Largely correct as far as I can tell.

Any support outside of qbitorrent yet? I know it's not FOSS, but I much prefer working in Tixati. Do I need to refamiliarize myself with qbitorrent if I want to try i2p?

About

I2PSnark is an I2P-only BitTorrent client built with Java. This allows you to spin up a docker container with a I2PSnark client which can be managed through the web-ui. This specific I2PSnark application is from the I2P+ team at https://i2pplus.github.io/ and http://skank.i2p using this package http://i2pplus.github.io/installers/I2P+_2.2.0+_i2psnark-standalone.zip.

Testing

Use this .torrent file to test if your I2PSnark client is working:

I have created a Dockerfile which will compile the latest version of qBittorrent which has experimental I2P support into a docker container with VNC support. The reason for this is my server is headless and I wanted to use the v4.6.x version of qBittorrent, but the qbittorrent-nox version of v4.6.x does not have I2P options yet. So I had to build the GUI version on top of a VNC image.

In doing so, this will build a container that has VNC capabilities where you can utilize a desktop environment to setup the GUI version of qBittorrent with your I2P settings, and then just use the web-ui from there on.

Why?

I am a qBittorrent user and wanted to start downloading and cross-seeding torrents with I2P, so I built this image as a drop in replacement of my linuxserver/qbittorrent docker container and it just works.

Why don't you post the docker image?

I am not sure how yet, and I also left it as a Dockerfile so that you can build this on ARM or x86-64 depending on your needs

Note

This image can be quite heavy and take a long time to build, but until v4.6.x is out of beta, this will do.

This release is going to focus on identifying hardening the netDb against context confusion attacks, refining and elaborating upon the behavior of the blocklist, and mitigating some of the types of spam which have appeared on the network. We will be implementing handling of congestion capabilities, eliminating the majority of lookup spam, and implementing an i2pd-style multiple-netDb design which allows each client to use a different store of LeaseSets than a floodfill running on the same router, providing us with a clear boundary between information sent to and used by clients and information sent to and used by the router. By doing things this way, we can also make make it easier for the netDb to handle obscure cases like multihoming. Please test, test, test, and report your findings, these are big changes and they won't go in unless we are sure they're right.

Hi, I'm new to I2P and wondering, if the network is growing or shrinking.

I have a small VPS that had little to do, so I run a router there. My router knows of 8,700 other routers (that's pretty constant).

• Would this be a good measure to estimate on how big the network is?
• Do you have a similar number of known routers?
• And is the network growing or shrinking?

Thank you.

Did i2p just become illegal in Russia?

Hello, I am trying to set up i2p on my dedicated server. I had it set up but it seems to have broke recently after messing with some other services on the server (don't ask I honestly don't remember what I changed.) I uninstalled and reinstalled i2p+, and configured it in ~/.i2p/clients.config.d/00... to listen on 192.168.1.1/24 and restarted the router. After that didn't work I tried creating an ssh tunnel to it to access it as localhost, but that didn't load and ssh returned the error "channel 3: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused." If anyone knows anything about setting up a dedicated i2p router on LAN, please help.

Edit - Found this in the logs: 2023/08/02 10:32:58 | INFO | Unable to bind the Router Console to any address on port 7657

Edit 2 - Update: Upon reinstalling i2p+ completely, I was able to get in with an ssh tunnel. Now I will try to open it up to the network and document my changes here in case anyone else runs into the same problem.

Edit 3 - Update: I realized that I am stupid. I was putting the wrong ip in the configuration files in clients.config.d because I thought it was the ip of allowed clients not the ip that it is reachable by. Once I also changed the settings in ~/.i2p/router.config it would redirect to an https version which wouldn't load. I added routerconsole.redirectToHTTPS=false in router.config and it loaded an http page. Next I need to allow lan connections on so I can use it as a dedicated router.

Seems like almost all .i2p sites I see is dead, I think links are dead but b32 ones still work. Is there a maintained repo/site/index with well structured info?

nonbob seems to work :/

If you want to install the latest version of i2pd on OpenBSD -stable

Have a look at the roadmap. Is there anything there you can help with? More info at the forum, eventually.

So I installed i2p on a Linux Mint VM. I'm able to see i2p sites, but I'm also able to browse clearnet sites, which I thought would not work. Does the default Linux installer configure an exit node by default?

Library supports all I2P SAM features:

• streams, reply-able datagrams and raw datagrams
• session options (example: variable-length inbound/outbound tunnels)

It's well researched, tested and proven in demanding censorship-resistant fully distributed systems, like DIVA.

I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .

Why haven't the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?
