- {% trans %}
- A: The general answer is, when it is ready. A better answer may be: earlier
- if you contribute (test, debug, code, document). Every release will be
- anounced on the info-gnunet@gnu.org mailing list and on

- some of the features that exist are more advanced than others.

- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Who runs the GNS root zone?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Short answer: you. The long answer is the GNUnet will ship with a
- default configuration of top-level domains. The governance of this default
- configuration is not yet established. In any case, the user will be able
- to modify this configuration at will. We expect normal users to have
- no need to edit their own GNS zone(s) unless they host services themselves.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Where is the per-user GNS database kept?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: The short answer is that the database is kept at the user's GNUnet peer.
- Now, a user may run multiple GNUnet peers, in which case the database could
be
- kept at each peer (however, we don't have code for convenient replication).
- Similarly, multiple GNUnet peers can share one instance of the database ---
- the "gnunet-service-namestore" can be accessed from remote
- (via TCP). The actual data can be stored in a Postgres database, for which
- various replication options are again applicable. Ultimately, there are many
- options for how users can store (and secure) their GNS database.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("What is the expected average size of a GNS namestore
database?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Pretty small. Based on our user study where we looked at browser histories
- and the number of domains visited, we expect that GNS databases will only
- grow to a few tens of thousands of entries, small enough to fit even on
mobile
- devices.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Is GNS resistant to the attacks on DNS used by the US?")
}}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: We believe so, as there is no entity that any government could force to
- change the mapping for a name except for each individual user (and then the
- changes would only apply to the names that this user is the authority for).
- So if everyone used GNS, the only practical attack of a government would be
to
- force the operator of a server to change the GNS records for his server to
- point elsewhere. However, if the owner of the private key for a zone is
- unavailable for enforcement, the respective zone cannot be changed and any
- other zone delegating to this zone will achieve proper resolution.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("What is the difference between GNS and CoDoNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: CoDoNS decentralizes the DNS database (using a DHT) but preserves the
- authority structure of DNS. With CoDoNS, IANA/ICANN are still in charge, and
- there are still registrars that determine who owns a name.
- <br><br>
- With GNS, we decentralize the database and also decentralize the
- responsibility for naming: each user runs his own personal root zone and is
- thus in complete control of the names he uses. GNS also has many additional
- features (to keep names short and enable migration) which don't even make
- sense in the context of CoDoNS.
-
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("What is the difference between GNS and SocialDNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Like GNS, SocialDNS allows each user to create DNS mappings. However, with
- SocialDNS the mappings are shared through the social network and subjected to
- ranking. As the social relationships evolve, names can thus change in
- surprising ways.
- <br><br>
- With GNS, names are primarily shared via delegation, and thus mappings will
- only change if the user responsible for the name (the authority) manually
- changes the record.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("What is the difference between GNS and ODDNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: ODDNS is primarily designed to bypass the DNS root zone and the TLD
- registries (such as those for ".com" and ".org"). Instead of using those,
- each user is expected to maintain a database of (second-level) domains
- (like "gnu.org") and the IP addresses of the respective name servers.
- Resolution will fail if the target name servers change IPs.

- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("What is the difference between GNS and TrickleDNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: TrickleDNS pushes ("critical") DNS records between DNS resolvers
- of participating domains to provide "better availability, lower query
- resolution times, and faster update propagation". Thus TrickleDNS is
- focused on defeating attacks on the availability (and performance) of record
- propagation in DNS, for example via DDoS attacks on DNS root servers.
- TrickleDNS is thus concerned with how to ensure distribution of authoritative
- records, and authority remains derived from the DNS hierarchy.
- {% endtrans %}

