While we're on the topic of IP detecting:

I've routed my Freenet node through a NAT
(masquerading), so I have an internal LAN address,
with an appropriate return port that gets routed back
to me. However, rather than defining it myself
whenever my IP changes, or running some kind of
dynamic DNS, applications like mIRC do a server-side
lookup. How difficult would it be to do the same for
Freenet? The node that I send a request to would
simply reply to the IP address from which the request
*appears* to be sent from, and all is well. I don't
see any greater spoofing danger than now (where it
appears I can set it to whatever I want). Obviously
not as a default setting, but as an option I think
it'd be nice.
