I've downoloaded freenet some days ago. I istalled it on two machines: one is running Windows XP, the other is running Linux Mandrake 9.2.
I've encountered some problems in both the installations.
In Windows XP i've correctly installed freenet, and it seems to be happily running. But there are 2 problems:
First, the connection is tremendously slow. It is 2 days that it is running without interruption. It is not adsorbing almost any quote of bandwith. I can access only to the web interface and some indexes (some Dolphin and other), but when i try to connect to some of these (and i've tried almost anyone!!!) it says "Couldn't retrieve the key", "The network is busy. Try again later please" (2 days!).
Second, the "store" folder is only 1,5MB (started from 50-100k, i think), while the assigned space is 1,4Gb!
I've tried to update it, to download new seednodes, but nothing worked.
On linux, more problems: 1) I can't start freenet without su root.
2) When I start it, it says:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dp]$ su root
Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dp]# sh ./playfree
./start-freenet.sh: line 1: head: command not found
Starting Freenet now: Done
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dp]# There was an error determining this node's physical address(es).
Please make sure <ipAddress> and <listenPort> are correctly set.
Note that you may put a host name in the <ipAddress> field if you have a dynamic IP and are using a dynamic DNS service.ERROR: tcp/8481: Address already in use

Could not bind to listening port(s) - maybe another node is running?
Or, you might not have privileges to bind to a port < 1024.
(NOTE: playfree is a program made to extend the path to Java environment, to start freenet and to start frost (that works, but there is no connection, it seems).
code of playfree:
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/SharedF/freenet
#include java:
PATH=/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_03/bin
#include sys bin:
PATH=$PATH:/bin #Run freenet
sh ./start-freenet.sh
cd ./Frost
# Run Frost
sh ./frost.sh
3)I've seen in the windows version that there are many options to configure. In the linux version i can't find them, and i can't find a file that contains these options.
I have updated the version of freenet using update.sh. It worked, but freenet continue to say me the same things!!!
Thanks!!!
