As it seems it is used for the "Distribution Pages" (click on the link
"Spread Freenet" in the Web-Interface). This spreads a freenet-zip with
your personal seednodes. So not all people start with the same
seednodes. This should make the net better connected I think.
If the port is firewalled it just means your Distribution pages can't be
accessed once they are created. It has nothing to do with the running of
your node.

Well, enough clowning around. Perl is, in intent, a cleaned up and
summarized version of that wonderful semi-natural language known as
"Unix".
