[freenet-support] Problem with Windows (or perhaps Microsoft)
Since you announced the last stable release I have been unable to download a new release. Background: For about a month I have gotten sporadic replacement of URLs by Internet Explorer by the following: http://www.marsfind.com/ufts.php?ver=100uid=00063dc614af4a85aefef19c015d5f3 dstatus=-2146697211 query=http%3A%2F%2Fstart.earthlink.net%2F As of the last week it is always replaced when trying to use the I.E. explorer. I believe it is a problem that I.E. cannot resolve alphabetic addresses. A similar event happened on another machine in May 2001 using Windows and I was never able to resolve the problem (that is, that machine even with several replacements of different versions of Window will not access the Internet). I can use Mozilla as a browser, but having it active does not permit download of freenet package. Any suggestions of something to try? Although I've used Linux, I'm not prepared to really learn to use Linux as a compiler. And I've never used it for Internet service. The Capture3 is a sample of the error message given on attempt at download. attachment: Capture3.gif___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support

Still, it took me several tries before I found that the % was a comment marker AND to discover which of those I needed to remove to avoid being a transient node. (And that must be done each and every time that one downloads a new version.) It seems that it is prefered we run non-transient, but the default is nicely set up to send us to transient. The failure on THE has been the case for several weeks. Item two on the browsing page is the only one reliable for the last week or two. What is item two? Well, Help, the way they are numbered in the log is rather unconventional, but I was thinking of two and coming after one. Thus, second down on the list where Freedom (if the thumbnail appears) is one, as first in a conventionally numbered list. Hope this helps to clarify. Thanks.

RE: [freenet-support] Minor installer warts
This puzzles me. The win installer has worked without a hitch (except to ask you to shut down freenet) as long as I've used it. The only difference I've seen recently is twice (not always) reporting a failure to complete a download (check sum error?) and ask if a retry was desired. That I find effective if the transmission was in error, because it does not demand that I wait around for a second try NOW just in case one happens to want to do something else for the next quarter hour (obviously I don't have a T1 connection). [Original Message] From: Paul Derbyshire [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 1/17/2004 9:15:43 AM Subject: [freenet-support] Minor installer warts Got around to updating to 5061. Installer wart is as follows: when it reaches its own executable it pops up something I thought had gone the way of the dodo (and MS-DOS): abort, retry, ignore. Abort is rather drastic, and retry can't possibly work, so you have to ignore. The installer should automatically skip itself. This is easily worked around but could confuse some new users and shows lack of polish. Normally installer problems are automatically serious as the lack of polish is present from the user's first impression with the software, but in this case it only will occur the 2nd and subsequent times the installer is run. :) This therefore only rates a 1 on the 1 to 5 Sanjay-Tarantino scale of bug severity (bugs that bring down the host operating system rating a 5, of course). Or does it? If the installer itself needs updating there could be a problem. To make the installer updatable, the installer needs to chain. The algorithm in widest use is for the installer to have two stages: the first fetches the second from a fixed location, then launches this and quits. The second installs everything else including a fresh version of the first if necessary. Since the first has quit, the second can overwrite it. When the first overwrites the second it succeeds since the second hasn't run yet. :) On a related note, the installer seems unable to automate shutting down the node so it can overwrite with new files, even though it has no problem starting it back up again after. Requiring user intervention at this stage seems unnecessary and is another potential source of error that can easily be eliminated. Many web-updatable apps I've used take already-running instances in stride, and more than a few even update themselves automatically or with only a there's a newer version available. Download and install? Yes, Cancel dialog. My current operating system is one of them. :) This doesn't really rate as a bug at all, but it is one more rough edge in the installer that can be smoothed over. (Again, it won't show up the very first time you run the web updater, so it doesn't give a bad first impression, reducing its already-cosmetic priority.) ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support

We also urgently need reliable permanent stable branch nodes to read seednodes from.

