For a brief while (in between releases 1.9 and 1.10, specifically from revision bc21726 on 12-Mar-2012, until bf416af on 10-Jun-2012), the new introducer code stored its node key in NODEDIR/private/server.privkey . After that point, it was updated to store this key in NODEDIR/private/node.privkey instead. Fallback code was added to read from the old location if present (so that folks using development versions could keep their node keys after the bf416af change). This patch removes the fallback code. If you have a node which was run under a version of Tahoe within this range, you need to manually update your node by running: mv NODEDIR/private/server.privkey NODEDIR/private/node.privkey and then restart the node. If you accidentally start an older node with code after this patch, it will create a new key (and other peers will think a new server has appeared). You can either stick with the new key, or use the command above to switch back to the old key. See docs/nodekeys.rst (not yet written) for details about the node key and how it is used.
========== Tahoe-LAFS ========== Tahoe-LAFS is a Free Software/Open Source decentralized data store. It distributes your filesystem across multiple servers, and even if some of the servers fail or are taken over by an attacker, the entire filesystem continues to work correctly and to preserve your privacy and security.
