where can i find Reseed configs? (path to it)
dr|z3d
in the source code or in router configs?
anonymousmaybe
router configs
anonymousmaybe
running I2P as a service
anonymousmaybe
cant find it in /var
anonymousmaybe
all other configs i found like tunnels, console..etc but reseed i didnt found it
dr|z3d
wherever your router.config file is, that's where the reseed configs are.
anonymousmaybe
default where?
anonymousmaybe
here right? /var/lib/i2p/i2p-config/router.config ?
dr|z3d
apt install mlocate && locate router.config .. probably there, I don't mess too much with the repo install.
anonymousmaybe
ah yeah found it, thanks
dr|z3d
you won't see the default reseed hosts there unless you've modified the defaults, then it should display all the hosts, I think.
anonymousmaybe
i thought it has its own /reseed.config file
dr|z3d
no
anonymousmaybe
i see, thank you <3
anonymousmaybe
dr|z3d do you know a good search engine eepsites?
anonymousmaybe
for eepsites/i2p services*
dr|z3d
i2psearch.i2p seems pretty good.
RN
anonymousmaybe, have you seen planeta.i2p yet? (no typo - diff from planet.i2p)
anonymousmaybe
nope now gonna check it
RN
not a search, but a lot there I hadn't seen or forgot
RN
someone has done a nice job
anonymousmaybe
im improving I2P over Tor inside whonix docs atm
RN
oh, please link when ready.
dr|z3d
be sure to also have a look at notbob.i2p and/or scanner.linuxfarm.i2p anonymousmaybe .. also useful if you're linking sites.
RN
and if you want a lighter interface compared to those two beautifully done sites, good ol' inr.i2p is still quick and informative
dr|z3d
inr is largely deprecated in favor of reg.i2p
RN
are they run by same entity? I notice reg doesn't show when it was added in the quick results.
dr|z3d
both run by R4SAS afaik
RN
mkay... well I like both
RN
results were quite different
dr|z3d
don't forget whonix.i2p anonymousmaybe, are you hosting that site?
anonymousmaybe
all added eepsites added to the wiki thank you guys
anonymousmaybe
dr|z3d oh there is whonix? damn for sure no
dr|z3d
there are a few distro sites on i2p, off the top of my head.. whonix, tails.i2p, qubes.i2p, hardenedbsd.i2p
anonymousmaybe
omg wtf these are none official ones
anonymousmaybe
what strange is that these eepsites are 100% updated to latest what the official websites doing
anonymousmaybe
seems like a mirror of clearnet to I2P more than a bad/hacky clone
dr|z3d
maybe they are official?
anonymousmaybe
whonix side for sure no
anonymousmaybe
qubes also no
anonymousmaybe
torproject and tails i dunno but there are no official announcement made from them about it
dr|z3d
they look like bona fide mirrors, in any event, so no harm having them on the network.
dr|z3d
in fact, it's a good thing I think. more exposure for the projects, more content on i2p. everyone wins.
anonymousmaybe
yes but first time i know about it
dr|z3d
crawl out from under that rock :)
anonymousmaybe
but what is scary if these eepsites gonna just clone the original website and make malicious changes to the images
anonymousmaybe
yeah this going to be a mess up
dr|z3d
doesn't look like that's the case, afaict the actual images are hosted elsewhere.
dr|z3d
ie hosted at the original locations.
anonymousmaybe
yeah wonder if these eepsites maintainers would have just contacted us before using and spreading their eepsite
anonymousmaybe
so we can be aware of the situation, but yeah lets ee
anonymousmaybe
see*
anonymousmaybe
maybe a social media announcement that these eepsites are not official or so
dr|z3d
identify issues first, best advice.
dr|z3d
if there are issues, like isos not hosted on an official server, or donation addresses that are wrong, then's the time to be concerned. otherwise, bask in the free mirroring :)
anonymousmaybe
yeah good advise
anonymousmaybe
gonna check once i finish wiki improvements
anonymousmaybe
<3 appreciated
anonymousmaybe
isnt freenode gone and most shifted to librachat?
anonymousmaybe
i think if there is a shift on clearnet better to be done to oftc as it support Tor and doesnt complain about having accounts or not in their servers
anonymousmaybe
cc eyedeekay zzz eche|on (not sure whos handling IRC side)
RN
and postman...