RE: [freenet-support] Freenet is fading away...
Freenet is a lot more complicate in its necessary methods to get to it's goal than writing a card game or even an editor,... and the first editions of those took many months of work and many failures. Encrypting and decrypting require a considerable amount of resources, thus time, and finding an adequate method to attain adequate speed certainly has and likely will yet require much effort. The problem of loss of data content is almost certainly a result of discouragement by many that have given up, and are no longer trying to retrieve or simply are not being successful, but a working network is necessary for testing this type of operation. Because of my lack of understanding, I've yet to feel competent to insert material, but I will continue running nearly 7/24 and continue to try to retrieve at least for an hour or two daily to help the system going so development can continue. Heck, I'm getting pretty old for this, but I'm optimistic: I hope to live long enough to see the results which are important to freedom of _expression_ for the next generation as it has been for the last several (at least to some degree and in some parts of the world).

Re: [freenet-support] help
He may be having trouble giving you log if he is trying from the rabbit. At least on my system the display of log from rabbit does little more than that. I've mentioned it several times, but either no one believe me or the problem remains uncomprehended or unimportant. When I try to display log from Rabbit Menu I get display. Mark is possible, but only within the given page. One can move the segment and then mark in another section. A somewhat deceptive process if one need to pass along more than one page of the log. The Button at the bottom of the window that shows the log file (end of, if box checked) does nothing with the marked contents. One can use ctrl-c to copy, then open an editor to generate a file and then use ctrl-v to put the marked material into that file, or one can open a email window after using the mark and ctrl-c and put a segment into the mail message. This all seems very primitive, but either the Rabbit-display log works for everyone but me or fixing what looks like a useful method for selecting and forewarding log information is considered one of those user friendly functions that does help get freenet working. One can go to the directory when freenet is installed and open that file to copy some contents, or send freenet.log as an attachement, or perhaps zip that file and send the zip copy on. For novices, that may not be the easiest (search does not work on my 2K opsys unless I am Administrator, which might be a problem to others using 2K Win) if one does not know where freenet was installed. The system works pretty good for gurus, but not for many of the remainder.

Transient means that computers on the internet cannot connect to your computer. This is because your firewall is not letting them! So to fix this you will need to make sure your firewall allows traffic to your freenet port. If you're not running a firewall, or firewall software, or you're connected directly to the internet through a modem, or your network or LAN doesn't have a firewall, or gateway, or NAT or anything like that, then it should work. Otherwise whatever is stopping freenet receiving incoming connections will need to be reconfigured. Obviously external hardware devices like these cannot be reconfigured by the Freenet software! You'll need to configure them yourself. I don't know. I've heard really great things about Freenet project, but I'm getting kinda skeptical. It's great, honest I've let frenet runn for days and it still brings nothing up...it either looks for a page for ever or I get the error that I sent you earlier. it seems that ther are a hell of a lot of extra configureations just to gert this thing to work.

And do recall that most of the user aids are about as useful on Linux as the instructions on Microsoft's own operating system. Third party software in the MS world does have pretty good user instructions and even some of the help systems are pretty good (wish I could say the same for the Gate's Help Files or even most Linux instructions that forgot the dictionary of jargon -- like most of the instructions on FreeNet). I'm not a particular lover of MS ware.

