Subject: freenet on mac os x

I saw a post in the archives for April from someone who wanted to run 
freenet on os x.

The good news is that it builds as is (as far as I can recall).  It runs 
fine too, except one thing...

...the annoying bad news.  The typical modem user will have a problem 
using fproxy.  I've posted a fix on the Wiki at:
   http://freenet.netunify.com/51

Basically, connections to the fproxy servlet are rejected.

I get the impression that the packets are addressed with the computer's 
assigned IP address rather than localhost.  It may just require adding a 
new net to the routing tables or something, but I didn't really feel 
like figuring that out.  The posted script just ferrets out this number, 
and then rewrites the config file.  It's a cheap hack.

Other good news.  I finally have some time to work on freenet + imc 
stuff again.  Right now, I'm playing with xml-rpc on php to get 
comfortable with it.  I'll communicate with freenet this way.  Then, 
I'll probably do a proof of concept for the imc.  Somewhere in between, 
I'll have to figure out how to mangle the URLs, manage the keys 
automatically, and other stuff.  A PHP publishing lib will probably come 
out of this.

IMC, and whatever these days.
