Re: FS as user or not

[madmurphy]

Hi Christian,

Yes, my username has always been in the gnunet group. But in the past I always used the system services of GNUnet, except for the cases in which I needed the user services (like for creating egos).

The only (unlikely) explanation I can think of is that when I search the network using the gnunet system user it shows a lot of results that were cached earlier, while when I search from my personal user it shows only new results, and for some reason there are no more files in the network published under “commons”. This is why I asked if people see the same behavior I see.

If that is not the reason, then I have no explanations.

Hmm. Is your $USER in the 'gnunet' group?
