[freenet-support] Node name isn't defined.

2009-06-16 Thread CyberLeo
Hi!

Since I started this instance of freenet, mid 2007, I've repeatedly
received an alert 'Your node name isn't defined.'. Despite deciding that
the nickname provided is suitable and clicking 'apply', the alert comes
back every time the node restarts. Is there some regular expression it
uses to determine if the nickname is of the autogenerated kind, or is it
just not remembering that I chose that nickname?

Thanks.

Hi,
reading this, I wonder if it is not a question of the answer not 
registering properly... I have the same sort of experience when,
after having been asked to enter my external IP from the moment (to 
connect) and having entered it + saved it, just opening this
window again, few seconds later or half an hour later, I would be asked 
the same question.

(iMac-Intel Leopard, but from the Windows xp pro installed on it)

Yes. Auto-generated node names start with Node id|. They are not very helpful 
for the intended purpose of a node name which is to help a friend to whom you 
are connected to identify that a particular connection belongs to you and not 
some other friend. Names are supposed to be, well, names! My node is called 
Toad/Dark, for example. The name is *only* visible to Friends, i.e. people you 
have manually exchanged noderefs with, people you know (whether or not you 
trust them), people you've talked to.
