<h1>Congratulations on getting I2P installed!</h1>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Next up you'll need to go into the <a href="config.jsp">configuration page</a>
|
||
|
|
and provide some info (such as your IP address, etc). You will also want to
|
||
|
|
seed your router on that page as well, and may want to consider reviewing some
|
||
|
|
of the other configuration pages. Alternately, you can update the "router.config"
|
||
|
|
file in your I2P installation directory, which is checked for updates periodically.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>After your router has been configured and you have reseeded, within a few minutes
|
||
|
|
(3-5), you should see the number of active peers increase. If it doesn't, you may
|
||
|
|
want to verify that the hostname and port number specified on the configuration page
|
||
|
|
are correct and reachable from the outside world.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>For help, you may want to review the information on the <a href="http://www.i2p.net/">I2P website</a>,
|
||
|
|
post up messages to the <a href="http://forum.i2p.net/">I2P discussion forum</a>, or swing by #i2p or
|
||
|
|
#i2p-chat on IRC at <a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/#i2p">irc.freenode.net</a>,
|
||
|
|
<a href="http://www.invisiblechat.com/">invisiblechat/IIP</a>, or irc.duck.i2p (they're all
|
||
|
|
linked together).</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h2>Want I2P to run automatically?</h2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>With the I2P install we've bundled some scripts and code (from the cool folks at
|
||
|
|
<a href="http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/">tanukisoftware</a>) to let you
|
||
|
|
run I2P as a service on windows machines (a daemon, for you *nix geeks). To install it,
|
||
|
|
just run install_i2p_service_winnt.bat (or install_i2p_service_unix, as root). To uninstall
|
||
|
|
it, run uninstall_i2p_service_winnt.bat (or uninstall_i2p_service_unix, as root). To uninstall
|
||
|
|
I2P altogether, simply wipe the I2P installation directory.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<h2>What next?</h2>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>By default, I2P comes bundled with the <a href="http://www.i2p.net/i2ptunnel">I2PTunnel</a>
|
||
|
|
application configured with an <b>HTTP proxy</b> listening on <b>port 4444</b> and an
|
||
|
|
<b>IRC proxy</b> listening on <b>port 6668</b>.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The HTTP proxy lets you access "eepsites" - anonymously hosted websites -
|
||
|
|
routing your requests and their responses over I2P. There are also a few "outproxies" -
|
||
|
|
gateways onto the normal internet - through which you can browse normal websites
|
||
|
|
anonymously. Once you've configured your browser to use the proxy, you should be able
|
||
|
|
to reach some of the following sites:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="http://duck.i2p/">duck.i2p</a>: duck's eepsite, with links to other active sites</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="http://ugha.i2p/">ugha.i2p</a>: ugha's eepsite, a wiki that anyone can edit, and lots of links</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="http://forum.i2p/">forum.i2p</a>: an anonymous gateway to <a href="http://forum.i2p.net/">forum.i2p.net</a></li>
|
||
|
|
<li><a href="http://fproxy.i2p/">fproxy.i2p</a> and <a href="http://fproxy2.i2p/">fproxy2.i2p</a>:
|
||
|
|
public gateways into two different freenet nodes</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The IRC proxy is a gateway to duck's anonymously hosted IRC server
|
||
|
|
"irc.duck.i2p". You can treat it like any other IRC server - fire up your IRC client and
|
||
|
|
connect to the server at localhost:6668 and join us on #i2p or #i2p-chat! DCC doesn't
|
||
|
|
work at the moment though.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>By default, those two proxies listen only on the local interface, which means you
|
||
|
|
cannot access them from other machines on your network (and neither can random strangers :)
|
||
|
|
If you want to make them accessible, or want to update them through some other way, go to
|
||
|
|
the <a href="/i2ptunnel/" target="_blank">I2PTunnel configuration interface</a> and edit them accordingly.
|
||
|
|
You can also go to that page if you want to add a new tunnel, such as if you want to run
|
||
|
|
your own eepsite.</p>
