Hello! I am not able to connect to freenet for some reason. I am using Freenet 0.5.0.4 and "J2SETM v 1.4.1_01", the most recent version of Java from Sun. Several times I tried deleting the freenet directory and starting from scratch by extracting it from a tarball after various experiments in getting it to work. I have downloaded a seednodes.ref file from http://wooledge.org/~greg/seednodes.ref to no avail (I believe he is using version .4). Here is the error:
Network Error Couldn't retrieve key: CHK%40hdXaxkwZ9rA8-SidT0AN-bniQlgPAwI%2cXdCDmBuGsd-ulqbLnZ8v%7ew Hops To Live: 15 Error: Route not Found Attempts were made to contact 5 nodes. 4 were totally unreachable. 0 restarted. 1 cleanly rejected. Route Not Found messages mean that your node, or the rest of the network, didn't find the data or enough nodes to send the request to. You should retry, with the same Hops-To-Live; if it persists, there may be a problem (check that your internet connection is working). Try reseeding your node, and if that doesn't work, contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... and sometimes: Network Error Couldn't retrieve key: CHK%40hdXaxkwZ9rA8-SidT0AN-bniQlgPAwI%2cXdCDmBuGsd-ulqbLnZ8v%7ew Hops To Live: 15 Error: Route not Found Attempts were made to contact 0 nodes. 0 were totally unreachable. 0 restarted. 0 cleanly rejected. The request couldn't even make it off of your node. Try again, perhaps with the GPL to help your node learn about others. The publicly available seed nodes have been very busy lately. If possible try to get a friend to give you a reference to their node instead.

Try reseeding your node, and if that doesn't work, contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...hmm. The request couldn't make it off my node? All of the Freenet network links give these errors. The numbers for "totally unreachable" and "cleanly rejected" always vary. I am running on RedHat Linux 7.3, attached by cablemodem, protected by firewall. I have opened the "listenPort" (55555) on my firewall and verified it by running "nmap -P0 -p 55555 MyIPAddress" from a remote system. nmap reports that there is an unknown service available on the port. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should do or what I can try? Here is are the contents of my freenet.conf file: [Freenet node] # Freenet configuration file # Note that all properties may be overridden from the command line, # so for example, java freenet.node.Main --listenPort 10000 will cause # the setting in this file to be ignored # Lines that start with "%" are settings that have been unchanged from # default, and that are thus ignored by the node (so they don't linger # when we want to change the default settings). If you change these # settings you should remove the "%". # This file was automatically generated by Freenet.scripts.Setup (at Nov 2, 2002 6:52:06 PM) # The IP address of this node as seen by the public internet.

Defaults to # <storePath>/stats if left blank. %diagnosticsPath=stats # Datastore implementation. Put "native" (without the quotes) if you want the new native filesystem datastore, which stores the files in a directory, "monolithic" if you want the old single-file datastore. The latter option periodically corrupts itself, forcing you to remove it and start again, the former probably has other bugs. If you use native, make sure your datastore is at least 2400kB. Put "freenet" to autodetect, creating a native store if there is neither a file nor a directory, and put "convert" to convert from a monolithic to a native store. Note that convert uses lots of disk space while doing the conversion (approximately twice the datastore size), and the resulting store may be (temporarily) slightly larger than the old one due to block size mismatch (this will be fixed as soon as the node tries to add a file to the store). %storeType=freenet # The path to the file containing the node's private key, DSA group, # cipher key, etc. Defaults to node_<port> in the current directory. %nodeFile= # The path to the single directory # containing the data store.
