OK here's what I did. I renamed .fproxyrc to .fproxyrc.bak. The contents of my freenet.ini are: >>> [Freenet Node] listenPort=12401 service.fproxy.port=8083 logging=Debug <<< Should I be adding to the [Freenet Node] section, or is there a different section? I try connecting to http://localhost:8083 but get page not found. I exited freenet (via the icon in the tray) and restarted it after changing settings. Is there anything else I should do? I respectfully suggest that default values should appear in the configuration files, even if commented out, so that novices like me can easily discover the settings. Thanks! -- Cheers, Graham Perks.

Actually, you should get rid of your .fproxyrc, if it exists. All configuration should go through: service.[servicename].[configname]=[configvalue] And unless you're using another node as the server for FProxy, you shouldn't ever have to set the serverAddress config.

Also, if things still don't work, try setting logging=Debug in your freenet.ini file. This should give you some big diagnostic info at startup, which may tell you what's going wrong. ~Mr. Bad P.S. The file formats are the same on Windows and other platforms. P.P.S.

I'm not sure how best to do that. I think that's all (freenet.ini or .freenetrc) : # Should we read some information about other nodes from the informUrl? informRead=no # Should we write our address to the inform URL so that others might # find out about us more easily? informWrite=no and a valid file with your private nodes .. # The name of a file containing an initial set of nodes to connect to nodeFile=nodes.config Ruediger --__--__-- Message: 5 Date: Thu, 31 May 2001 08:59:39 +0200 From: Sebastian =?iso-8859-1?Q?Sp=E4th?= <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Universit=E4t?= St. Gallen To: Dave Hooper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [freenet-support] Re: error message during start freenet & Win release plan Dave Hooper schrieb: > > Neither can I (Win 98 and ME) that is really weird.

One issue which remains seems to be that spaces in the JavaExec path don't work with the CLASSPATH approach. We might need to wrap it in ""'s.

If it's crashing (and we lost the updated source), let's fall back to the Java config. Your Freenet.exe does it automatically if config.dll doesn't exist, so it is the easiest thing in the world to do, right? > 2 > The new release uses the binary config.dll (the so-called "crashing" > one) and we cross our fingers and hope it works with the new freenet.exe > There is *NO* option 3 , "Use the existing config.dll", because it is too > incomplete to be of much use.

At least we have to fix up the hang on no Java found, the reverting to the first found entry on search done and the long expected improvement of the registry reading.

Freenet doesn't provide access to websites, unless a website is inserted(copied) in freenet you can't get it via freenet. Besides, it might be difficult to get a freenet node running, since you seem to be behind a proxy/firewall. If you want access to freenet I'm shure someone(me too) could open fproxy for you, just ask. This would give you a chance to mess with freenet. BTW: anyone knows of public fproxy's? This would make sense for people that can't run their own node. I think you're looking for tools like HTTPTunnel: "httptunnel creates a bidirectional virtual data connection tunnelled in HTTP requests. The HTTP requests can be sent via an HTTP proxy if so desired." www.nocrew.org/software/httptunnel.html Multiproxy: "Unique personal proxy server, helps protect your privacy on Internet and can speed up your downloads..." www.multiproxy.org/downloads.htm After all, I'm interested to know what type of websites get blocked by the communist party? hope this helps you, Stephan On Thu, 31 May 2001 02:03:27 right ma wrote: > Would you tell me how to use your freenet to open the sites wich locked my > the communist party? > > thanks > > _________________________________________________________________________ > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. > > > _______________________________________________ > Support mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/support > > --__--__-- Message: 7 Date: Thu, 31 May 2001 10:43:59 +0200 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: "Marco A.

And many many other news, political, human rights, or religious websites. China has completely blocked all newsgroups!!! At one time, Caltech hosted a small website for "Falun Gong Club in Cultech" on the same server that offers student services. The Chinese communists block the entire caltech webserver. So applicants in China were not able to complete the application until the matter was settled through high deplomatic channels. And of course, the Club website was moved out of the Cultech server. How? They have a national firewall that filters email and http packets. If they discover certain key words (like freenet) used they will examine where they are from, and automatically block the source, and in many cases, persecute the requester. In many Internet bars, they have software to discover that if you trying to visit any banned website (even through proxy), and set off a sound alarm. The software is generally called Internet-110, where 110 is the phone number for police there. The son of the Chinese President directly oversees the Internet-110 project. There are also a lot of government supported professional hackers to hack the above sites. So I knew sooner or later freenetproject.org will be hacked.