[freenet-support] DeeEnES help request
Need some help with the following instructions: (I have three registered numbers -- assuming they have not expired) I have unzipped DeeEnEs. I have executed DeeEnEs.exe and have icon in tray (had two because of update suggestion and doing so and running both, but one has disappeared). Get two Windows. Don't know what to put in fields of either. - How to get a superfast Node ! It can be done easily if you use the following settings: 1. First of all - your node has to be in 24/7 mode (not transient) transient is the number one performance killer, both for fast connecting and downloads with high rates If you are using frost, and getting low rates or nothing, your node is not transient or not correctly setup with 24/7. Change to 24/7 and your node will run several hundred percent better. To do it right: Click right the icon of freenet and select configure - normal settings Option 1 - static ip if you have a static ip-adress simply select Node will run 24/7 and add your ip in the field Node Adress - done! Option 2 - changing ip if you have a changing ip (every redial or...), you need a dynamic domainservice (free) to get your node runin smooth. You can select a domain (free) like mynode.dyndns.org and update your ip to this domain automatically. All the other nodes can find your node with the domain instead of the ip-adress. How it works: a) Select your wanted domain like mynode.dyndns.org at www.dyndns.org for free b) on the same site you find a little prog called DeeEnEs - download an install it * * I'm here. * Have right clicked icon in tray and have several options that I can display. * Seek more advise now. * It is running. * I think, anyway. * c) Fill in the information received from Dyndns in the Account-Feature from DeeEnEs d) Rightclick the Icon DeeEnEs and select Properties and enable Start automatically your pc can be found under your selected domain - now select in Freenet Node will run 24/7 and add your domain in the field Node Adress - done! 2. the Settings - for maximum speed if 24/7 is done, start optimizing your settings: Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select Normal Settings a) Node Data Store: use minimum 4000, greater is better (6000), 9000 for optimal performance if you are frost user ! Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select Advanced Settings b) Node Bandwidth: set all 3 values on 0 c) Performance Settings: set Init Req HTL on 10 Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select Serious Geeks Only d) Announcements: set Delay ms on 3 e) rtMaxNodes: set 80 f) rtMaxRefs: set 80 3. Autostart - let your node run !!! Routing tables are essential for good performance. They are updated while your node runs online. Even if it does not download anything, or it uploads anything. From time to time it contacts other nodes and receives new routing information. It is very important to get actual routing data. Put your Node in your Autostart, and let it run all the time !

Re: [freenet-support] It's installed...now what?
Perhaps it would help if someone that's been here for a long will would dust off some of those early theoretical discussions. And publish them again. They did explain the (then) future goal remarkably well, although developing the software has clearly been much more difficult than developing the concept. But, of course it has evolved a bit, just as did Loglan, an artificial language, that initially appeared to have the goal of providing a logical language in which all hidden implications were to be removed for the basic language elements and applied only as modifiers, thus not carrying the hidden meanings that so much of natural language carries--baggage to confuse those not speaking it as natives (but who usually detected the inconsistencies better than the natives). Ten years later hardly anyone remembered that stated goal. Every human effort soon develops a life of its own and usually develops into something not originally planned.

Re: [freenet-support] NodeConfig, missing .dll error
(Please ignore this unless it has some relevance to you.) Thank you for all the information. Since I've not yet been able to understand how or why .NET is significant to *us* I really was intending simply to make the point that one can have reason to dislike much that Microsoft has been doing, possibly just because they don't distribute enough information about their products to the purchaser without repeated purchase of addon products. Actually, I was pretty much a supporter of Microsoft, even during their court battle, until I started getting problems with their products because they were unable to keep their own products functioning, i.e., one cannot go back to the point of installation (apart from the now common requirement of formatting the hard drive) and have a working restart. Unfortunately the method of reformating to start over also means you doesn't have the previous edition to which you can apply the upgrade. Nor will one have all the fixes. And then one likely will find one is installing all the other software one has purchased since birth (and possibly in the correct sequence to accommodate various upgrades of .dll that are part of some operating system). The size of the repair package I downloaded for my Win2000 system was so large as to suggest it may have replaced my entire original operating system. And if I corruption of one critical file occurs I just may have an operating system that I'll never be able to restore (sure hope my backup doesn't fail to be readable). I continue to believe they should provide use with more complete (and easily understood information) regarding both the use of their products and how to avoid their failures that cannot be cured by reinstalling the product. Their choice of providing updating on line seems inevitably to leave us with products that are prone to decay with time. But perhaps that is a natural evolution of the concept of making merchandise that will fail the week after the guarantee or warrantee expires. But, again, thank you for all the useful information that Microsoft probably thinks I should not be allowed to have because I didn't buy each and every upgrade/new edition of their products.

