FreenetWiki: Connecting to users using the Text Mode Client Interface

This wiki is now locked - both user registration and edits (except by admins) are disabled. We're currently migrating all the content to our new wiki. If you have time, please register and help us out!

You can still view the source code of every page. Once a page has been copied over to the new wiki, please add a link to it to MigratedPages (the only page which is still editable), to notify the admins to go and blank it.

Connecting to users using the Text Mode Client Interface

You can control Freenet 0.7 using a command line interface, instead of using the main FProxy webpage. See the Text Mode Client Interface page for more information.

First, be sure that the Text Mode Client Interface is running. Once you have verified that it is, connect to it:

connect to the telnet interface to Freenet by typing this at the command line:

telnet 127.0.0.1 2323

type CONNECT: Hit enter and then copy and paste the ID of the node you want to connect to. (As mentioned above the ID is everything from "lastGoodVersion" to "End".) You should get a response from the node that ID was added. Remember, to connect to a node that node must also add your reference.

type STATUS again. You should now see your new added node/nodes and their state. If you're lucky you will see something like this:

CONNECTED 24.30.37.118:11999 Dalm 0.9093123123143807 Fred,0.7,1.0,232 bias=1.0 reqs: pRO=1.0 (h=2) ins: pRO=0.0 (h=127)
