the myOwn.ref file in the main Freenet directory. The file myOwn.ref is created by the Windows installer as a convenience for people who want to share their node reference with others. That file is not read by Freenet at all. The node's private key is in the node_X file. That is the file that Freenet reads upon startup. The myOwn.ref file is basically the public key which matches it. If you keep getting this kind of error AND your node doesn't start working after you've tried the above, you may want to consider DELETING the myOwn.ref file WHILE YOUR NODE IS TURNED OFF. When you restart your node, this file should be recreated correctly. That will have no useful effect. Also, I'm pretty sure that Freenet will *not* re-create that file automatically simply by being executed.

Jim ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: Anyway, I downloaded the latest build and run the start-freenet script. Freenet went crazy and spawned many java processes and maxed out the cpu usage. Is this a common problem or should I investigate further. That's pretty normal. When you first start a new Freenet node, it has to initialize the data store, which is a CPU- and I/O-intensive operation. (It creates a one or more huge files on the disk, their size being dependent on the values you filled in during configuration.) After that, the many threads will remain (Freenet is inherently a multithreaded Java beast), but CPU usage should drop for a little while, if you have a sufficiently modern computer. After *that*, if you're running a non-transient node that's pretty well connected, your CPU usage and disk I/O may shoot back up when other nodes start making lots of requests aimed at/through your node. If this interferes with other processes running on your machine, you can throttle it down a bit by adjusting the maximumThreads parameter: # Should we use thread management? If this number is defined and non-zero, # this specifies the max number of threads in the pool. If this is overrun # connections will be rejected and events won't execute on time. maximumThreads=120 Depending on your computer, you might want to lower that to 90, 60, or whatever seems comfortable. If you aren't already doing so, I'd suggest running Freenet as its own user (I cleverly named mine freenet). This lets you stop the node simply by executing killall java as that user. Also, if you're using per-user process limits, then the huge number of threads/processes that Freenet creates won't affect your normal user's limits. Finally, it also insulates Freenet from the rest of your system a little bit, just in case someone finds an exploitable bug in it.

Give it a moment to catch its breath, then try the four keys on the gateway page again. This would be very useful if I did not have to download a new jar everytime I stop FreeNet. I strongly suspect that it involves conflicting copies of java; but working with java is about as isolated a project as working with FreeNet. Most of the material is just too technical (read, jargon filled) unless one is about 75% of the way toward full understanding. Um... what? I have no idea what you mean by this. If you're on Windows, you use the rabbit icon in the tool bar to stop your node. Then you can just overwrite the seednodes.ref file in the directory where Freenet lives (usually c:\program files\freenet). Then restart Freenet however you usually start it (reboot, or Start-Programs-Freenet-Freenet, or double-click an icon on your desktop, or whatever). If you're on Unix/Linux, you just kill the java process(es) that constitute the Freenet node, overwrite the seednodes.ref file, then rerun the start script as the appropriate user ID. This seems to be the largest problem with FreeNet. It is assumed that all newcomes are acquainted with at least several friends that understand FreeNet as well as being trusting of distributing their file of node refs.

When I connect to the FCP port, it accepts the connection, then immediately closes it: Following up to this: I poked around a bit using ktrace/kdump and found that the Freenet java process was getting a Resource temporarily unavailable error while attempting to read 1 byte from a file descriptor which I believe was the socket. This problem occurred on all Freenet ports, not just the FCP port. It seems that there's some sort of weird timing/blocking issue going on with this Java VM under OpenBSD (possibly a problem with the Linux emulation?). If I execute this command: $ telnet pegasus then it closes the connection as I indicated earlier. But if I execute this command: $ echo -e 'GET / HTTP/1.0\n' | nc pegasus then it works correctly. This makes me suspect that a read() from the socket which was supposed to be blocking was actually being done in non-blocking mode. Or maybe it's some other bug somewhere.

It worked. 6) make install 7) Adjusted /usr/local/bin/java and javac symlinks to point to Kaffe: cd /usr/local/bin mv java java.old mv javac javac.old ln -s ../kaffe/bin/java java ln -s ../kaffe/bin/javac javac 8) Went to /usr/local/kaffe/jre/lib/i386 and added the symlink: cd /usr/local/kaffe/jre/lib/i386 ln -s libkaffevm-1.0.7.so libkaffevm.so.1.0 That's it.

