[freenet-support] Assistance
Hello, all, I would like to request some assistance. I am a writer working on a book on cyber-security. This led me to Freenet and the concept of a Darknet. My audience is the typical Windows user - not an idiot, but no special technical training. Just a typical user, in other words. In order for me to write about Freenet and help other users get started with it, I need to understand it thoroughly myself. I am a Windows tech myself - MCSE and A+ certifications, and many years in a support job. As of right now, I am connected to Freenet - I only have one acquaintance also using it, so I am still using it on low security settings and connecting to everyone I can. I can browse sites, no problem at all, and I'm fascinated. This reminds me of the very, very early Internet - a definite "outlaw" feel to it. I want to add a flog of my own, but the Freenet fork of Thingamablog is locking up on me. I think I'm going to have to locally publish a blog site and then upload it using jSite or similar. Freemail appears to be working for me, but I can't receive messages, either to my long "real" address, or to the shorter address I created. Deleting messages is spotty. It works sometimes, and sometimes not. My friend also on Freenet does not receive the messages I send. Yet Freemail is installed as a plugin, and there does not appear to be a problem. I received all the initial welcome stuff. I also have FMS installed and running, but I can't seem to announce my identity. It's been several days, and I have yet to receive a single captcha to complete. I've verified that FMS is running. I've also done all the typical support stuff - disabling firewall etc. to see if that is blocking me. All ports are forwarded without any apparent problems at my router. If someone here is willing to give me some one on one assistance, we can take it off list if necessary. We can use GPG to encrypt messages if that makes you more comfortable, or even get on the telephone if you prefer. My wide open address is kate9954 (at) gmail (dot) com, and my public key is published at most of the servers.

[freenet-support] assistance
Congrats on the success of this project. I am at a loss to get this system to work. I have downloaded all the softwhere, and have no trouble getting to the freenet gateway. My problem is retrieving information. I cannot access a list of the files that are available to me. All I get on the gateway is a filename request. How do I know what the filename is if I don't know what is available? In the search field I put "music" and got nothing. Sorry! I'm a newbie and could use a little help. Thanks! ___ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

I write a freesite that is specifically aimed at new users, the idea is to have a one-site Freenet resource where newbies can find out what Freenet can do and how to do it (basic tutorials). It's a long way from completed but it does include some usable info. It's called FAFS - the Freenet Applications FreeSites and it's linked in the FProxy default bookmarks. There you should find most of the basic info and figure out where to go to get more detailed info. > Freemail appears to be working for me, but I can't receive messages, > either to my long "real" address, or to the shorter address I created. > Freemail is horribly buggy.

It's > been several days, and I have yet to receive a single captcha to > complete. If I was still using FMS, I would bootstrap your ID adding each other as peers manually. But I'm not using FMS and neither are ... pretty much anyone. FMS was a proof of concept for the WoT (web of trust) which IMHO failed miserably at the 'jerk test' (people abuse the WoT to try and censor 'immoral' users, instead of using it for what it's designed to do). In addition, FMS was never actually subjected to flood attacks trying to DoS it, so we dont 'really' know if the WoT would actually do the job that it's supposed to do. However, it seems that ATM there isnt any feasible alternative to WoT, so it's been decided to use WoT for the next official Freenet messaging system, which is called Freetalk and will be bundled with Freenet 0.8 when it's released in a few months. You can run Freetalk loading the Freetalk and WoT plugins manually (downloads.freenetproject.org/alpha/plugins/ ...something) Anyhow, see FAFS for more info about FMS (if you really want to use that), Freetalk, and Frost <=try this Short version: Basically, all I've said is to have a look at FAFS for basic info about Freenet, don;t run FMS (no-one uses it anyway) but stick to Frost and possibly test Freetalk, and Freemail is buggy. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

Re: [freenet-support] Assistance
Thanks so much to Luke and others for your response! I am attempting to implement Frost as I type this, and I got a good laugh over "sending IP address to the NSA." I tried Freetalk as well, with the same result as FMS. No captchas downloaded no matter what I did. As you can tell by the delay in my answering your message, I tried it for a couple of days. I think it is safe to say that no captchas were *going* to download, which concerns me. There is evidently something in my configuration that is preventing me from using Web of Trust, although I can't figure out what it is. I have forwarded ports 11231, 57881, 9481 through my router and opened them through my firewall (Zone Alarm Pro) as well. I have confirmed that Windows Firewall is *not* running. I have also rebooted several times. If there is something else I should check, I would appreciate learning about it. My Windows version is XP Pro, latest updates and service packs. I've just minimized this message and noticed that Frost is hung at about 2/3 in its starting sequence. I am now going to go drink a large cup of hemlock. A few moments later, it wants me to check my node is running - but it says it will start anyway. Node is definitely running. I have confirmed that the service is running, and through the web interface, I can see that I am connected to one friend and 11 strangers. Now Frost is using about 55 percent of my CPU and doing nothing that I can see, but the splash screen has finally gone away. An hour later - my HD is being accessed like crazy, but still no sign of any application. I'm clearly going to have to reboot. Terribly, terribly frustrating. And the guy that maintains the active links page wants new sites announced in FMS, so even if I do get Frost working, somehow I still have to get Web of Trust stuff working also. I'm about to throw up my hands and give up. Not worth it. Damned shame, too - I'd already created a flog and an active link - needed only to write first blog entry and get it up there. Gr. Please - any help greatly appreciated.