-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Does GNS require real-world introduction (secure PKEY
exchange) in the style of the PGP web of trust?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: For security, it is well known that an initial trust path between the two
- parties must exist. However, for applications where this is not required,
- weaker mechanisms can be used. For example, we have implemented a
- first-come-first-served (FCFS) authority which allows arbitrary users to
- register arbitrary names. The key of this authority is included with every
- GNUnet installation. Thus, any name registered with FCFS is in fact global
and
- requires no further introduction. However, the security of these names
- depends entirely on the trustworthiness of the FCFS authority.
- The authority can be queried under the ".pin" TLD.
- {% endtrans %}

- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("How can a legitimate domain owner tell other people to not use
his name in GNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Names have no owners in GNS, so there cannot be a "legitimate"
- domain owner. Any user can claim any name (as his preferred name or
- "pseudonym") in his NICK record. Similarly, all other users can
- choose to ignore this preference and use a name of their choice (or even
- assign no name) for this user.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Did you consider the privacy implications of making your
personal GNS zone visible?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Each record in GNS has a flag "private". Records are shared with
- other users (via DHT or zone transfers) only if this flag is not set.
- Thus, users have full control over what information about their zones is made
- public.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Are \"Legacy Host\" (LEHO) records not going to be obsolete
with IPv6?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: The question presumes that (a) virtual hosting is only necessary because
of
- IPv4 address scarcity, and (b) that LEHOs are only useful in the context of
- virtual hosting. However, LEHOs are also useful to help with X.509
certificate
- validation (as they specify for which legacy hostname the certificate should
- be valid). Also, even with IPv6 fully deployed and "infinite" IP
- addresses being available, we're not sure that virtual hosting would
- disappear. Finally, we don't want to have to wait for IPv6 to become
- commonplace, GNS should work with today's networks.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Why does GNS not use a trust metric or consensus to determine
globally unique names?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Trust metrics have the fundamental problem that they have thresholds.
- As trust relationships evolve, mappings would change their meaning as they
- cross each others thresholds. We decided that the resulting unpredictability
- of the resolution process was not acceptable. Furthermore, trust and
consensus
- might be easy to manipulate by adversaries.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("How do you handle compromised zone keys in GNS?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: The owner of a private key can create a revocation message. This one can
- then be flooded throughout the overlay network, creating a copy at all peers.
- Before using a public key, peers check if that key has been revoked.
- All names that involve delegation via a revoked zone will then fail to
- resolve. Peers always automatically check for the existence of a revocation
- message when resolving names.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Could the signing algorithm of GNS be upgraded in the
future?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: Yes. In our efforts to standardize GNS, we have already modified the
protocol
- to support alternative delegation records.
- <br>
- <br>
- Naturally, deployed GNS implementations would have to be updated to support
- the new signature scheme. The new scheme can then be run in parallel with
- the existing system by using a new record type to indicate the use of a
- different cipher system.
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("How can a GNS zone maintain several name servers, e.g. for
load balancing?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: We don't expect this to be necessary, as GNS records are stored (and
- replicated) in the R5N DHT. Thus the authority will typically not be
contacted
- whenever clients perform a lookup. Even if the authority goes (temporarily)
- off-line, the DHT will cache the records for some time. However, should
having
- multiple servers for a zone be considered truly necessary, the owner of the
- zone can simply run multiple peers (and share the zone's key and database
- among them).
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Why do you believe it is worth giving up unique names for
censorship resistance?") }}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: The GNU Name system offers an alternative to DNS that is censorship
- resistant. As with any security mechanism, this comes at a cost (names are
not
- globally unique). To draw a parallel, HTTPS connections use more bandwidth
and
- have higher latency than HTTP connections. Depending on your application,
- HTTPS may not be worth the cost. However, for users that are experiencing
- censorship (or are concerned about it), giving up globally unique names may
- very well be worth the cost. After all, what is a "globally" unique
- name worth, if it does not resolve?
- {% endtrans %}
- </p>
- </section>
-
- <section>
- <h3>{{ _("Why do you say that DNS is 'centralized' and 'distributed'?")
}}</h3>
- <p>
- {% trans %}
- A: We say that DNS is 'centralized' because it has a central component /
- central point of failure --- the root zone and its management by IANA/ICANN.
- This centralization creates vulnerabilities. For example, the US government
- was able to reassign the management of the country-TLDs of Afganistan and
Iraq
- during the wars at the beginning of the 21st century.