[freenet-support] OpenBSD 3.1 open files
One more note for OpenBSD users: By default, it seems that normal (non-root) users in OpenBSD 3.1 get a soft limit of 64 open files. This is not enough for a busy Freenet node with the default number of threads. The hard limit on open files is 128, though, so if you raise your open file descriptor limit to 128 and then decrease the number of threads (not sure what the optimal number is yet), then it works MUCH better. (You can raise the number of open files permitted by running ulimit -n 128 in bash. For other shells, consult the Fine Manual.) The symptom, before I raised the limit, was Document contains no data intermittently when accessing services via a web browser, together with java.io.FileNotFoundException: Too many open files errors in the freenet log file. (The last was a dead giveaway as to where the problem lay. ;-) ) Developers: how many open file descriptors does a running Freenet node use? (Does the Java VM make a difference?)

[freenet-support] Configuration file changes
I'm sorry to butt into the fascinating meta-discussion you've been having about mailing list etiquette[0], but for those of us who are actually trying to use Freenet, I have something important to say. Recently, the CVS version of Freenet has made major changes which will require many of us to rewrite parts of our configuration files (freenet.conf and/or freenet.ini). If you've updated recently and found that you can't connect to your fproxy port, here's why. The fproxy and nodeinfo services no longer exist. They have both been merged into, and replaced by, a service called mainport. You'll need to go into your freenet.conf (or freenet.ini) file and remove all of the fproxy.* and nodeinfo.* lines (or at least comment them out) and replace them with appropriate mainport.* lines. For example: mainport.port= mainport.bindAddress=* mainport.allowedHosts=127.0.0.1,192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2 Once again: if you've been accessing your node's fproxy port from across a LAN, it *WILL STOP WORKING* when you update to a sufficiently recent node snapshot, unless you *CHANGE* your configuration file. (Apparently the developers felt they had to change the service name in order to guarantee the least possible amount of backward compatibility.) Also, if your web browser has cached the old http://NODEADDRESS:/ page which was a redirect to http://NODEADDRESS:8890/ then you may have to clear your browser's cache (or restart it) to make it stop trying to follow a redirect that no longer works.

OK, at some point I need to sit down and rewrite HUGE sections of the Wiki FAQ. People are coming into Freenet with some preconceived notions that are simply not in line with reality. Freenet is NOT a peer-to-peer file sharing application. Freenet does not work like Gnutella. You do not search for files in Freenet. You do not share whole directories full of files in Freenet. You must explicitly publish (insert) each file you wish to share. In particular, you DO NOT tell Freenet to create its data store in an existing directory full of files! It will delete them. (This will be fixed soon. Nobody anticipated that people would actually do this!) When you do insert a file, it has a KEY which is generally not going to be human-readable. (Unless you use KSK keys, but those are not secure.) The only way to retrieve that file is to know its key. Therefore the person who inserts a file has to advertise its key somehow. The Wiki FAQ is at http://freenet.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?FAQ. This is not on freenetproject.org. This is not LINKED from freenetproject.org. None of the documentation on freenetproject.org is up to date. None of the information on freenetproject.org is useful to new users. The Wiki FAQ isn't fully accurate or up to date either, but it's closer. (I apologize if this seems condescending. I'm writing it not only for you but for all the other people who seem to be laboring under false assumptions.) == Now, on to your specific issues: If you can't connect to TFE, you should get an error message -- usually either Route Not Found or Data Not Found. We also need to know whether the error occurs immediately, or after a wait of several seconds/minutes. If your request is bombing with RNF immediately after clicking the link, you have a bad build of Freenet -- update it. If your request is failing consistently with RNF, but it takes a while to do so, then your node's trying to contact other nodes but isn't having much luck. You might need to try someone else's seednodes.ref file, or check your node configuration firewall settings. Also visit the Node Reference Status Page (web interface http://127.0.0.1:/ - Node Status Interface - Node Reference Status). If you don't have a Node Status Interface link, then you're running Freenet 0.5 (not 0.5.0.x) and you should update. If your request is failing consistently with DNF, then either the whole Freenet network is unhealthy (which has been the case this week, with all the new nodes coming online), or the key you're looking for simply isn't available. Try a higher HTL or try another key or try again later. Also, whenever you make a support request, please give as much detail as possible about your environment: the exact version of your operating system, the exact version of your Java virtual machine, which Freenet build you're running, etc. In some cases it may also be helpful to include parts of your freenet.ini (or freenet.conf) file, or your freenet.log file. -- Greg Wooledge | Truth belongs to everybody.

