Ouch. This is an ancient build. You got that from Sourceforge didn't you? Those are really old files (Someone really ought to update them) No wonder you can't connect. Here's what you do: Stop your node. If you are run windows, click Start>Programs>Freenet>Update Snapshot If you are running *nix, run update.sh Download seednodes.zip from http://freenetproject.org/snapshots and unzip the file. Put the seednodes.ref (from the seednodes.zip file) inside your freenet folder (overwriting your old file) Start your node and go to the "open connections" page. Refresh this for a few minutes until you see some connections active. Hopefully this should get you going. -- I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend, to the death, your right to say it. - Voltaire _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
