Um... what? I have no idea what you mean by this. If you're on Windows, you use the rabbit icon in the tool bar to stop your node. Then you can just overwrite the seednodes.ref file in the directory where Freenet lives (usually c:\program files\freenet). Then restart Freenet however you usually start it (reboot, or Start->Programs->Freenet->Freenet, or double-click an icon on your desktop, or whatever). If you're on Unix/Linux, you just kill the "java" process(es) that constitute the Freenet node, overwrite the seednodes.ref file, then rerun the start script as the appropriate user ID. > This seems to be the largest problem with FreeNet.

Well, you've got the mailing lists and the IRC channel (#freenet on OPN-- err, "freenode"). -- Greg Wooledge | "Truth belongs to everybody."