- A: GNS does not directly help with layer-3 censorship, but it does help
- indirectly in two ways:
-
- <ol>
- <li> Many websites today use virtual hosting, so blocking a particular IP
- address causes much more collateral damage than blocking a DNS name.
- It thus raises the cost of censorship.</li>
- <li> Existing layer-3 circumvention solutions (such as Tor) would benefit
from
- a censorship resistant naming system. Accessing Tor's ".onion"
- namespace currently requires users to use unmemorable cryptographic

GNS
- to perform name resolution as well as any normal user. Naturally, while we
- typically expect normal users to install custom software for name resolution,

- A: First of all, in GNS you can explicitly see the trust chain, so you know
if
- a name you are resolving belongs to a friend, or a friend-of-a-friend, and
can
- thus decide how much you trust the result. Naturally, the trusted-computing

- <h3>{{ _("How does GNS handle SRV/TLSA records where service and

- A: When GNS splits a domain name into labels for resolution, it detects the
- "_Service._Proto" syntax, converts "Service" to the
- corresponding port number and "Proto" to the corresponding protocol
- number. The rest of the name is resolved as usual. Then, when the result is
- presented, GNS looks for the GNS-specific "BOX" record type.
- A BOX record is a record that contains another record (such as SRV or TLSA
- records) and adds a service and protocol number (and the original boxed
record
- type) to it.

replication).
+ Similarly, multiple GNUnet peers can share one instance of the

then the

+ So if everyone used GNS, the only practical attack of a government

and any

charge, and
+ there are still registrars that determine who owns a name.
+ <br><br>
+ With GNS, we decentralize the database and also decentralize the
+ responsibility for naming: each user runs his own personal root zone
and is

+ <h3>{{ _("What is the difference between GNS and SocialDNS?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: Like GNS, SocialDNS allows each user to create DNS mappings.
However, with
+ SocialDNS the mappings are shared through the social network and
subjected to
+ ranking. As the social relationships evolve, names can thus change in
+ surprising ways.
+ <br><br>

+ {% trans %}
+ A: ODDNS is primarily designed to bypass the DNS root zone and the
TLD

those,
+ each user is expected to maintain a database of (second-level)
domains
+ (like "gnu.org") and the IP addresses of the respective name servers.

query
+ resolution times, and faster update propagation". Thus
TrickleDNS is
+ focused on defeating attacks on the availability (and performance)
of record

+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: For security, it is well known that an initial trust path between
the two
+ parties must exist. However, for applications where this is not
required,
+ weaker mechanisms can be used. For example, we have implemented a
+ first-come-first-served (FCFS) authority which allows arbitrary
users to
+ register arbitrary names. The key of this authority is included with
every
+ GNUnet installation. Thus, any name registered with FCFS is in fact
global and
+ requires no further introduction. However, the security of these
names
+ depends entirely on the trustworthiness of the FCFS authority.
+ The authority can be queried under the ".pin" TLD.

"legitimate"
+ domain owner. Any user can claim any name (as his preferred name or

+ choose to ignore this preference and use a name of their choice (or

+ <section>
+ <h3>{{ _("Did you consider the privacy implications of making your

+ A: The question presumes that (a) virtual hosting is only necessary
because of
+ IPv4 address scarcity, and (b) that LEHOs are only useful in the
context of
+ virtual hosting. However, LEHOs are also useful to help with X.509
certificate
+ validation (as they specify for which legacy hostname the
certificate should
+ be valid). Also, even with IPv6 fully deployed and
"infinite" IP

