1. See if some of your friends (from real life or internet) already run freenet, give them your ref (can be found at http://localhost:8888/darknet/) and get their ref (must be input into the same page). After the exchange is complete you'll be connected to them. 2. Go to #freenet-refs on FreeNode and ask politely to exchange refs with somebody. 1 is *much more secure* while 2 can be done by everybody. - Volodya -- http://freedom.libsyn.com/ Voice of Freedom, Radical Podcast http://freeselfdefence.info/ Self-defence wiki "None of us are free until all of us are free." ~ Mihail Bakunin
