I2PTunnel migration

After upgrading to the new architecture, you'll have to do a little work to get your old I2PTunnel-driven servers running. Lets walk through a simple example. For an I2P Site with the old clientApp configuration, you had:

  -e "server localhost 80 myWebPriv.dat"

To provide that same functionality on the new web architecture:

• Jump to http://localhost:7657/i2ptunnel/
• Click on Add new: [Server tunnel] "GO"
• • For the name: "I2P Site"
  • For the description: "My I2P Site, isn't it pretty?"
  • Per l'host di destinazione: localhost
  • Per la porta di destinazione: 80
  • For the private key file: path to "myWebPriv.dat"
    (it is recommended to copy that .dat to your new install dir)
  • Spunta la casella "Avviare automaticamente?" [X]
  • Fai click su "Save"
• It will come back saying:
  

    * Not overwriting existing private keys in /usr/home/jrandom/routers/i2p/myWebPriv.dat
    * Ready!
  

That's it! Creating a new I2PTunnel server works the same way too, except you don't need to "copy the old file", obviously. Behind the scenes, it is all driven by the i2ptunnel.config file, which you may modify externally (if you do, hit "Reload config" on the I2PTunnel web page, which will tear down all of your existing tunnels and rebuild new ones)

Note that you WILL need to wait until your router is integrated into the network before you are able to use the /i2ptunnel/ web interface. It will say "Please be patient" if you try to beforehand, which means that it is still trying to build the necessary I2PTunnel sessions it has been configured to create.
