Yes, a darknet of peers located on the same LAN (for bandwidth
reasons). Can Freenet be configured to allow only pushing/pulling from
friends (and not from friends of friends). I understand that the
current Freenet paradigm is setup in such a way that a node cannot
tell if a friend was the origin of the data or if he is just caching
it so I am curious if such a setup is possible.

[freenet-support] Darknet Question .... and some other fundamental Qs

2008-08-02 Thread Benjamin Hecht
When using Darknet, are requests forwarded by friends that are not
friends of your node?

For example, if you are friends (via Darknet) with (person A) and
(person B). And (person B) is friends with (person C) via Darknet,
will a request from (person A) to (B) be forwarded to (C) if that
piece is unavailable at (B).

If it is, is it possible to disable this feature -- I guess in other
words, would changing maximum hops to 1 (if possible) prevent
searching "Friends of Friends" searching/downloading/pushing, etc.?

How does the untrusted peers model work in this context. (Friend to
friend, etc.)

Thanks,

BJH