+ A: Trust metrics have the fundamental problem that they have
thresholds.
+ As trust relationships evolve, mappings would change their meaning
as they

consensus

+ <h3>{{ _("How do you handle compromised zone keys in GNS?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: The owner of a private key can create a revocation message. This
one can
+ then be flooded throughout the overlay network, creating a copy at
all peers.
+ Before using a public key, peers check if that key has been revoked.
+ All names that involve delegation via a revoked zone will then fail

+ <h3>{{ _("Could the signing algorithm of GNS be upgraded in the
future?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: Yes. In our efforts to standardize GNS, we have already modified
the protocol
+ to support alternative delegation records.
+ <br>
+ <br>
+ Naturally, deployed GNS implementations would have to be updated to
support

+
+ <section>
+ <h3>{{ _("How can a GNS zone maintain several name servers, e.g. for
load balancing?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: We don't expect this to be necessary, as GNS records are stored
(and
+ replicated) in the R5N DHT. Thus the authority will typically not be
contacted
+ whenever clients perform a lookup. Even if the authority goes
(temporarily)
+ off-line, the DHT will cache the records for some time. However,
should having
+ multiple servers for a zone be considered truly necessary, the owner
of the

database
+ among them).

+ <h3>{{ _("Why do you believe it is worth giving up unique names for
censorship resistance?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: The GNU Name system offers an alternative to DNS that is
censorship
+ resistant. As with any security mechanism, this comes at a cost
(names are not
+ globally unique). To draw a parallel, HTTPS connections use more
bandwidth and
+ have higher latency than HTTP connections. Depending on your
application,
+ HTTPS may not be worth the cost. However, for users that are
experiencing
+ censorship (or are concerned about it), giving up globally unique
names may
+ very well be worth the cost. After all, what is a
"globally" unique

+
+ <section>
+ <h3>{{ _("Why do you say that DNS is 'centralized' and

+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: We say that DNS is 'centralized' because it has a central
component /
+ central point of failure --- the root zone and its management by
IANA/ICANN.
+ This centralization creates vulnerabilities. For example, the US

+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: First of all, in GNS you can explicitly see the trust chain, so
you know if
+ a name you are resolving belongs to a friend, or a
friend-of-a-friend, and can
+ thus decide how much you trust the result. Naturally, the
trusted-computing
+ base (TCB) can become arbitrarily large this way --- however, given
the name
+ length restriction, for an individual name it is always less than
about 128
+ entities.

+ <h3>{{ _("How does GNS handle SRV/TLSA records where service and
protocol are part of the domain name?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: When GNS splits a domain name into labels for resolution, it
detects the
+ "_Service._Proto" syntax, converts "Service" to
the
+ corresponding port number and "Proto" to the corresponding
protocol
+ number. The rest of the name is resolved as usual. Then, when the
result is
+ presented, GNS looks for the GNS-specific "BOX" record
type.
+ A BOX record is a record that contains another record (such as SRV
or TLSA
+ records) and adds a service and protocol number (and the original
boxed record
+ type) to it.

+ <h3>{{ _("I'm getting an 'error while loading shared libraries:
libgnunetXXX.so.X'") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: This error usually occurs when your linker fails to locate one of
GNUnet's
+ libraries. This can have two causes. First, it is theoretically
possible that
+ the library is not installed on your system; however, if you
compiled GNUnet
+ the normal way and/or used a binary package, that is highly
unlikely. The more
+ common cause is that you installed GNUnet to a directory that your
linker
+ does not search. There are several ways to fix this that are
described below.
+
+ If you are 'root' and you installed to a system folder (such as
/usr/local),
+ you want to add the libraries to the system-wide search path. This
is done by
+ adding a line "/usr/local/lib/" to /etc/ld.so.conf and running
"ldconfig".
+ If you installed GNUnet to /opt or any other similar path, you
obviously have
+ to change "/usr/local" accordingly.
+
+ If you do not have 'root' rights or if you installed GNUnet to say
+ "/home/$USER/", then you can explicitly tell your linker to search a
+ particular directory for libraries using the "LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
environment
+ variable. For example, if you configured GNUnet using a prefix of
+ "$HOME/gnunet/" you want to run:
+ {% endtrans %}
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/gnunet/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH<br>
+ $ export PATH=$HOME/gnunet/bin:$PATH
+ </code>
+ </p>
+ {% trans %}
+ to ensure GNUnet's binaries and libraries are found. In order to
avoid having to do so each time, you can add the above lines (without the "$")
to your .bashrc or .profile file. You will have to logout and login again to
have this new profile be applied to all shells (including your desktop
environment).

