Data that's inserted into Freenet does not "kill itself".  In fact,
there is no way to delete anything from Freenet.  (It might expire
through neglect, but this cannot be assured.)

If you can get Freenet working, go to this key:

SSK@qe3ZRJg1Nv1XErADrz7ZYjhDidUPAgM/nubile/10//

It is the best all-around introduction to publishing "freesites" in
Freenet.

I'm rather new myself, but after doing some research about this myeslf i 
think i can answere you.  here's the way the keys break down:

CHK - this is unique to one specific file, every file in freenet has one 
of these, they never change and only go away if they get purged from all 
the caches do to lack of requests for them.

SSK - this is unique to a _person_ or anonymous identity.  you use these 
as your sort of top level domain in the freenet.  you can only write to 
or update a SSK if you have the private key.  commonly SSK derefernce to 
a a CHK, so if you want to update your site, what you are really doing 
is just inserting the newer version of the site (which gets all new 
CHK's) and then updating your SSK to point to those new files.  So the 
old files still exist, and there is nothign to be done about that, but 
generally you should publish the SSK to your site and you should be fine.

hope that helps, and that i'm accurate :)

[freenet-chat] another newbie question

2002-07-11 Thread Thad Eckard

I am assuming that pages in Freenet cannot change, since the pages that 
people access in Freenet are actually copies located on the nearest node, 
rather than the original page. What do page designers do if they want to 
make a page part of Freenet, but that page is something that gets updated 
often? Is there some way to make all copies of a page kill themselves at a 
certain time, so that anyone who accesses the page will occassionally get a 
fresh copy from an updated page?
