### my i2p remix of refracta

by nadir » Mon Oct 24, 2011 5:01 pm

EDIT:
This is just an experiment! Be warned.
here is the link to my remix of refracta:
http://minus.com/mCVak3OAL
just in case.
It comes with:
i2p
tor/privoxy
apache and a very basic website
scuttle
wordpress
scobby/gobby
zim
osmo
Perhaps more of that kind (my cautious steps towards something like a freedombox).
password are user:user and root:root, scuttle or wordpress is user:refracta. Edit: nope, also user. The password for the ssh-key i added is "refracta". It is there so one can easily copy his own key. Like a placeholder)
I am building a new one right now, added gnunet, dillo,gajim, e17 and fluxbox, and fully upgraded. It might take a while, as i got a few problems with fluxbox. It is not for usage, only an example for what i for one would use a freedombox for (freedombox is about distributed networking, while this looks more like a standard server, in my humble eyes -with client and server on the same iso).

Edit:
something went wrong. I remove it and upload it again later.
I uploaded the new version:
< http: //min.us/mpk8UJmqo > (removed, as it was a bad build>
packages:
------------
i2p
tor/polipot
apache
wordpress
scuttle
gnunet
oneswarm
gtk-gnutella
nicotine
Probably some more, like dillo and such.
window-managers:
---------------
xfce4
icewm
e17
fluxbox
+ most of what is there in refracta anyway. The above is only what i have added.
I can't promise antything. It is an experiment, and only that.

[quote="meandean"]Wow that sounds cool, not something I would use but still pretty neato
More or less it is the result of what i did this year. i2p is cool and looks promising, but not that easy. Scuttle is _the_ ****.
Anyway, i hope this time i did all right:

Not sure why i always forget my favorite: it is free as in freedom (for vrms).

Storing a link to an article about i2p here:
http://how-to.linuxcareer.com/i2p-anony ... the-masses
I have read that i2p is not the right tool for browsing the usual web, at the i2p docu, and that in that case one will want to. But want to have got that article at hand anyway.

Added yacy, the p2p searchengine (bit above me), and am rocking at 670MB
(which means i will either add "seeks" or "mediagoblin"-ultra-experimental soon
(or a forum? a wiki? who knows).
I did not upload it, the version with yacy, yet, as i am in no hurry.
One will not want to run this as a live-CD on a low specs machine (like in Pentium3 with 386 of MB).

I removed apache, wordpress, scuttle (hence mysql and php too), and yacy (all too heavy on resources).
I replaced polipo with freedombox-privoxy
( https://github.com/jvasile/freedombox-privoxy #comes with https-everywhere and adblock and such).
I replaced xfce4.6 with xfce4.8 (+fluxbox, enlightenment and icewm).
Not sure which gui apps are still installed, but i added more cli-apps (like tshark, tcpdump, etc).

Made some changes (again), mainly added retroshare:

readme, standalone:

> This is a private project.
> I took refracta, a debian based distribution (or project),

> The live-CD is inspired freedombox, but not related in any way.
> Lots of apps had to be left away, to keep the size <700MB
> An earlier test included:
> apache, mysql, wordpress, scuttle,
> but it took too much space and was too heavy for running it live.
> #############
> # passwords #
> #############
> username: user
> user-password: user
> root password: root
> password for ssh,gpg,etc: user
> If in doubt try "refracta" as a user, but both, "user" and "root", should suffice.
