🛠️ Prerequisites
-----------------
Ensure your system has the following installed:

- 🖥️ **C++ Compiler**: GCC or Clang
- 🔐 **OpenSSL**: For cryptographic functions
- 🧵 **libpthread**: For multithreading support

💡 Install them using your package manager. For example, on Debian/Ubuntu:

apt update
apt install build-essential libssl-dev git openssl wget


=====================Run as NON-root user=====================
|                                                            |
|    *Create a System User Without Login Access:             |
|  --------------------------------------------------------- |
|  sudo useradd -r -s /usr/sbin/nologin eNcRyPt              |
|  |                                                         |
|  |--> This command creates a system user named `eNcRyPt`   |
|      with no login shell (`/usr/sbin/nologin`),            |
|      preventing interactive login. The `-r` flag           |
|      designates it as a system account.                    |
==============================================================
|    *Set Ownership of a Directory:                          |
|  --------------------------------------------------------- |
|  sudo chown -R eNcRyPt:eNcRyPt /root/e-N-c-R-y-P-t         |
|  |                                                         |
|  |--> This command recursively changes the ownership of    |
|      the `/root/e-N-c-R-y-P-t` directory and its contents  |
|      to the `eNcRyPt` user and group.                      |
==============================================================
|    *Execute a Command as the eNcRyPt User:                 |
|  --------------------------------------------------------- |
|  sudo -u eNcRyPt bash -c './e-N-c-R-y-P-t'                 |
|  |                                                         |
|  |--> This command runs the `e-N-c-R-y-P-t` executable as  |
|      the `eNcRyPt` user. It uses `bash -c` to execute the  |
|      command string.                                       |
==============================================================

📥 Download the Source Code
---------------------------
Clone the repository:

git clone https://codeberg.org/e-N-c-R-y-P-t/e-N-c-R-y-P-t.git
cd e-N-c-R-y-P-t

or

wget https://e-n-c-r-y-p-t.cc/e-N-c-R-y-P-t.cpp

🏗️ Build the Project
---------------------

g++ -o e-N-c-R-y-P-t e-N-c-R-y-P-t.cpp -lssl -lcrypto -pthread -std=c++17

▶️ Run the Application
-----------------------
Execute the compiled binary:

./e-N-c-R-y-P-t

⚙️ Configuration
----------------
The application uses several files for configuration:

- 📄 **allowed_hashes.txt**: Contains allowed peer hashes, one hash per line
- 🔒 **trusted_hashes.txt**: Stores trusted peer hashes, one hash per line
- 📝 **stats.lock**: Ensures a single instance is running
- 📊 **stats.log**: Logs statistics

Ensure these files are present in the application's directory.

✅ Testing
----------
To verify the application is working:

1. Start the application
2. Monitor the logs:

tail -f stats.log

or

cat stats.log

3. Log format:
