<div class="welcome"><h2>Welcome to I2P!</h2></div>

<p>If you've just started I2P, the Active: numbers on the left should start to 

  grow over the next few minutes and you'll see a "shared clients" local destination 

  listed on the left (if not, <a href="#trouble">see below</a>). Once those show 

up, you can:</p> 

<ul>

  <li><b>browse "eepsites"</b> - on I2P there are anonymously hosted websites 

    - tell your browser to use the <b>HTTP proxy at 127.0.0.1 port 4444</b>, then 

    browse to an eepsite:<br>

    <ul class="links">

      <li><a href="http://inproxy.tino.i2p/status.php">inproxy.tino.i2p</a> 

        and <a href="http://perv.i2p/stats.cgi">perv.i2p</a>: sites tracking active 

        eepsites</li>

      <li><a href="http://forum.i2p/">forum.i2p</a>: a secure 

        and anonymous connection to <a href="http://forum.i2p2.de/">forum.i2p2.de</a></li>

      <li><a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/">www.i2p2.i2p</a> and 

        mirror <a href="http://i2p-projekt.i2p">i2p-projekt.i2p</a>: secure and 

        anonymous connections to <a href="http://www.i2p2.de/">www.i2p2.de</a></li>

      <li><a href="http://eepsites.i2p/">eepsites.i2p</a>: an 

        anonymously hosted search engine of eepsites</li>

      <li><a href="http://ugha.i2p/">ugha.i2p</a>: ugha's eepsite, 

        a wiki that anyone can edit, and lots of links</li>

      <li><a href="http://fproxy.tino.i2p">fproxy.tino.i2p</a>: 

        Freenet proxy</li>

      <li><a href="http://echelon.i2p">echelon.i2p</a>: software 

        archive and information for I2P</li>

      <li><a href="http://paste.i2p2.i2p">paste.i2p2.i2p</a>: secure and 

        anonymous paste service.</li>

    </ul><br>

      There are many more eepsites - just follow the links from the ones you see, 

      bookmark your favorites, and visit them often! 

    </li>

    <ul>

      <li class="tidylist"><b>browse the web</b> - there is currently an HTTP 

        "outproxy" in I2P hooked up to your own HTTP proxy on port 4444 - simply 

        set your browser's proxy to use it (as above) and go to any normal URL 

        - your requests will be bounced through the I2P network.</li>

      <li class="tidylist"><b>transfer files</b> - there is an integrated <a href="/i2psnark">port</a> 

        of the <a href="http://www.klomp.org/snark/">Snark</a> <a href="http://www.bittorrent.com/">BitTorrent</a> 

        client.</li>

      <li class="tidylist"><b>use anonymous email</b> - postman has created a 

        mail system compatible with normal mail clients (POP3 / SMTP) that allows 

        email within I2P as well as mail from and to the normal internet! get 

        your account at <a href="http://hq.postman.i2p/">hq.postman.i2p</a>. We 

        bundle <a href="/susimail/susimail">susimail</a>, a web based anonymity-oriented 

        pop3/smtp client configured to access postman's mail services.</li>

      <li class="tidylist"><b>chat anonymously</b> - fire up your own IRC client 

        and connect to the server at <b>127.0.0.1 port 6668</b>. This points at 

        one of two anonymously hosted IRC servers, but neither you nor they know 

        where the other is.</li>

      <li class="tidylist"><b>blog anonymously</b> - check out <a href="http://syndie.i2p2.de/">Syndie</a></li>

      <li class="tidylist">and lots more</li>

    </ul>

</ul>

<h2>Want your own eepsite?</h2>

<p>We've bundled some software to let you run your own eepsite - a <a href="http://jetty.mortbay.org/">Jetty</a> 

  instance listening on <a href="http://127.0.0.1:7658/">http://127.0.0.1:7658/</a>. 

  Simply place your files in the <code>eepsite/docroot/</code> directory (or place 

  any standard JSP/Servlet <code>.war</code> files under <code>eepsite/webapps</code>, 

  or standard CGI script under <code>eepsite/cgi-bin</code>) and they'll show 

  up. After starting up an <a href="/i2ptunnel/">eepsite tunnel</a> pointing at 

  it, your eepsite will be visible to others. Detailed instructions for starting 

  your eepsite are on <a href="http://127.0.0.1:7658/">your temporary eepsite 

  page</a>. </p>

<h2><a name="trouble">Troubleshooting</a></h2>

<p>Be patient - I2P may be slow to start the first time as it searches for peers. 

  If, after 30 minutes, your Active: connected/recent count has less than 10 connected 

  peers, you should open I2P's port on your firewall for better connectivity. If 

  you cannot see any eepsites at all (even <a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/">www.i2p2.i2p</a>), 

  be sure your browser proxy is set to 127.0.0.1 port 4444. You may also want 

  to review the information on the <a href="http://www.i2p2.i2p/">I2P website</a>, 

  post up messages to the <a href="http://forum.i2p2.de/">I2P discussion forum</a>, 

  or swing by #i2p or #i2p-chat on IRC at <a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/#i2p">irc.freenode.net</a>, 

  irc.postman.i2p or irc.freshcoffee.i2p (they're linked together).</p>
