* tub.port is now an Endpoint server specification string (which is pretty
|
|
much just like a strports string, but can be extended by plugins). It now
|
|
rejects "tcp:0" and "0". The tahoe.cfg value overrides anything stored on
|
|
disk (in client.port). This should have no effect on most nodes, which do
|
|
not set tub.port in tahoe.cfg, and wrote an allocated port number to
|
|
client.port the first time they launched. Folks who want to listen on a
|
|
specific port number typically set tub.port to "tcp:12345" or "12345", not
|
|
"0".
|
|
* The "portnumfile" (e.g. NODEDIR/client.port) is written as soon as the port
|
|
is allocated, before the tub is created, and only if "tub.port" was empty.
|
|
The old code wrote to it unconditionally, and after Tub startup. So if the
|
|
user allows NODEDIR/client.port to be written, then later modifies
|
|
tahoe.cfg to set "tub.port" to a different value, this difference will
|
|
persist (and the node will honor tahoe.cfg "tub.port" exclusively).
|
|
* We now encourage static allocation of tub.port, and pre-configuration of
|
|
the node's externally-reachable IP address or hostname (by setting
|
|
tub.location). Automatic IP-address detection is deprecated. Automatic port
|
|
allocation is merely discouraged. Eventually both will be managed by "tahoe
|
|
create-node", but for now we recommend users edit their tahoe.cfg after
|
|
node creation and before first launch.
|
|
* "tahoe start" now creates the Tub, and all primary software components,
|
|
before the child process daemonizes. Many configuration errors which would
|
|
previously have been reported in a logfile (after node startup), will now
|
|
be signalled immediately, via stderr. In these cases, the "tahoe start"
|
|
process will exit with a non-zero return code.
