You need to connect to irc.freenode.net with an IRC client, not your web browser. Try mirc, which is available here: http://www.mirc.com/get.html
You could also (and I highly recommend this approach) try downloading Freenet 0.5 instead, which does not require you to manually gather node references. However, freenet 0.7 and 0.5 are two completely separate networks. There is no connection between them. However, there are still a lot of people on 0.5, as 0.7 is incomplete and, we feel, has quite a few flaws. Of course, most of the people on here will disagree with me on that...but the point is, both 0.5 and 0.7 have a large amount of users that trust them, I personally am a user of 0.5, and I think 0.5 is a LOT easier to get started with. Anyways, here's where you can get 0.5: http://freenetproject.org/download-old.html On 10/28/06, Sarah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Am not very computer orientated though and am finding it a bit difficult. I have down loaded the software, but when i try and access http://irc.freenode.net/ to get connected (If you don't know anyone running Freenet, visit #freenet-refs on irc.freenode.net and ask nicely to exchange references with someone.) it wants Nagios Access code and password, what is this? > Thanks > > > > On 28/10/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Welcome to the Support@freenetproject.org mailing list! > > > > To post to this list, send your email to: > > > > support@freenetproject.org > > > > General information about the mailing list is at: > > > > http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support > > > > If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to > > or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your > > subscription page at: > > > > http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/support/scarahwarah%40gmail.com > > > > > > You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: > > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > with the word `help' in the subject or body (don't include the > > quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. > > > > You must know your password to change your options (including changing > > the password, itself) or to unsubscribe.