[freenet-support] (no subject)
This is all guess work as an observer with little knowledge of the theory or practice of Freenet code. I'm not particularly surprised that files from freenet sites would turn up on one's computer. Unless the freenet code contained it's own browser this seems an almost certainty. I'm using a Windows 2K system with Earthlink.net access. The browser provided by the latter largely calls segments of regular Window browser for it's work. Windows is noted for putting convenience (so long as that is not a problem to MS) above security until someone with a very broad-band voice complains. But without freenet providing it's own "secure" browser, one would suspect that most of the other browsers would leave local tell-tales. Surely many have noticed that a second call to the same site (which has given up) will almost always load some of the graphics (and text even quicker)much faster the second time. This implies they are laying around ready to be accessed again by the browser. Recently I was hunting something and found that the search function of Windows is quite capable of pointing to items in the cache (even though it looks quite meaningless if one opens such a folder directly). And it appears that one can copy that file found by search into another location. I'm sure those who regularly try to extract material from confiscated (or even sold) disks know this. That is, it appears that Windows provides the code to break the packing, but that is expected since the browser (or other functions) need to examine items that have been downloaded to the local machine. And of course, if you have a browser that's not broken (as is my Windows currently) one can extract HTML source code (Netscape and Mozilla can do this just fine) so one too should be able to transfer graphic files from Internet folders even though they look cryptic. The cheap solution (not in time) might well be to keep an inventory of what is being downloaded by Freenet and then promptly delete those files as soon as the Browser has finished it's work, but does Freenet currently know the final name or location of these files before it sends them to the Browser? Does it have access to that information immediately after the Browser finishes? What happens if on closes the Browser without returning to Freenet GUI? --- Nicholas Sturm --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
[freenet-support] What is wrong with restarting freenet
Error message with any attempt to restart after stopping freenet: "Couldn't start the node,make sure FLaunch.ini has an entry javaw=pointing to javaw.exe oran entry Javaexec=pointing to a Java Runtime binary (jview.exe/java.exe)" C:\Program Files\Freenet0.4 contains FLaunch.ini Content of FLaunch.ini is: " [Freenet Launcher]# following the runtime binaries to be used for the Java classes# Javaexec/javaw should point to your Java Runtime binaries (jview.exe/java.exe and javaw.exe)javaexec=C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0\bin\java.exejavaw=C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0\bin\javaw.exe # Commands to be executed by Javafrequest=freenet.client.cli.Main getfinsert=freenet.client.cli.Main putfclient=freenet.client.cli.Mainfserve=freenet.node.Main# the wrapper can take only 8 char long names for now.

Can anyone explain what is wrong? I could reactivate freenet after a stop until i downloaded the C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.0\bin Now I can reactivate after stop only by going through the install, download freenet.jar and letting the installer restart freenet. Not a minor discouragement to attempting any significant exploration as I never have confidence of an identical copy of freenet.jar being active if I stop freenet for any reason. --- Nicholas Sturm --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
[freenet-support] How to unsubscribe
I would answer this if I could, but I've not used lists frequently in the last five years, and forget the procedure.Perhaps "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be successful.Perhaps the unsubscribe should be the content of such a message. [Original Message] From: John Foss [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 8/17/2002 3:53:29 PM Subject: Re: [freenet-support] What is wrong with restarting freenet I have been a freenet list member for quite a long time, but have never successfully connected to it! Frankly, the jargon is beyond me and I wish to unsubscribe - can you tell me what to do please?

[freenet-support] Any one have an idea
I waited what seemed like excessive time for "stash" to appear after the background became colorized. Finally tried playing around with Netscape commands. On right click i found there appeared to be a screen display "behind" the blank page. I clicked on STOP and the page became visible. I inspected the HTML code (View Source) and all looked quite normal. Anyone have any ideas why Netscape as the browser was going on to a second page with the same background, but never getting to a normal display point? Thanks. --- Nicholas Sturm --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
