When I open the Fingertip app, I got the following message:

macOS Monterey (M1)

I just want to make sure we have enough active full nodes on the network to support all the light clients being deployed. Bob Wallet will soon launch a version with SPV mode and this may add additional burden. I think four peers is probably still safe enough and eight is probably overkill for hnsd but we should test it out.

So, I downloaded the AppImage and executed it. It didn't show anything.

I was connected to VPN using https://www.wireguard.com and noticed Handshake sites do not open and http://127.0.0.1:9590 shows

I just setup Fingertip on my Windows 10 machine according to the video linked on the Impervious' website. When I attempt to visit any Handshake domain I get a 502 Bad Gateway error. The error message alternates intermittently between server error and read udp 127.0.0.1:5xxxx->127.0.0.1:9592: i/o timeout where the last four digits of the port have ranged between 1550 and 7650 across different page refreshes. Visiting non-Handshake websites works perfectly fine and attempting to access an invalid Handshake site states that the host does not exist. Attempting to access a Handshake domain securely gives a generic Firefox "unable to connect" error page.

I think the problem has to do with the fact that port 9592 (above) does not match 9590 (the setup webpage), but this is not an area I know a lot about.

My Firefox proxy settings should be correct:

Running netstat -ab shows that Fingertip is running on 9590 but nothing is listening on 9592:
TCP 127.0.0.1:9590 DESKTOP-PM0S2JG:0 LISTENING [fingertip.exe]

Any plans to add Android support?

Beacon clients have a beacon suffix: /hnsd:1.0.0/beacon. Can fingertip also say /hnsd:1.0.0/fingertip?

While the Handshake Latest AppImage (v0.0.3) on Zorin 16 (Ubuntu 20.04) the proxy works to resolve domains, but even with the certificate installed in firefox and my PC's trust store, TLS doesn't work

Please see attached screenshots while trying to run the Fingertip-v0.0.3.msi file. This was ran in a company laptop

.

While talking to folks who want to use hdns.io or similar approaches to enabling handshake domain resolution, it occurs to me that there isn't a convenient way to get security through DANE support yet outside of fingertip. But people might still have good reasons to want to switch to a remote DNS resolver. If/when DNSSEC is available, it'd be nice to be able to run fingertip with the hnsd bits disabled and just rely on the system/browser configured remote resolver. This would let us choose for ourselves between the various tradeoffs of different resolver options but still use the easiest available way to support DANE for TLS security. For example, I recently heard of someone whose ISP outright drops port 53 traffic except to their own DNS resolvers, so DoH is the best workaround for those people. DoH is also becoming popular for more basic ISP-layer traffic privacy reasons, and I know y'all are working on something in that direction, but meanwhile this seems to me like a very reasonable usability option to go ahead and support.

How do I configure chrome to work with fingertip? I can only find a guide on how to do that for Firefox. Chrome doesn't seem to have a proxy setting

The GUI doesnt work (There is no response after clicking the file)

This is the error:
**(Fingertip-v0.0.3.AppImage:106896): GLib-GIO-ERROR : 16:49:20.056: Settings schema 'org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings' does not contain a key named 'antialiasing'
SIGTRAP: trace trap

It would be great if you could provide a binary for Apple Silicon, so that people with current macs do not need to compile the software.

I've installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and used Fingertip as I used it with the previous version of Ubuntu.

These are some problems I experienced:

1. The GUI can't be executed. I've already changed the permission by using this command:

chmod+x [Fingertip AppImage]

2. I finally moved to the terminal and tried to execute Fingertip via the Terminal. I executed this command:

./[Fingertip AppImage]

It didn't run well and displayed an Error Message:
libgio-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_module_open_full

3. I asked the creator of AppImage and he said that the problem may be due to libgio-2.0.so.0.
   I extracted the app using this command:
   ./[Fingertip File] --appimage-extract
   and it generated a folder named squashfs-root.

Then, I executed a file named fingertip in this folder squashfs-root/usr/bin.

It didn't run well.

Then, I removed the libgio-2.0.so.0 inside the lib folder of Fingerprint and re-executed the file named fingerprint. After that, I finally could run the GUI.

4. I followed some instructions like importing the cert and inputting http://127.0.0.1:9590/proxy.pac to configure the proxy.
   These are the status:

Handshake Resolver Status | Ready
Block height | 140121
Browser using Fingertip | Yes
DNS Interference Test | Passed

5. And then I tried to browse some HNS domains and these are the errors:

Without bridge (hns.is or hns.to):
502 Bad Gateway

With bridge (hns.is or hns.to)
504 Gateway Timeout

Additional Information:

I use Mozilla Firefox.
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

Thank you for your attention.

My nameserver is resolving A records properly but servfailing on AAAA queries (woops). Fingertip gives me dns lookup failed (rcode: servfail). It would be nice if Fingertip just used the A record and ignored the AAAA servfail, in case others also have partially broken nameservers.

Hey 🖖

A common question on Handshake community is: "What about conflicts with ICANN new TLDs?"
The answer for that is something like "you should use a DNS that pick the one you prefer"

Could we have a setting page on Fingertip where we could set that?
IE: Add .music to the skip list, which would resolve it as ICANN

Any fix ? (not local as "add to exclude")

I think reinstalling will fix my issue until this time next year.

I've installed fingertip on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and followed the instruction based on manual setup. When i tried to check the status, it showed an error. (DNS Interference Test: Failed)

Error: "Your network appears to intercept and redirect outgoing DNS requests"

additional info: i used Mozilla Browser

The https://www.pokt.network enables access to decentralized EVM network nodes that enable the node operators to get paid like farmers, stakers, or miners.

The current HIP 5 standard requires additional plugins for every network, and registering handles. Instead, a TXT record should be used to define the network, query it, and talk to a contract from that point on. Plugins should not need to register handles to define nets since this can mean needing to know a list of all networks ahead of time and adds in code and DevOps redundancy in the effort.

https://forum.pokt.network/t/idea-integrating-pokt-with-handshake-domains-hns-and-opera/1578/2 can provide more information, but it also focuses on opera and hnsd.

The end result should be a HIP5 compliant plugin (and modify the spec if needed), that allows you to define a network, and a contract address and have it get a node that's not infura in a decentralized way, compensate the operator, and talk to the contract.

Could an option be added to allow for fingertip to be used over a secure local proxy?