Naughty, naughty, Dennis! It's not nice to f**k with Mother Nature, lol. Believe it or not, I reinstalled FMS - if at first, you don't succeed, start over at the beginning, lol. Guess what?

It's still used by a few people but from what my node picks up there are significantly more active conversations on Frost, unfortunately developers have stopped reading all the bug reports there *cough*. The problem seems to be that something has stopped Frost connecting to your node. Is your node running on the same machine? If so then you did *not* need to forward 9481 port on the router, but you might have needed to open it on Zone Alarm anyhow (i'm not sure). Now, Zone Alarm also keeps track of what applications try to access the network, Frost needs to be one of them, even though it only accesses the node (and i believe you can specify that) it needs to have that access, otherwise that might be causing the problem. Can you check that and get back to me on the list? - Volodya P.S. You don't want to post the Node ports on the open list, because this way others will be able to know that it's you who has connected to them. Of course if it doesn't matter, then it's ok, but it creates an atmosphere where others may slip and post that info also. - -- http://freedom.libsyn.com/ Echo of Freedom, Radical Podcast http://eng.anarchopedia.org/ Anarchopedia, A Free Knowledge Portal http://www.freedomporn.org/ Freedom Porn, anarchist and activist smut "None of us are free until all of us are free."~ Mihail Bakunin -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkpI+jUACgkQuWy2EFICg+0U1gCdEz5LJZPkHAQIS623pQKs/PTi whwAnRqc8AuNY+a/sJe8ki4ps06sRQn6 =g8JZ -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

Re: [freenet-support] Assistance
Thanks for your suggestions, Volodya. No, my node is definitely on the same machine where I am trying to run Frost. I'm on a home network, but my other half is no computer whiz, and I am the only one experimenting with Freenet as yet. He will be my test case once I get comfortable with this stuff, and before I try to write any book chapters about Freenet. If he can do it, any Windows user can, lol. I've checked the ZA programs listing and Frost is not listed as such - merely as an instance of Java. I've given Java more access than I am completely comfortable with, but Frost still cannot connect to my node at all. I've tried turning ZA and Avast off completely, but it still does not work. The Web of Trust plugin is not working either (for Freetalk). Just FMS, and only since I reinstalled it a little while ago. I'm not successfully announced yet, of course, but a few captchas are trickling in and I can read some messages. I'm heartened by tentative success with FMS, and I'm going to reinstall Web of Trust and see if I can get that working now for Freetalk.

Glad to hear things are at least somewhat working. I'm not at all certain what the Frost issue could be. Be warned that WoT/Freetalk is not precisely release ready, as I understand it :) Some of the other messages in this thread may have been unclear, but I believe the only relationship between FMS and WoT/Freetalk is that they solve similar problems; their web of trust concepts are fairly different, they're by different developers, and share no code. There has been much ranting about the design decisions of one or both approaches by many people (myself included); there's no need to rehash that, but you can find it in the archives if you're interested in the spam / introductions / captchas problem in the abstract. Also, neither Frost nor FMS is officially supported by the Freenet Project; you can certainly find help here, but bug reports should go to their authors. My understanding is that the Thingamablog port is very old and not maintained, which I find unfortunate. The problem it tries to solve -- making publishing a flog easy for a new user -- is important, imho. I suspect you're more interested and able to give comments on usability issues, installation issues, and what the average Windows user is likely to expect than many people are. I encourage you to offer any such comments / critiques / etc here, in IRC, or by filing bugs on the bug tracker. Improvements to the first-time-user experience are very important, imho. I'm glad you seem to be liking Freenet!

Re: [freenet-support] Assistance
Hi, Volodya, No worries. There is no such thing as an insulting question when something isn't working. I worked support enough years to have a thick skin anyway. I got Frost from the alpha/plugins directory at downloads.freenetproject.org. However, no worries there. I downloaded Frost again, removed the old, and tried from scratch - and bingo, it's working. I did the same with Freemail, and it is suddenly working also, lol. Evidently, third time is the charm. I am coming to the conclusion that being stubborn is an asset in this business. WoT and Freetalk are still not working - not even after a reinstall of the unofficial plugins - but as somebody just pointed out, they are still a work in progress. Does anyone know when Freenet 0.8 is expected? I understand Freetalk will be bundled with it, and I hope it can be persuaded to work by then. Many thanks for all the help!

Yes, but strangely enough for me most of things just work when it comes to Freenet. I don't know if it's my karma or i just don't notice some bumps which attract people, but i hope it stays that way. There are things which are horribly uncomfortable to use, but then i end up changing them so that they are suitable for me. FMS for example is being mirrored to Frost by me, because i find Frost to be better. So if you want to read FMS without the need to post there, you just subscribe to the board "fms-NAME.OF.BOARD" substituting the name of the board on FMS and bingo, you are reading the messages (timestamps and senders are preserved, even threads work if i happen to receive the messages more or less in order). > WoT and Freetalk are still not working - not even after a reinstall of > the unofficial plugins - but as somebody just pointed out, they are > still a work in progress.
