Login on separate machine? #133

Hi, sorry if this is a stupid question, I don't fully understand beaker or DAT at all.

I'm curious if there is a way to "transfer ownership" or "login" to rotonde on a different machine. I built beaker on my linux machine but if I want to also use rotonde from a different windows machine, how would I go about doing that?

Thanks!

I always forget the answer to this one, someone else will have to give you the answer.

sp4ghet commented 6 years ago

lol, thanks for the quick response :)

Not currently possible. We're working on the tools for it in Beaker.

sp4ghet commented 6 years ago

Oh no :(; thanks for letting me know and I'll be waiting anxiously for it to be available!

Is there a place where I can learn about how the authentication or verification is being done? I assume there's some unique ID for each beaker browser and each DAT repository has an encrypted key or something?

You can read up a bit at https://docs.datproject.org/

There's no unique ID for each beaker browser, but each DAT does have its own private key which determines your ownership over it.

hey @sp4ghet this is now possible using the mirror command, see https://github.com/Rotonde/rotonde-client/pull/159 for details!
