I'm wondering if you could mention on the = site which primitives are used client-side. All I see is that combinations o= f sftp and ssl are used for data-in-flight. Thanks! I'm not sure what your question is. The available interfaces to the gateway -= - i.e. the cleartext side that is marked in red on [1] -- are: * the "tahoe" command-line tool [2] * your unadorned web browser, even with JavaScript turned off, pointed at the= gateway over localhost (or over SSL to a remote host, or whatever you want) * your FTP or SFTP client * FUSE (although in a Rube Goldberg-esque setup where FUSE is chained to the = aforementioned SFTP server through the "sshfs" tool; Like a Rube Goldberg dev= ice, it actually does work once you get all the pieces set up next to each ot= her.) The semantics of what you can do with this are described in summary here: https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/about.rst#access-co= ntrol And in much more detail in the documentation pages linked from there. Does that answer your question? Regards, Zooko [1] https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/chrome/LAFS.svg [2] https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/frontends/CLI.r= st P.S.
