<h1>How To Run Tahoe-LAFS</h1>

<p>This is how to run a Tahoe-LAFS client to connect to an
existing grid, or how to set up a complete Tahoe-LAFS grid. First
you have to install the Tahoe-LAFS software, as documented
in <a href="install.html">install.html</a>.</p>
<p>The <code>tahoe</code> program in the <code>bin</code> directory is
used to create, start, and stop nodes. Each node lives in a separate base
directory, in which there is a configuration file named <code>tahoe.cfg</code>. Nodes
read and write files within this base directory.</p>
<p>A grid consists of a set of <em>storage nodes</em> and <em>client nodes</em>
running the Tahoe-LAFS code. There is also an <em>introducer node</em> that
is responsible for getting the other nodes talking to each other.</p>
<p>A grid consists of a set of <em>storage nodes</em>
and <em>client nodes</em> (also known as <em>gateway nodes</em>)
running the Tahoe-LAFS code. There is also an <em>introducer
node</em> that is responsible for getting the other nodes talking
to each other. Which grid of storage servers your client will
connect to is determined solely by the introducer—if you configure
your node to connect to a certain introducer then your node will
only use those storage servers provided by that introducer. If you
configure your node to connect to a new introducer of your own
creation (see below), then your node will not connect to any
storage servers until you've created some storage servers and told them
to register themselves with that introducer.</p>
<p>If you're getting started we recommend you try connecting to
the <a href="http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/wiki/TestGrid">the
public test grid</a> as you only need to create a client node.
When you want to create your own grid you'll need to create the
introducer and several initial storage nodes (see the note about
small grids below).</p>

<h3>The SFTP and FTP frontends</h3>
<p>You can access your Tahoe-LAFS grid via any <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_file_transfer_protocol">SFTP</a> or
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol">FTP</a> client.
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol">FTP</a> client.
See <a href="frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.rst">FTP-and-SFTP.rst</a> for how to set this up.
On most Unix platforms, you can also use SFTP to plug Tahoe-LAFS into your computer's
local filesystem via <code>sshfs</code>.