+ <h3>{{ _("What error messages can be ignored?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: Error messages flagged as "DEBUG" should be disabled in binaries
+ built for end-users and can always be ignored.
+
+ Error messages flagged as "INFO" always refer to harmless events that
+ require no action. For example, GNUnet may use an INFO message to
+ indicate that it is currently performing an expensive operation that
+ will take some time. GNUnet will also use INFO messages to display
+ information about important configuration values.

applications?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: As opposed to Napster, Gnutella, Kazaa, FastTrack, eDonkey and
most
+ other P2P networks, GNUnet was designed with security in mind as the
+ highest priority. We intend on producing a network with comprehensive
+ security features. Many other P2P networks are open to a wide variety
+ of attacks, and users have little privacy. GNUnet is also Free
+ Software and thus the source code is available, so you do not have to
+ worry about being spied upon by the software. The following table
+ summarises the main differences between GNUnet and other systems.
+ The information is accurate to the best of our knowledge.
+ The comparison is difficult since there are sometimes differences
+ between various implementations of (almost) the same protocol.
+ In general, we pick a free implementation as the reference
+ implementation since it is possible to inspect the free code. Also,
+ all of these systems are changing over time and thus the data below
+ may not be up-to-date. If you find any flaws, please let us know.
+ Finally, the table is not saying terribly much (it is hard to compare
+ these systems this briefly), so if you want the real differences,
read
+ the research papers (and probably the code).

+ Another important point of reference are the various anonymous
+ peer-to-peer networks.
+ Here, there are differences in terms of application domain and how
+ specifically anonymity is achieved.
+ Anonymous routing is a hard research topic, so for a superficial
+ comparisson like this one we focus on the latency.
+ Another important factor is the programming language.
+ Type-safe languages may offer certain security benefits; however,
this may come at the cost of significant increases in resource consumption
which in turn may reduce anonymity.

+ <h3>{{ _("Are there any known attacks (on GNUnet's file-sharing
application)?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: Generally, there is the possibility of a known plaintext attack on
+ keywords, but since the user has control over the keywords that are
+ associated with the content he inserts, the user can take advantage
of
+ the same techniques used to generate reasonable passwords to defend
+ against such an attack. In any event, we are not trying to hide
+ content; thus, unless the user is trying to insert information into
+ the network that can only be shared with a small group of people,
+ there is no real reason to try to obfuscate the content by choosing a
+ difficult keyword anyway.

+ <h3>{{ _("What do you mean by anonymity?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: Anonymity is the lack of distinction of an individual from a
+ (large) group. A central goal for anonymous file-sharing in GNUnet is
+ to make all users (peers) form a group and to make communications in
+ that group anonymous, that is, nobody (but the initiator) should be
+ able to tell which of the peers in the group originated the message.
+ In other words, it should be difficult to impossible for an adversary
+ to distinguish between the originating peer and all other peers.

+ <section>
+ <h3>{{ _("What does my system do when participating in GNUnet file
sharing?") }}</h3>
+ <p>
+ {% trans %}
+ A: In GNUnet you set up a node (a peer). It is identified by an ID
(hash
+ of its public key) and has a number of addresses it is reachable by
+ (may have no addresses, for instance when it's behind a NAT).
+ You specify bandwidth limits (how much traffic GNUnet is allowed to
+ consume) and datastore quote (how large your on-disk block storage
is)
+ . Your node will then proceed to connect to other nodes, becoming
+ part of the network.
