that makes some sense.... at the expense of (since muxing not so) valuable connection slots, system resources, etc... the connection backoff from Trevor Smith might be useful for this kind of stuff also, maybe a additional fnp answer at connection time could be designed: "never contact me again" which will make out node remove the node which answers us this from the rt, so we won't retry the node as it's permanently unusable _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support
