Hmmm. I just checked the tgz, the files ARE executable, so it's not what
I thought it was (in which case the solution would be to chmod a+x
*.sh).

Okay, perhaps you're in the wrong folder. Please show me the output of
ls -l

If the files shown are not there, then:

find / -iname start-freenet.sh

That should return something like:
/home/toad/freenet/123456/start-freenet.sh

Now switch to the parent directory:
cd /home/toad/freenet/123456 
(in our example; remove the /start-freenet.sh from the end).

Then try "./start-freenet.sh" or "bash start-freenet.sh".
