To construct a client node, run "``tahoe create-client``", which will
create ``~/.tahoe`` to be the node's base directory. Acquire a copy of
the ``introducer.furl`` from the introducer and put it into this
directory, then use "``tahoe run``". After that, the node should be off
and running. The first thing it will do is connect to the introducer
and get itself connected to all other nodes on the grid. By default,
