Using RetroShare with i2pd
==========================
RetroShare is a rich set of P2P applications, which can work on top of anonymous I2P network.
Quoting [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RetroShare):
Retroshare is I2P capable.
Their [configuration instructions](https://retroshare.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial/i2p-hidden-rs-node/) for Java I2P.
In order to do it for i2pd, you must create a new server tunnels in tunnels.conf like this
> RetroShare is open source software for encrypted filesharing, serverless email, instant messaging, online chat, and BBS, based on a friend-to-friend network built on GNU Privacy Guard (GPG).
[Retroshare]
In order to make RetroShare work with i2pd, you need to create a new server tunnel in [tunnels.conf](../user-guide/tunnels.md) like this:
[retroshare]
type=server
host=127.0.0.1
port="port you wish to use"
port=10123 # pick random port of your choice
keys=retroshare.dat
You can specify [more options](https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd/wiki/tunnels.conf)
Also keep SOCKS proxy enabled. It's enabled by default.
Make sure that Socks proxy is enabled, it listens at ``127.0.0.1:4447`` by default. If not, look at [i2pd.conf documentation](../user-guide/configuration.md).
Restart i2pd with new configuration.
Find .b32.i2p address of your RetroShare node.
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 "retroshare".
Start i2pd with this new tunnels, and get it's .b32.i2p address from http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels.
Now you are ready to create hidden profile for Retroshare.
Mark it as hidden and enter your .b32.i2p and port you specified for tunnel.
Now when everything is prepared, you can run RetroShare itself and create a new profile.
Mark it as **hidden** and enter your **.b32.i2p address** and **port** you have specified at tunnels.conf.
