mod_rewrite

Some search engines list the seed files regardless of an exclusion in robots.txt. To force them not to index the list you can redirect any other client than YaCy on access to the seedfile. To do this, you need mod_rewrite on Apache and the following entries in your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^yacy.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule seed.txt http://www.yacy.net/ [R]

Please keep in mind that now nobody except YaCy itself can download the seedfile.

get fresh list of seedfiles (in Linux)

You can parse the Network.html?page=1 on your (or another) peer to get a really fresh list of seedfiles. (i.E. in scripts ..)

lynx --source "http://<peer>:<port>/Network.html?page=1"|grep "Type: Principal"|cut -d '"' -f 4

i.E. build a simple seedfiles link checker:

lynx --source "http://<peer>:<port>/Network.html?page=1"|grep "Type: Principal"|cut -d '"' -f 4|while read link ; do
   lynx --dump "$link" &> /dev/null && echo "[OK] $link" || echo "[ERROR] $link"
 done
