Title: Namecoin Bundle : local namecoin + local proxy for firefox
Post by: khal on October 30, 2011, 02:31:19 PM
Aim of this bundle is to provide an all in one package that people can install to really use the decentralized part of the namecoin DNS system, instead on relying on external DNS or proxy servers.

How to use it :
- Unzip on the desktop (or where you want)
- Launch :
* linux : namecoinBundle.sh (on gnome, select : Launch in a terminal, must stay open, otherwise relaunch)
* windows : namecoin.bat, then nmcSocks.bat (both must stay open, otherwise relaunch)

If you don't have FoxyProxy in Firefox :
- Install FoxyProxy Standard in firefox (Open "Tools" → "Add-ons" and search for "Foxy Proxy Standard", install this extension and restart Firefox)
- Configure FoxyProx : Go to "Tools" → "Foxy Proxy Standard" → "Options", Open "File" → "Import Settings" and select the file "etc/FoxyProxy.xml"

Files :
http://dot-bit.org/files/NamecoinBundleLinux.7z
http://dot-bit.org/files/NamecoinBundleWindows.7z (tested on XP, does it work on win7 too ?)

Hopefully this will raise the current sucky NMC price induced by MM and people that don't care about our current controllable DNS system.

Merged mining has removed the mining barrier, so, namecoin price will continue to adjust to reflect it's usage...
Buying a domain name will cost less money, is it really a problem if nmc value is low ?
