Hello all interested: I found I problem in the code: each Identity one-time generates an SSK keypair for usage with private messages. There is a private and a public key, the private key is for insertion of data, while the public is is for retrieval. Unfortunately Frosts current code distributed the public key to all other Frosts! So they are not able to insert messages. And the whole usage of SSK keys is'nt needed, because if you insert a message with the private key, you get the complete public key as answer! This way it would be easier to use KSK key spaces for private communication, although this is spammable. But there is no solution for that, or have you any ideas??? Do tools like pm4pigs something fancy to prevent this? If all agree I will add code that droppes the wrong SSK board attachment and accepts other types/formats, this will silently fix this. rgds, bback ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf
