hello,everyone. I have a question. As a proxy, I2P can help us access websites anonymously. We can access websites ending with .i2p, and we can also access surface websites. But when accessing surface websites, why is it sometimes slightly slower, and sometimes failed?
eyedeekay
I2P outproxies are volunteer run services which your I2P proxy uses to reach sites. They are subject to some constraints. Exit-bound traffic traverses client hops+server hops+proxy-to-clearnet host, which is a pretty long path, and the outproxy itself serves many clients. This can sometimes cause an outproxy to be slow or low on resources.

zzz re: !144 #402 ack, merge when you're ready
zzz
oooh quick turnaround, thanks for the review
zzz
are you waiting on me for anything?
eyedeekay
If you could glance at 142 again I would appreciate it but no rush
dr|z3d
puhaha: if you experience fail on an outproxy, restart your http proxy tunnel.. occasionally an outproxy instance may be temporarily unavailable. if the problem persists, poke StormyCloud or myself.
dr|z3d
also, if you're using i2p or i2p+, you can add multiple outproxies to your http client tunnel config which can help.
zzz
eyedeekay, you still did not remove MIN_VERSION_HONOR_CAPS
eyedeekay
Oh thanks I'll get that in a minute
zzz
other than that, assuming it compiles, ACK
eyedeekay
Super I'll merge it after I remove the unused var
zzz
eyedeekay, I think FNDS is now in its final form. It was almost 1000 lines in -1 and now is 133, mostly comments.
zzz
see how simple things can be? :)
zzz
eyedeekay,
zzz
if (_client != null) {
zzz
...
zzz
} else if (_client == null) {
zzz
...
zzz
} else {
zzz
if (_log.shouldLog(Log.ERROR))
zzz
_log.error("No handling provisions for message: " + data);
zzz
}
zzz
WTF
eyedeekay
Yeah lol I really overcomplicated things
zzz
^^ that's in InboundMessageDistributor
eyedeekay
That would fall as squarely as possible into the 'log everything I see and try to understand it' category of errors in my part
zzz
is this a Schrodinger's Cat situation, the _client is neither null nor non-null?
zzz
logging the impossible won't help you understand anything (((
eyedeekay
Yeah I see that
eyedeekay
But re schroedinger yes, client is one of the two and that affects handling and what we log
zzz
one of the two what?
zzz
cases I guess
dr|z3d
cats!
zzz
perhaps
dr|z3d
that's the dilemma.. are they there or not? :)
dr|z3d
some minor housekeeping tasks.. update to latest Tor browser user agent, maybe pull the latest RRD4J patches.
zzz
anyway, good news is, after two months of clearing out the weeds I'm finally down to the guts of this thing, which is InboundMessageDistributor, and the Handlers
dr|z3d
excellent. and what's your assessment of the mitigations?
zzz
we'll see
dr|z3d
ok
zzz
for starters, git.idk.i2p/i2p-hackers/i2p.i2p/-/issues/468
dr|z3d
non ffs shouldn't be handling direct lookups, no?
dr|z3d
why not just ask a ff?
zzz
as stated in the OP
zzz
when you run out of ffs
dr|z3d
iirc there was concern that direct lookups were part of a concerted strategy to deanonymize routers.
dr|z3d
how would you run out of ffs?
dr|z3d
or is that a hypothetical?
zzz
they all get expired, or you didn't get any in the initial reseed
dr|z3d
I think the main concern was direct lookups for locally hosted leasesets.
dr|z3d
details are slightly fuzzy, but that shouldn't be allowed to happen, even if we do relax the non lookup blocks, no?
dr|z3d
or maybe this is all moot with the subdb protections.
zzz
I'll await eyedeekay's reply rather than guess
zzz
it's blocking RIs too, not just LS
eyedeekay
dr|zed that was one concern, we were also concerned about it being abused for blocklist crowding attacks(to coin a phrase) but I don't think it's right to do anymore b/c of the issues zzz raised
eyedeekay
Direct lookups for local leaseSets should also not be harmful with subdb's anymore
T3s|4
zzz: thanks for your Schrödinger reference. Damn glad I updated my understanding of the still unsolved quantum superposition 'problem'
eyedeekay
I'm tempted to say that it can all go back to the way it was less the subdb-specific changes
eyedeekay
*I don't think it's right to do anymore b/c of the issues zzz raised - and also the issues we were trying to fix are solved better elsewhere
RN
So are my routers asking me to downgrade?
RN
Since 2.3.0 every dev version installed shows the news item to 'update' to 2.3.0 and dismissing the news item does not make it go away.
RN
also I have a 'download unsigned update' even though I have downloaded and applied my latest update.
zzz
eyedeekay, lets think about it some more
eyedeekay
Yeah I still have questions
eyedeekay
RN what news server?
RN
default. I didn't change that part.
RN
I'm used to in in plus, I mean he has a new version every time a politician lies... ;)
RN
bit in Canon it used to go away after reading it and clicking hide
RN
I do have the unsigned updates configured to my builds if that makes a difference.
zzz
the news and the download button are two different things
RN
yeah, both seem to be stuck...
zzz
it will always show at least 1 news header in the sidebar
dr|z3d
yeah, about that. thinking about decoupling checks for news updates and checks for unsigned updates, so new update servers aren't hit so frequently.
zzz
but you shouldn't see it at the top of the console after you click hide
RN
I swear it used to drop out of the sidebar
dr|z3d
*news update servers
RN
am I crazy?
RN
LOL
dr|z3d
you're confusing canon and cannon, perhaps.
RN
hahah
dr|z3d
in canon, sidebar news is only shown if the news section is hidden.
RN
no, as I said when you were disconnected...
dr|z3d
sorry, cannon.
RN
I'm used to in in plus, I mean he has a new version every time a politician lies... ;)
RN
hrrmmm... maybe you're right about hiding it....
RN
but the dl button... last build I made was -10 and it is applied to this particular router... but the dl button is showing
dr|z3d
if you updated manually, you may still be seeing the official update.
dr|z3d
you can tweak your last update config if you don't want to see it.
RN
yes I am seeing the message to update to 2.3.0 it keeps coming back
RN
but I did not update manually, I used the built in mechanism
dr|z3d
well, strange then. could be related to the news not being updated for a while.
RN
this news thing happens both on Canon and Plus
RN
I'm on -83+ and it is telling me to upgrade to 2.3.0... LOL
RN
I did do a drop the file in update to revert Plus to -14+ a couple times, but did not do that with Canon, only applied the updates through console
RN
anyway... I'll probably bring this up again after next release
RN
where is this last update config?
dr|z3d
router.config
RN
hmmm...
RN
is that an epoch time?
RN
router.updateLastDownloaded=1688148101906
RN
router.updateLastInstalled=1695897639296
RN
last installed > last downloaded.... that doesn't make it consider it has been done?
dr|z3d
pass
RN
previous version is wrong. It shows 2.3.0 when it should show 2.3.0-9
RN
or is that just for release versions?
dr|z3d
previous version afaik is just major release version.
