I still can't set the node to transient from within the configure panel though. I switch to the geek page, check the box the says 'enable settings on normal page' or whatever, return to the main tab, and the transient box is still greyed out. If I run as a full node (non-transient), would it 'hurt' the network that I am only connected a few hours a day on a slow connection? Even though I have doannounce set to false, my log file is filled with "request rejected, node is transient' messages. Is this normal? After over a week of trying, I still haven't gotten much of any real content. I can get to DFI and a few of the front pages from there, but nothing further. I do have Frost and have been running it. I can't help but think I have something set wrong. Would posting the log file help? _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
