Basic Configuration

Your YaCy Peer needs some basic information to operate properly

  1. #(statusName)#Your peer name has not been customized; please set your own peer name::You have a nice peer name#(/statusName)#
    Peer Name:
  2. #(statusPassword)#Please set a password for your peer to protect your settings (> 3 characters); if this is successful you will be asked to log in with these values immediately::Password is set#(/statusPassword)#
    Peer User:
    Peer Password:
    Peer Password: (repeat same password)
  3. #(statusPort)#Your peer cannot be reached from outside; please open your firewall for this port and/or set a virtual server option in your router to allow connections on this port::Your peer can be reached by other peers#(/statusPort)#
    Peer Port:

    

What You should do next:
#(nextStep)# Your basic configuration is complete! You can now (for example):

:: Your Peer name is a default name; please set another peer name. If this does not work, the name is probably taken by someone else. Please try to choose another one.:: You did not set a user name and/or a password. Some pages are protected by passwords. You should set a password here to secure your yacy peer.:: You did not open a port in your firewall or your router does not forward the server port to your peer. This is needed if you want to fully participate in the YaCy network. You can also use your peer without opening your peer, but this is not recomended. #(/nextStep)# #%env/templates/footer.template%#
