NRS is generating errors constantly. See the console in chrome.

Refused to set unsafe header "Content-length" (index):1
46
Refused to set unsafe header "Content-length"

Hundreds of these errors after a few minutes.

This is also why I can't release an update to NxtMac - apparently the safari version included in cocoa does not like these errors at all and does not show any output (peers, blocks, etc).

Please fix.

We are searching for the right incentives for:

- running a node (this secures the network)
- running a node, have an open nxt account and forging with it (this secures the security of nxt = 51% attacks ?!) DONE by TF.

FIFY.

Even with transparent forging, Nxt is still susceptible to 90% PoS attacks.
Financial attack
Somebody buys up all the NXT.
I raised this, but CfB said is was acceptable

Or someone steals (yes, I am looking at you MtGox) 90+% which can happen if we have 10-12 pools with most of the coins in them.

Yes.  It would be very hard to mount this attack, because you would have to own 90% of the currency.

Is penalizing not a part of TF?

No, penalizing isn't part of TF.

I thought we utilize TF with its full potential only if we have penalties in place.

This is what TF is about. Protecting the PoS system. 90% is good enough for me. Wink

We are now talking in length about the PoW system. We have many incentive programs to ensure that PoW is performed and even a prospect (no forging-only nodes) to having service providers install a node in the network. I think that should suffice.

yes.. we're searching to a donations/bounties  to run a node .. or to forge ( help the Nxt server ) .


Huh

I think this is a bad idea. Either the network/nxt itself can care of or this will fail.

Yes, this is a bad idea.  NXT must be self-sustainable.  This is why splitting tx fees between forgers and hallmarked nodes is a good idea.  It encourages node participation.

Code:
java -Xmx1024M -cp nxt.jar;lib\*;conf nxt.Nxt 

It works?

Ya it works on windows, meantime downloading the blockchain from scratch, is the 'login' port changed to 7875 ? 7874 no longer in used ?

The port 7874 no longer used ..  now the new port  are 7875  / 7876 ( with the protocol https:// )  ... try it Wink .

And the most important feature:
The network can detect which miners don't take part in block generation and act accordingly.


CIYAM's opinion yesterday on this was something like "only penalize bigger accounts".
If somebody is not forging, then "penalizing" him for not forging by preventing him from forging for a while is not really much of a penalty. After all, they werent forging in the first place.

What this does however is if Evil Bob is monkeying with the forging process and SHOULD have forged, but intentionally didnt so he can try to game the protocol, THEN he gets justly punished.

Maybe it is just a matter of perception. We can just say that if you stop forging for any length of time, it just takes a bit of time to start forging again. Kind of like if you stop your car, it takes time for it to get back to full speed. Your average driving speed is penalized, but then again you had parked your car!

If you enable SSL, you need to set nxt.keyStorePath and nxt.keyStorePassword, and obviously you need to have your own SSL certificate (self-signed or signed by a CA) in a keystore file.

How i can make a self-signed certificate? Some guide step to step?

Jean-Luc said that JDK has a key tool.
