Ok, i'm a bit lost as to what your problem is, so i'll run through the web of trust idea, hopefully something here will help you. You can trust an identity by setting that identity's trust to something relatively high, and then you will see that identity's messages. You can trust the identity's trust list, then you will automatically trust that the identity will mark other identities correctly. Go to the following page: http://localhost:8080/peertrust.htm Search for Volodya, you should find the identity like this "VolodyA! V Anarhist at sD-X.." that is mine. You can click on the name and see who trusts me (that your fms knows of) and who i trust. Let's say you are satisfied that i am not an evil person and do not mark somebody low because i don't like them nor do i mark spammers high. You can set my trust list trust to something high (numbers go from 0 (min) to 100 (max)). Now i don't really maintain my identity's trust list trust that much so i wouldn't suggest just trusting me. Some identities that i would recommend that you set high trust list trust (on http://localhost:8080/peertrust.htm page) are: Luke771 at mdXK Liberty or Death at QZlY nAxaLiTe at 4KbK bback at vH4r You do that by searching for their names, and then typing the number in the column that says 'Local trust list trust' (and possibly comment) and pressing 'Update Trust'. After you will start seeing messages appear, you probably should move asking questions to FMS, more people will help you there. (fms board is good for those questions). - Volodya -- http://freedom.libsyn.com/ Echo of Freedom, Radical Podcast http://eng.anarchopedia.org/ Anarchopedia, A Free Knowledge Portal http://freenetproject.org/ The Free Network project "None of us are free until all of us are free." ~ Mihail Bakunin
