Usage and tutorials
===================
i2pd can be used for:
* [anonymous websites](#browsing-and-hosting-websites)
* [anonymous chats](#using-and-hosting-chat-servers)
* [anonymous file sharing](#file-sharing)
and many more.
## Browsing and hosting websites
### Browse anonymous websites
To browse anonymous websites inside Invisible Internet, configure your web browser to use HTTP proxy 127.0.0.1:4444 (available by default in i2pd).
In Firefox: Preferences -> Advanced -> Network tab -> Connection Settings -> choose Manual proxy configuration, Enter HTTP proxy 127.0.0.1, Port 4444
In Chromium: run chromium executable with key
chromium --proxy-server="http://127.0.0.1:4444"
Note that if you wish to stay anonymous too you'll need to tune your browser for better privacy. Do your own research, [can start here](http://www.howtogeek.com/102032/how-to-optimize-mozilla-firefox-for-maximum-privacy/).
Big list of Invisible Internet websites can be found at [identiguy.i2p](http://identiguy.i2p).
### Host anonymous website
If you wish to run your own website in Invisible Internet, follow those steps:
1) Run your webserver and find out which host:port it uses (for example, 127.0.0.1:8080).
2) Configure i2pd to create HTTP server tunnel. Put in your ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf file:
[anon-website]
type = http
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 8080
keys = anon-website.dat
3) Restart i2pd.
4) Find b32 destination of your website.
Go to webconsole -> [I2P tunnels page](http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels). Look for Sever tunnels and you will see address like \<long random string\>.b32.i2p next to anon-website.
Website is now available in Invisible Internet by visiting this address.
5) (Optional) Register short and rememberable .i2p domain on [inr.i2p](http://inr.i2p).
## Using and hosting chat servers
### Running anonymous IRC server
1) Run your IRC server software and find out which host:port it uses (for example, 127.0.0.1:5555).
For small private IRC servers you can use [miniircd](https://github.com/jrosdahl/miniircd), for large public networks [UnreadIRCd](https://www.unrealircd.org/).
2) Configure i2pd to create IRC server tunnel.
Simplest case, if your server does not support WebIRC, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
[anon-chatserver]
type = irc
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 5555
keys = chatserver-key.dat
And that is it.
Alternatively, if your IRC server supports WebIRC, for example, UnreadIRCd, put this into UnrealIRCd config:
webirc {
mask 127.0.0.1;
password your_password;
};
Also change line:
modes-on-connect "+ixw";
to
modes-on-connect "+iw";
And this in ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
[anon-chatserver]
type = irc
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 5555
keys = chatserver-key.dat
webircpassword = your_password
3) Restart i2pd.
4) Find b32 destination of your anonymous IRC server.
Go to webconsole -> [I2P tunnels page](http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels). Look for Sever tunnels and you will see address like \<long random string\>.b32.i2p next to anon-chatserver.
Clients will use this address to connect to your server anonymously.
### Connect to anonymous IRC server
To connect to IRC server at *walker.i2p*, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
[IRC2]
type = client
address = 127.0.0.1
port = 6669
destination = walker.i2p
#keys = walker-keys.dat
Restart i2pd, then connect to irc://127.0.0.1:6669 with your IRC client.
## File sharing
You can share and download torrents with [Transmission-I2P](https://github.com/l-n-s/transmission-i2p).
Alternative torrent-clients are [Robert](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_%28P2P_Software%29) and [Vuze](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vuze).
Robert uses BOB protocol, i2pd must be run with parameter --bob.enabled=true.
Vuze uses I2CP protocol, i2pd must be run with parameter --i2cp.enabled=true.