RN
so are you proposing relay bots?
RN
to clarify, add postman to that list anonymousmaybe, and asking anonymousmaybe if they are proposing bots like we used to have
anonymousmaybe
no i dont propse relay bots, i propose to update their website where they have I2P over IRC in clearnet side
anonymousmaybe
freenode most if not all projects left it
anonymousmaybe
and shifted to either librachat or OFTC
RN
ah
RN
do we have folks over there? i haven't been on that server in a long time
RN
we used to have relaying to from #i2p on there some years ago
anonymousmaybe
same for me i dunno if there are people there or not
anonymousmaybe
important thing is that I2P project has an outdated reference
anonymousmaybe
one should update that
anonymousmaybe
@eyedeekay
anonymousmaybe
changing network.proxy.http value in TB will corrupt onion services connection from Tor but it will allow eepsites to work
anonymousmaybe
if i change it to 127.0.0.1 with port 4444 eepsites going to connect
anonymousmaybe
but onion connection going to break
anonymousmaybe
do you have an idea how to solve this from with TorBrowser?
anonymousmaybe
within*
anonymousmaybe
onion connection i mean by it connection to onion hidden services URLs
anonymousmaybe
or within I2P if its possible
anonymousmaybe
like some I2P configs to change or so
anonymousmaybe
i made everything work except stucking in this issue
dr|z3d
anonymousmaybe: both purokishi and stormycloud outproxies support .onion addresses.
dr|z3d
as an alternative, you could try foxyproxy and send all .i2p requests to I2P, everything else to Tor.
eyedeekay
anonymousmaybe dr|zed is right but there's another way I'll post about on the forum later today
RN
eche|off, str4d, zzz, one of our translators NarratorZ is requesting voice please.
anonymousmaybe
dr|z3d yeah thats mean instead of Tor inside TB its going to be Tor in outproxy of I2P
anonymousmaybe
thats sorta bad for connection speed so as security
anonymousmaybe
if it was firefox thats good idea but within TB or Whonix not the best option
anonymousmaybe
foxyproxy which is an external (non-default) extenstion in TB will make new fingerprint issues also add extra headache to end user
anonymousmaybe
what im searching is for something either in TB or I2P
anonymousmaybe
last resort is privoxy but i dont have good instructions for it to make it work
anonymousmaybe
eyedeekay awesome! will wait for it
RN
anonymousmaybe, i2peek-a-boo.i2p/handystuff/privoxy%20forwarding%20section.txt
anonymousmaybe
RN this is the latest instructions of I2P within whonix over tor whonix.org/wiki/I2P
RN
that's my privoxy config
anonymousmaybe
RN "forward-socks4a" isnt it socks5 supposed to be? or privoxy gonna forward anyway and doesnt matter which one?
RN
yeah, need to update that
RN
that is an older clip
anonymousmaybe
great gonna test now
anonymousmaybe
E: Failed to fetch deb.i2p2.de/dists/bullseye/InRelease Certificate verification failed: The certificate is NOT trusted. The certificate chain uses expired certificate. Could not handshake: Error in the certificate verification. [IP: 127.0.0.1 9050]
anonymousmaybe
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
anonymousmaybe
cc @eyedeekay zzz eche|on
anonymousmaybe
if you visit the URL
anonymousmaybe
Websites prove their identity via certificates, which are valid for a set time period. The certificate for deb.i2p2.de expired on 10/25/2022.
anonymousmaybe
Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE
anonymousmaybe
wonder why there is no auto-renewal already been made
anonymousmaybe
i believe its already supported by certbot and similar tools
RN
updated. I seem to be using socks5t
anonymousmaybe
RN i delete all /etc/privoxy/config and replace it with this forwarding and its gonna work?
anonymousmaybe
or this is only for forward section and everything else need to be kept as is?
anonymousmaybe
in /config i mean
anonymousmaybe
not sure, not working with me..
