I'll probably have that box dual-purpose as Freenet/i2P node. With Frost running, if it has a GUI, right? I wonder how hard it would be to get Frost to run as a background process, like Freenet. -todd No, probably not. I'll intall a GUI that I'll use now and then, but for the most part,

Yeah, it would be. I dunno, maybe it'd create too much overhead. Sure would help integration though. Though after playin' around with i2P, I dunno that Freenet will have much of a future anyway. It's a nice idea, but it just doesn't seem to work too well. I've tried it numerous times, and I

So the "keys" it collects... Are these sorta like router table entries? It doesn't cache the sites themselves, it caches the keys and slowly builds up a routing table that enables you to surf around? Mika Hirvonen wrote: On Sun, 27 Feb 2005 13:46:37 -0500, Don Gregory &l
