Hi, since I have no possibility to run a node because of the local infrastructure I thought of the following configuration:
At my place I use a satellite downlink together with a ISDN uplink to connect to the internet. The ISDN line is a Flatrate as long as it is only used as an uplink for the satellite communication. The Downstream has a limit of 3 GB of data transfer per month. Since I found node to produce over 60GB traffic per month this would not be affordable. Now I have the opportunity to set up a server at an other person's house who has a fast and cheap line and is willing to pay for the electricity that my server needs. The set up I think of looks like this: (all systems are Windows Servers and clients) I set up the server with the freenet node in his house and install a SSH-server that allows me to connect to the node in a secure way. (Alternatively I establish a VPN) a) I could then either start a freenet client software like my browser or frost in order to connect to the node via the VPN. b) Alternatively I could connect to the server via remote desktop, start the software there and up- and download file between my computer and the server via the VPN. What version would be more secure and/or would produce less traffic. Do you have additional ideas how to be able to work with freenet? Best regards Benedikt
