* It could be desirable to connect to a grid (possibly of non-onion storage servers) using Tor to reach all of the servers *except* the user's own servers, which are reachable via their LAN or VPN. * It could be desirable to have a server listen on both an onion address and a LAN address. * It could be desirable to connect to some servers via different addresses than they are advertising (say, because you know its LAN address). OK so maybe these are all variations on the same use case, which happens to be how I want to use Tahoe :) I think per-server connection preferences should be exposed via the introducerless mode which you (Brian) mostly implemented long ago but left commented out and which David made work in the truckee branch[1]. Speaking of which, I really need to bring that up to date with the last 6 months or so of Tahoe development... I'll try to work on that in the near future. I'm looking forward to being able to use the i2p grid (which I believe is the largest and longest running public tahoe grid) and the onion grid simultaneously! ~leif [1]: https://github.com/leif/tahoe-lafs/blob/truckee/NEWS.rst _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] https://tahoe-lafs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
