18 A Tahoe-LAFS node is configured by writing to files in its base directory.
19 These files are read by the node when it starts, so each time you change
20 them, you need to restart the node.
22 The node also writes state to its base directory, so it will create files on
25 This document contains a complete list of the config files that are examined
26 by the client node, as well as the state files that you'll observe in its
29 The main file is named "``tahoe.cfg``", and is an ".INI"-style configuration
30 file (parsed by the Python stdlib 'ConfigParser' module: "``[name]``" section
31 markers, lines with "``key.subkey: value``", rfc822-style
32 continuations). There are also other files containing information that does
33 not easily fit into this format. The "``tahoe create-node``" or "``tahoe
34 create-client``" command will create an initial ``tahoe.cfg`` file for
35 you. After creation, the node will never modify the ``tahoe.cfg`` file: all
36 persistent state is put in other files.
38 The item descriptions below use the following types:
42 one of (True, yes, on, 1, False, off, no, 0), case-insensitive
46 a Twisted listening-port specification string, like "``tcp:80``" or
47 "``tcp:3456:interface=127.0.0.1``". For a full description of the format,
48 see `the Twisted strports documentation`_. Please note, if interface= is
49 not specified, Tahoe-LAFS will attempt to bind the port specified on all
54 a Foolscap endpoint identifier, like
55 ``pb://soklj4y7eok5c3xkmjeqpw@192.168.69.247:44801/eqpwqtzm``
57 .. _the Twisted strports documentation: https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.application.strports.html
63 A node can be a client/server, an introducer, a statistics gatherer, or a
66 Client/server nodes provide one or more of the following services:
75 A client/server that provides storage service (i.e. storing shares for
76 clients) is called a "storage server". If it provides any of the other
77 services, it is a "storage client" (a node can be both a storage server and a
78 storage client). A client/server node that provides web-API service is called
82 Overall Node Configuration
83 ==========================
85 This section controls the network behavior of the node overall: which ports
86 and IP addresses are used, when connections are timed out, etc. This
87 configuration applies to all node types and is independent of the services
88 that the node is offering.
90 If your node is behind a firewall or NAT device and you want other clients to
91 connect to it, you'll need to open a port in the firewall or NAT, and specify
92 that port number in the tub.port option. If behind a NAT, you *may* need to
93 set the ``tub.location`` option described below.
97 ``nickname = (UTF-8 string, optional)``
99 This value will be displayed in management tools as this node's
100 "nickname". If not provided, the nickname will be set to "<unspecified>".
101 This string shall be a UTF-8 encoded Unicode string.
103 ``web.port = (strports string, optional)``
105 This controls where the node's web server should listen, providing node
106 status and, if the node is a client/server, providing web-API service as
107 defined in webapi.rst_.
109 This file contains a Twisted "strports" specification such as "``3456``"
110 or "``tcp:3456:interface=127.0.0.1``". The "``tahoe create-node``" or
111 "``tahoe create-client``" commands set the ``web.port`` to
112 "``tcp:3456:interface=127.0.0.1``" by default; this is overridable by the
113 ``--webport`` option. You can make it use SSL by writing
114 "``ssl:3456:privateKey=mykey.pem:certKey=cert.pem``" instead.
116 If this is not provided, the node will not run a web server.
118 ``web.static = (string, optional)``
120 This controls where the ``/static`` portion of the URL space is
121 served. The value is a directory name (``~username`` is allowed, and
122 non-absolute names are interpreted relative to the node's basedir), which
123 can contain HTML and other files. This can be used to serve a
124 Javascript-based frontend to the Tahoe-LAFS node, or other services.
126 The default value is "``public_html``", which will serve
127 ``BASEDIR/public_html`` . With the default settings,
128 ``http://127.0.0.1:3456/static/foo.html`` will serve the contents of
129 ``BASEDIR/public_html/foo.html`` .
131 ``tub.port = (integer, optional)``
133 This controls which port the node uses to accept Foolscap connections
134 from other nodes. If not provided, the node will ask the kernel for any
135 available port. The port will be written to a separate file (named
136 ``client.port`` or ``introducer.port``), so that subsequent runs will
137 re-use the same port.
139 ``tub.location = (string, optional)``
141 In addition to running as a client, each Tahoe-LAFS node also runs as a
142 server, listening for connections from other Tahoe-LAFS clients. The node
143 announces its location by publishing a "FURL" (a string with some
144 connection hints) to the Introducer. The string it publishes can be found
145 in ``BASEDIR/private/storage.furl`` . The ``tub.location`` configuration
146 controls what location is published in this announcement.
148 If you don't provide ``tub.location``, the node will try to figure out a
149 useful one by itself, by using tools like "``ifconfig``" to determine the
150 set of IP addresses on which it can be reached from nodes both near and
151 far. It will also include the TCP port number on which it is listening
152 (either the one specified by ``tub.port``, or whichever port was assigned
153 by the kernel when ``tub.port`` is left unspecified).
155 You might want to override this value if your node lives behind a
156 firewall that is doing inbound port forwarding, or if you are using other
157 proxies such that the local IP address or port number is not the same one
158 that remote clients should use to connect. You might also want to control
159 this when using a Tor proxy to avoid revealing your actual IP address
160 through the Introducer announcement.
