Hello

I run a gateway that allows to peek at Freenet simply from regular Internet.

* freenet.p2p.life/gateway/ to view freesites. only from very limited list. works slowly. Using (a bit patched up) good old SCGIPublisher plugin and Nginx. Using https, but also allowing http.

* news.p2p.life to access via NNTP the messages on Freenet FMS. Whitelist. Only not controversial groups, users, and no shared accounts.

Oh, above message is by me - user "p2plife". Didn't notice you still need to put in username even when already logged in on the website (novabbs com)

Very nice, thanks for providing such a site. I did do that a few years ago and it was interesting. I haven't looked at your site yet but on mine the main thing I had to make sure is that if there was a problem with my router connecting to the site, it didn't present the router interface to the end user. Not hard to fix, but don't really remember how I did it now.

Cool. If you look on another of my sites, www.rocksolidbbs.com, you'll see that I provide access *read only" right now to some FMS groups.

Have fun!

Yes, that is because I used to run FudForum before I wrote this forum software (rslight). FudForum had a major problem with sessions on Tor, and you could easily end up in someone else's session and post as them. To avoid that, I force entering user/pass on every post, and you can decide whether to keep that info saved in your browser or not.

Also, glad to have you here! Keep us posted on your projects.

Great.
The HTTP Freenet site gateway can be very slow, might need to wait a minute and retry.

I will look into it.
- domain
- nginx setting?
- certbot setting?

You can change that in the news server's settings, but be aware that
no-login and posting-enabled news servers a a spam target.

Looks good. I haven't been able to connect to a site yet, but that' Freenet.

nntp server seems to work just fine :)

ipv6 should work now, if anyone wants to test
nntp://news.p2p.life/ (no SSL. ipv6 and 4, read-only)
https://freenet.p2p.life/gateway/
https://bounce.p2p.life:6607/ IRC bouncer (https and ircs on same port 6607) - if someone really wants IRC (znc) account and is well known in this or Freenet, Tor community, then I can create account, my details to reach me on my homepage linked from p2p.life

I get connection refused, so I assume your NNTP server isn't listening
on the IPv6 address.

DNS is fine.

DNS already works fine.

nginx needs to listen on the IPv6 addresses.
