Download the latest Unix snapshot from here, it will be in the form freenet-YYYYMMDD.tgz where YYYYMMDD is the date the snapshot was created. If you're using Internet Explorer, or most other web browsers, Stuffit Exander will be launched immediately, and will uncompress to the Desktop folder (unless you've set it to download somewhere else). Open a terminal (under Applications:Utilities:Terminal) and type:

> sh ./start-freenet.sh
This will begin the configuation process. If you have any questions, please contact Tom Longson at tlongson@socal.rr.com. If you intend on running Freenet on a Macintosh Classic, go here.

cd Desktop/freenet-YYYYMMDD

Hit return, and then type:

./start-freenet.sh

And Hit return again. This will begin the configuation process. For most questions you can just hit return, but make sure when it asks what your IP is that it's correct. If you have any questions, please contact Tom Longson at tlongson@socal.rr.com.

Freenet requires Java and a full Internet connection.

>
>

Requirements

Full Internet connection

Freenet works best when you have a direct internet connection, ie. when you are not behind a NAT or a Firewall. If you are, please read this.

Java

Freenet requires that Java is installed on your computer. While we are working to ensure that Freenet can work with free JVMs such as Kaffe, currently we suggest that users download Sun's 1.4 JVM from here for reliability, speed, and stability reasons.

Or you can download the latest Windows snapshot from here, it will be in the form freenet-YYYYMMDD.exe where YYYYMMDD is the date the snapshot was created. Run the executable and follow instructions. If you don't have Java installed, use the snapshots named freenet-Java-YYYYMMDD.exe. They are less frequently created and contain Sun's Java 1.3 which will be automatically installed.