RN
only the forwarding section
RN
so you adjust the default config to your needs, and have that part in your forwarding section. Remember in privoxy the last match wins.
RN
so the first rule sends all to tor, unless a later rule matches and does something else
RN
the default config is very well commented for most of the options
RN
now that I think of it, I have a fresh virgin config I haven't looked at yet...
anonymousmaybe
yeah can you make a page with /config
anonymousmaybe
thats easier to copy/paste and test
dr|z3d
privoxy used to be the go to intermediate proxy for Tor. used to be. then polipo took over. both are now a bit long in the tooth. tinyproxy's a much better fit these days for handling multiple proxies.
RN
Is it? I'll take a look.
dr|z3d
there's a substantial amount of largely obsolete code in provoxy for filtering and ad-blocking which only works on http sites.
dr|z3d
*privoxy
RN
yeah, usually skip most of that. Mostly use my DNS to block adds. Makes it fun when not at home and I forget why so many apps have ads I didn't remember seeing.
RN
(I mean on my phone cus home network has ad blocking dns - just to clarify)
dr|z3d
configuring multiple upstream proxies in tinyproxy is as simple as setting a couple of lines in the config file. upstream http 127.0.0.1:4444 ".i2p" etc.
RN
is it featurefull, or minimalistic?
dr|z3d
does what's required. don't expect privoxy-level web UI.
RN
gotcha
dr|z3d
default config file is well commented, you can learn what you need from that alone.
RN
I'd say same for privoxy's config file. (oh, I already did! lol)
RN
that is something that makes a really nice config file
dr|z3d
privoxy is bloated in comparison, the config file that is.
dr|z3d
privoxy also has multiple config files for various aspects of the software.
RN
well, back when... it was a very useful tool. today is is still very functional for what I use it for. Have actually been reconsidering other options for a new system I'm gradually setting up.
dr|z3d
time marches on :)
RN
hey, where can I find detailed specs for what the irc tunnel filters, or tunnel filtering in general?
anonymousmaybe
dr|z3d yeah exactly thats i left dealing with privoxy myself just left all together to the level i forgot how to deal with it
dr|z3d
anonymousmaybe: tinyproxy has you covered. coming to it fresh you can have it functional within 10 minutes, if that.
anonymousmaybe
ah i never crossed on tinyproxy to be used with i2p and tor
anonymousmaybe
ok let me try one second
dr|z3d
RN: apps/i2ptunnel/java/src/net/i2p/i2ptunnel/irc/IRCFilter.java
RN
do I need to pull a local copy of the source to see that?
RN
I was looking for something along the lines of the old viewmtn
RN
not quite ready to start building my own updater files with javadoc enabled again yet
RN
didn't find what I was looking for on git.idk not sure I'm navigating that site well yet...
anonymousmaybe
dr|z3d can you walk me through the needed changes in /tinyproxy.conf to make it work with i2p and tor?
R4SAS
RN: reg has API for such information. Read homepage.
R4SAS
hm, about registration on search results: I can add this
R4SAS
but jump shows adding date. example: reg.i2p/jump/reg.i2p
R4SAS
dr|z3d: nope, inr hosted by "slow"
RN
R4SAS, Thanks for the info and for the service your site provides the rest of us. :) [RTFM indeed! LOL]
dr|z3d
R4SAS: my bad
dr|z3d
anonymousmaybe: I just did, mostly. add the lines: upstream socks5 127.0.0.1:9050 -and- upstream http 127.0.0.1:4444 ".i2p" below it in the relevant section. then point your browser at the port you have tinyproxy listening on. you probably only want it listening on 127.0.0.1. that's it. but read the config help to check you understand what you're doing.
