Well, I HAVE bumped into the half-open connection limit once or twice. Mostly it's an issue for people using P2P clients, edonkey, overnet, etc... It's easy enough to fix anway.
I did some reading on the subject, and the recommendation I got was to manually change the config file to have "TransientNode=False" in it. Apparently Freenet won't integrate into the network as well if you're set to transient. In the process of testing it now. I'll know better in a day or so.
