introducer and several initial storage nodes (see the note about
small grids below).</p>
<p>If the Tahoe-LAFS <code>bin</code> directory is not on your PATH, then
in all the command lines below, specify the full path to <code>bin/tahoe</code>.</p>
<p>To construct a client node, run
"<code><strong>path-to-the-tahoe-bin-directory</strong>/tahoe
create-client</code>", which will create <code>~/.tahoe</code> to be the
"<code>tahoe create-client</code>", which will create <code>~/.tahoe</code> to be the
node's base directory. Acquire a copy of the <code>introducer.furl</code>
from the introducer and put it into this directory, then use
"<code><strong>path-to-the-tahoe-bin-directory</strong>/tahoe
run</code>". After that, the node should be off and running. The first
"<code>tahoe run</code>". 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, a node will serve as a storage
node, meaning that it offers its disk space to other nodes. To configure
other behavior, see <a href="configuration.txt">configuration.txt</a>.</p>
<p>To construct an introducer, create a new base directory for it (the name
of the directory is up to you), <code>cd</code> into it, and run
"<code><strong>path-to-the-tahoe-bin-directory</strong>/tahoe
create-introducer .</code>". Now run the introducer using
"<code>tahoe create-introducer .</code>". Now run the introducer using
"<code>tahoe start .</code>". After it starts, it will write a file named
<code>introducer.furl</code> in that base directory. This file contains the
URL the other nodes must use in order to connect to this introducer.</p>
<p>The "<code>tahoe run</code>" command above
will run the node in the foreground. On Unix, you can run it in the background
instead by using the "<code>tahoe start</code>" command.
To stop a node started in this way, use "<code>tahoe stop</code>".
<code>tahoe --help</code> gives a summary of all commands.</p>
<p>See <a href="configuration.txt">configuration.txt</a> for more
details about how to configure Tahoe-LAFS, including how to get other
clients to connect to your node if it is behind a firewall or NAT device.
