RetroShare certs

I finally resolved my NAT issues and got RS working and found a chat link to exchange keys / get started.  On that chat everybody has their IP in the cert and say we're supposed to.  I apologize if I've missed it, went back and re-read Ra's tutorial but I didn't see it specified.  I thought DHT does the job, and if you post a cert with your IP here it's removed.  

I would think internal IP is worthless to anyone, external IP is what we're asked to sanitize.  Anyone have any insight?  I'm guessing if I add that back in, new key, broken friend links and start all over?

Thank you!

It's for ClearNet. If you use Tor/DarkNet, there will be xxxxxxxxx.onion name in the cert instead of the IP-address.

Not a Tor (DakNet/Hiddn) cert. Your IP-address (and it's the loopback one, not the one which can be connected to) is clearly visible. Please recreate your cert.

Unfortunately RS is telling me that's not a valid cert. 😟

Edit: seems like it's working now
