[freenet-chat] Q: transient nodes and freesite insertions
Hi, I've got a cron job which, once a day: 1. starts a transient freenet node 2. lets the node 'settle' for 60 seconds 3. does a round of freesite insertions 4. sits for another 60 seconds 5. shuts down the node Given that the node has at least a couple of good connections to peers, is this a safe setup? In other words, will the transience of the node impact on the ability of others to reach the inserted freesites? If so, then is there an amount of time I should leave the node running after the freesite inserts which will mitigate such impacts? Thanks in advance for your replies Cheers David ___ chat mailing list chat@freenetproject.org Archived: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.general Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/chat Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem is that the bootstraping time might depend on your peer's locations : I don't think that 60 secs is enough to 1) connect to everyone 2) swap your location. On the other hand, as you're only inserting, it's not that important...

Thanks in advance for your replies This should work fine - even if your peer doesn't have time to acquire a desirable location (and it probably won't in 60 seconds), the nodes it talks to probably will, so inserts should get routed correctly.
