This is technically incorrect; Freenet can store files up to approximately 1% of the size of the data store. A default 256 MB data store can only store files up to 2 megs. My 28 GB data store can store much larger ones. (All of the popular insertion tools will split large files automatically, but nothing prevents an "attacker" from inserting a very large file as a monolithic CHK.) However, one of the things Matthew's been working on lately is a way to limit the size of a key that a node (or fproxy?) will request. I think this has the potential to overcome the "abuse" described above. -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody." [EMAIL PROTECTED] | - The Red Hot Chili Peppers http://wooledge.org/~greg/ |
