Do I have something misconfigured somehow? It means you're running a JVM that doesn't include a SHA-256 provider. The presence of libgcj makes me think you're using a Free Software one like gij or Kaffe, which is standard e.g. on Ubuntu. Your options are basically to install Sun Java (proprietary but faster, and possibly more compatible) or follow these instructions to work around it using GNU Crypto : http://wiki.freenetproject.org/Freenet0Point7withFreeVm > Thanks! > > Evan Bob

Yes, I'm quite sure it worked (I used it ;) ) I have both Sun's JDK 1.5.0_06 installed, and some version of gcj. I seem to have path issues -- it was started with the correct path the first time, but not the second, so originially it was using Sun's java but was now trying to use gcj. Thanks! Evan
