My understanding of this situation (and this comes from scipient, so...) is that doing a --resetDS doesn't wipe the node's identity, so there's no problem bringing the node right up. My experience is that others are able to successfully contact my node after I --resetDS, so this isn't the problem. If you delete the .freenet directory or delete the store some more destructive way, then you do need to update your node. on a different note, there's some seed nodes that my node has never successfully contacted: tcp/heretic108.cjb.net:40000 tcp/64.0.135.217:18402 tcp/jaymz.artificial-stupidity.net:62813 tcp/216.174.195.192:3655 tcp/216.185.203.194:35333 tcp/66.38.8.41:14791 tcp/24.222.144.23:9504 tcp/63.149.19.60:7703 tcp/24.183.136.171:15119 tcp/131.246.251.100:54427 tcp/24.91.4.199:10764 tcp/209.142.155.49:33439 tcp/hawk.freenetproject.org:8834 tcp/208.179.100.62:27773 tcp/216.31.179.130:19115 Yes, that's 15 out of the 21 seed references that my node has *never* been able to contact. I understand a lot more why people complain about the seeding process being so bad. Thelema -- E-mail: thelema314 at bigfoot.com If you love something, set it free.
