Hi Freedombox folks, I find Eben Moglen's ideals and your project rather inspiring. I found them so inspiring that I decided to see if I could create a Freedombox-similar-server to fit my dehierarchicalization-through-plug-computer needs. I think I succeeded. Right now, my server is running in a VM on my laptop (because I don't yet have a plug-computer) and it's not yet reachable over the internet (because my router is physically incapable of forwarding ports) but, right now, it runs just beautifully inside of 128MB RAM, and 2GB disk-space. Importantly, I wrote up my experiment in a tutorial [0] for any like-minded person to follow. If you have the time and interest, I'd appreciate if anyone on the list could give it a read-through and send me some feedback on it - improvements, security holes, any comments at all, really. Let me know what you think! Thanks for your time, Nick 0: https://bitbucket.org/nickdaly/plugserver/ PS: I'd appreciate if anyone could offer ideas on how to make Freedomboxes (or similar servers) reachable over the internet, through ISPs that fight *really* hard (through their policies and standard hardware) to prevent users from hosting or serving anything. I'm looking for hackier solutions than "change ISPs" because, thanks to the monopoly American ISP market, that option's mostly irrelevant. (Is there some sort of DNS alternative out there?) -- GPG: 0x4C682009 | 084E D805 31D8 5391 1D27 0DE1 9780 FD4D 4C68 2009 _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list Freedombox-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE
