I have just started a new node on my SuSE box without any problems. 1) Download tarball. 2) gunzip/tar -vxf 3) cd freenet 4) ./preconfig.sh 5) edit freenet.conf (add ipAddress, and storeSize) 6) forward the freenet listen port on my NAT box 7) ./update.sh 8) ftp over a seed nodes file from another machine 9) ./start-freenet.sh
Note: If you're not running behind a NAT box or firewall, you can skip step 6. You can most likely skip step 5 too, unless you want a larger datastore (which you should do, I use storeSize=4096M). Last I heard there was some issues with default seednodes, so step 8 may be the key with a new install at the moment. I don't know of a graceful way to getting a fresh seednodes file at the moment tho. > > From: Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2004/01/01 Thu AM 11:31:33 CST > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > CC: MeVerizon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [freenet-support] Help, please. > > I have installed Freenet on my SuSE system.
