Excellent, thanks. Last night I also created a directory on the testgrid to experiment with unknown caps (it's linked as davidsarah/ from the main public directory): URI:DIR2:bntvvn2bf37vwmrd3ttbygt4s4:qymwa2lcvhjvi3hnamxew6ywro5jmj7zfnspmrpqv3n7faibprlq/ (prefix with http://testgrid.allmydata.org:3567/uri/ or http://testgrid.allmydata.org:3568/uri/ to see the old and new behaviours). Everything seems to work as I intended -- the unknown read cap URIs are prefixed with ro. in the mutable directory, and imm. in the immutable directory. The JSON link on the info page of an unknown dirnode now works. The only odd thing is that there is no "tahoe" field in the metadata of 'immutable-dir/only-child-from-the-future' (which was created by a mkdir-immutable operation). It should have been added automatically. I think that's probably a preexisting bug that doesn't have anything to do with the #833 changes, but I'll investigate. BTW, I'd like to thank Jody Harris for donating a cloud server on which to run a node. I did get Tahoe running on it, but the node didn't seem to be accepting connections. We can look at why not later. Unknown nodes still can't be created using the WUI (although they can be renamed, etc.) To create your own caps-from-the-future: Install 'restez' (a Python command-line HTTP client) from restez.googlecode.com. svn checkout http://restez.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ restez-read-only cd restez-read-only python setup.py install Then create a set-children.json text file with contents similar to: { "your-name-here": [ "filenode", { "rw_uri": "x-lafs:writecap-from-the-future", "ro_uri": "x-lafs:readcap-from-the-future", "metadata": {} } ] } and enter the following command (one line): restez POST http://testgrid.allmydata.org:3568/uri/URI%3ADIR2%3Abntvvn2bf37vwmrd3ttbygt4s4%3Aqymwa2lcvhjvi3hnamxew6ywro5jmj7zfnspmrpqv3n7faibprlq?t=set-children set-children.json -- David-Sarah Hopwood ⚥ http://davidsarah.livejournal.com
