How do you propose Freenet deals with ports not being open?

Is there any way to create a darknet comprising nodes that all see the
internet through VPN tunnels with no port forwarding? I'm pretty sure
that the answer is "no". Or, at least, I haven't managed it so far.
Yes, it's possible. One of the main way that Internet connections are created in
Russia are to create a network connection to your ISP and then they give you VPN
access that actually takes you to the internet. There's no problem running
Freenet over such a setup.
Would it be enough for one node to have an open port?
If you entire network consists of up to 41 nodes, then it would be possible to
use TCP. If you use UDP with hole punching, etc. then it would be possible to
create the network as large as you want.
