Re: [freenet-support] SYNs and SMURFs
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Roger Hayter wrote: In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes For a long time I've received what looks like SYN floods and SMURF attacks to my port associated with Freenet. I've assumed that it's a fault of my firewall or PC, but what's weird is that the port of the offending IP increments. I thought that the port that Freenet uses was fixed being that it was defined in the .conf file. Excuse my display of ignorance, but could someone please explain why the far ends port would need to change? Example Time: 05/31/2004, 04:21:52 Message: Smurf Source: 133.205.255.225, 1905 Time: 05/31/2004, 04:25:38 Message: Smurf Source: 133.205.255.225, 2600 Etc. Most likely this is an attempt by a Freenet node on 133.205.255.225 to connect to your Freenet external port, which is fixed, but is being prevented by your firewall. It tries again and chooses the next available source port. It has to use a new source port so it can tell the difference between the present connection and previous ones, should a packet return. The return packet will be from your Freenet fixed port, and to the arbitrary source port on the remote machine, 133.205.255.225. This is normal. Can you tell your firewall to ignore connections to your Freenet port? I think it may well be identifying Freenet packets as smurf attacks - what does anyone else think? If this is from a SOHO broadband router - especially a D-Link router, they should likely be disregarded, as the DoS detection in there doesn't usually work and it KNOWN to be broken in D-Link's firmware. There was a version of Freenet, 5023 IIRC, that accidently DID launch a sort of syn flood as it would try to reconnect relentlessly. In general, most SOHO router simply cannot handle the kind of traffic Freenet generates, and it confuses it with a DoS attack. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFAu7YxhctESbvQ8ZwRAlhbAJ9Xn5orQIPwNhtdaONP5Ha7vHuNnACfSODp 2eiFYi1hJm8YNcVQSuVA+5o= =okvI -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

It may try for a few more seconds or minutes instead of returning the RNF nearly immediately (and very often). Putting that retry to the user's side (being it the browser or a FCP app) is no good idea IMHO. Maybe so. But maybe the problem is more fundamental. I suspect this is the case. The RNF is coming back much too quickly for the network to have been searched to the limit, unless everyone running FN has miraculously converted to a T3. As an experiment, I cut and pasted some not-found keys into FUQID.

Re: [freenet-support] need a program to crawl links in freenet
Nicholas Sturm wrote: Please provide reference to a good glossary. 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. 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. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