But it definitely seems to help over the default queueing. Here's my pitiful understanding of what it's doing: First, tbrconfig sets up a throttle on the tun0 interface (which is my PPPoE interface). My upload is capped at 256 kbps, but the physical ethernet interface can happily spit out 100 Mbps. If the kernel doesn't know any better, it will think tun0 can go 100 Mbps. So I need to tell the kernel to slow tun0 to 256k, or nothing else will have any effect. (The ALTQ docs explain this better than I can.) Then I tell altqd that tun0 has 256k of outgoing bandwidth, and to use it as follows: * The default class is allowed to use 95% of outgoing bandwidth, period. * The gift_class, which is a child of default, can use 50% of outgoing bandwidth, but it can borrow from its siblings if they're not using their share. gift_class is defined as TCP port 1257 (my giFT node). * The web_class, which is also a child of default, can use 40% of outgoing bandwidth, and can borrow from its siblings. web_class is defined as TCP port 8080 (my second Apache instance, which has not been running lately because I'm trying to give Freenet some bandwidth). You'll note that I don't define Freenet here. That's because compared to giFT and Apache, Freenet is friendly. When I start that Apache instance, people suck my Oggs and MP3s like there's no music stores in the whole world. Apache alone will slam my outgoing bandwidth usage to 100% and keep it there forever. The reason I reserve 5% of outgoing bandwidth is because ADSL is half duplex. If 100% of outgoing bandwidth is used, then I can't download anything -- packets can't come in. Also remember that any TCP/IP connection requires two-way communications. TCP needs to send acknowledgement packets every so often to keep things running. -- Greg Wooledge | Truth belongs to everybody.

Re: [freenet-support] idea for wininstaller
Zlatin Balevsky ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: since Fred still takes up to 20 or 30 seconds to load on slower machine, You have some really WEIRD notions of what constitutes a slower machine. If your node only takes 20 seconds to start up, you've got a pretty fast machine, or a very small data store. but the tray utility appears almost instantly, it would be neat not to display the red rabbit while the node is loading but the red rabbit with the grean arrow on it. Also a text tip freenet is loading, please wait... would prevent ultra-newbies to immediately try and click on it. These are good suggestions. But the problem is that the freenet.log never actually says WHEN the node is ready. It says Starting interfaces but even then the interfaces aren't actually startED. They're just startING. The node would have to say All interfaces are now started. Node is ready. or something similar in order for this to be really useful. And I'm not even sure that's possible (you'd have to ask someone who speaks Java). In my experience, I'll often get connection refused on port for several seconds after Starting interfaces appears in the log.

[freenet-support] shrinking list of node refs
When I checked my node reference status screen this morning (on the Linux/SunJava node), I saw that my list of refs was down to: Number of node references: 15 Contacted node references: 13 Backed off node references: 1 Total Trials: 10128 Total Successes: 3882 It was in the upper 30s last night when the node had been running for only a couple hours. My OpenBSD/Kaffe node has a much healthier list: Number of node references: 49 Contacted node references: 46 Backed off node references: 7 Total Trials: 14291 Total Successes: 6423 And it's been running for the same length of time, give or take a few minutes. (In fact, that list is SO healthy that I think I'm going to save it!) It seems to me that there is some sort of random factor here -- a node that has a bit of bad luck reaching its peers will go into a downward spiral in which it can't reach other nodes, so it deletes references to them, so it has fewer references from which to choose, so it can't reach other nodes, But a node that has a bit better luck in reaching its brethren will prosper. I've observed this before during the 0.4 days. Of course this isn't a rigorous scientific experiment. These two nodes are *not* configured identically (and shouldn't be, because they're running on very different hardware -- the clock speed alone is more than three times as high on the OpenBSD box). And I haven't attempted to repeat this experiment. They're both running the same build, though - CVS branch rel-0-5-1 built last night (2002-10-31) at 18:26 US/Eastern. -- Greg Wooledge | Truth belongs to everybody.
