Re: [freenet-support] Peer connections

Hey Evan.

I tried that site but it doesn't open or exist.
I have gone to quite a few sites concerning how to forward ports 
and so far none of them instruct how to, just this is what you 
need to do. Frustrating to say the least.

Since you say I am connected, how to I contact whoever I am 
connected to? I have searched through all the pages of Freenet I 
can access but nothing that shows or leads me into the path or 
manner of trying to contact any of these connected ones.

Thanks

 SIGH! Again, it mentions forwarding this port and I cannot seem

You already have everything you need to connect to them.  You can 
tell
because you're connected to them.  Similarly, they have everything
they need.

There are plenty of people who can do a better job than I 
explaining
how to forward a port.  Some of them have done so on this mailing

Ok, you can be connected either to somebody you know in real life (you would 
have to trade references for that, and for that you would already have to know 
how to contact that person) or you can be connected to strangers (these are 
found for you automatically by your node, and these people you won't be able to 
contact, and neither do you need to do that).

It is possible that you want to talk to people on Freenet in general (some of 
them might be those you are connected to, but you will have no knowledge of 
that 
(and that's the point of anonymity)). To do that you need to set up one of the 
chat applications which use Freenet to transfer their messages. For example 
you can go to http://jtcfrost.sf.net/ and install that application, after that 
you create a pseudonym and can communicate using that pseudonym with other 
people.

If you need further help on forwarding ports, I recommend you consult
the manual for your router.

There is no way to communicate directly with your opennet peers.  Your
node is connected to them, and routing requests for them (and vice
versa), but that doesn't mean all that much.  If you want to talk to
people, I suggest using an app like Frost, FMS, or Freetalk.  Think of
Freenet like a giant game of Telephone (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_%28game%29 ) or Six Degrees of
Kevin Bacon ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Degrees_of_Kevin_Bacon
).  Your node sends and receives messages, but who it sends them to or
receives them from is only peripherally related to where they came
from or where they're going.  So don't worry about who your opennet
peers are; they're just semi-random people who use Freenet.