162 The value is a comma-separated string of host:port location hints, like
165 123.45.67.89:8098,tahoe.example.com:8098,127.0.0.1:8098
169 * Emulate default behavior, assuming your host has IP address
170 123.45.67.89 and the kernel-allocated port number was 8098::
173 tub.location = 123.45.67.89:8098,127.0.0.1:8098
175 * Use a DNS name so you can change the IP address more easily::
178 tub.location = tahoe.example.com:8098
180 * Run a node behind a firewall (which has an external IP address) that
181 has been configured to forward port 7912 to our internal node's port
185 tub.location = external-firewall.example.com:7912
187 * Run a node behind a Tor proxy (perhaps via ``torsocks``), in
188 client-only mode (i.e. we can make outbound connections, but other
189 nodes will not be able to connect to us). The literal
190 '``unreachable.example.org``' will not resolve, but will serve as a
191 reminder to human observers that this node cannot be reached. "Don't
192 call us.. we'll call you"::
195 tub.location = unreachable.example.org:0
197 * Run a node behind a Tor proxy, and make the server available as a Tor
198 "hidden service". (This assumes that other clients are running their
199 node with ``torsocks``, such that they are prepared to connect to a
200 ``.onion`` address.) The hidden service must first be configured in
201 Tor, by giving it a local port number and then obtaining a ``.onion``
202 name, using something in the ``torrc`` file like::
204 HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/hidden_services/tahoe
205 HiddenServicePort 29212 127.0.0.1:8098
207 once Tor is restarted, the ``.onion`` hostname will be in
208 ``/var/lib/tor/hidden_services/tahoe/hostname``. Then set up your
212 tub.location = ualhejtq2p7ohfbb.onion:29212
214 Most users will not need to set ``tub.location``.
216 ``log_gatherer.furl = (FURL, optional)``
218 If provided, this contains a single FURL string that is used to contact a
219 "log gatherer", which will be granted access to the logport. This can be
220 used to gather operational logs in a single place. Note that in previous
221 releases of Tahoe-LAFS, if an old-style ``BASEDIR/log_gatherer.furl``
222 file existed it would also be used in addition to this value, allowing
223 multiple log gatherers to be used at once. As of Tahoe-LAFS v1.9.0, an
224 old-style file is ignored and a warning will be emitted if one is
225 detected. This means that as of Tahoe-LAFS v1.9.0 you can have at most
226 one log gatherer per node. See ticket `#1423`_ about lifting this
227 restriction and letting you have multiple log gatherers.
229 .. _`#1423`: https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1423
231 ``timeout.keepalive = (integer in seconds, optional)``
233 ``timeout.disconnect = (integer in seconds, optional)``
235 If ``timeout.keepalive`` is provided, it is treated as an integral number
236 of seconds, and sets the Foolscap "keepalive timer" to that value. For
237 each connection to another node, if nothing has been heard for a while,
238 we will attempt to provoke the other end into saying something. The
239 duration of silence that passes before sending the PING will be between
240 KT and 2*KT. This is mainly intended to keep NAT boxes from expiring idle
241 TCP sessions, but also gives TCP's long-duration keepalive/disconnect
242 timers some traffic to work with. The default value is 240 (i.e. 4
245 If timeout.disconnect is provided, this is treated as an integral number
246 of seconds, and sets the Foolscap "disconnect timer" to that value. For
247 each connection to another node, if nothing has been heard for a while,
248 we will drop the connection. The duration of silence that passes before
249 dropping the connection will be between DT-2*KT and 2*DT+2*KT (please see
250 ticket `#521`_ for more details). If we are sending a large amount of
251 data to the other end (which takes more than DT-2*KT to deliver), we
252 might incorrectly drop the connection. The default behavior (when this
253 value is not provided) is to disable the disconnect timer.
255 See ticket `#521`_ for a discussion of how to pick these timeout values.
256 Using 30 minutes means we'll disconnect after 22 to 68 minutes of
257 inactivity. Receiving data will reset this timeout, however if we have
258 more than 22min of data in the outbound queue (such as 800kB in two
259 pipelined segments of 10 shares each) and the far end has no need to
260 contact us, our ping might be delayed, so we may disconnect them by
263 .. _`#521`: https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/521
265 ``ssh.port = (strports string, optional)``
267 ``ssh.authorized_keys_file = (filename, optional)``
269 This enables an SSH-based interactive Python shell, which can be used to
270 inspect the internal state of the node, for debugging. To cause the node
271 to accept SSH connections on port 8022 from the same keys as the rest of
276 ssh.authorized_keys_file = ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
278 ``tempdir = (string, optional)``
280 This specifies a temporary directory for the web-API server to use, for
281 holding large files while they are being uploaded. If a web-API client
282 attempts to upload a 10GB file, this tempdir will need to have at least
283 10GB available for the upload to complete.
285 The default value is the ``tmp`` directory in the node's base directory
286 (i.e. ``BASEDIR/tmp``), but it can be placed elsewhere. This directory is
287 used for files that usually (on a Unix system) go into ``/tmp``. The
288 string will be interpreted relative to the node's base directory.
290 .. _webapi.rst: frontends/webapi.rst
298 ``introducer.furl = (FURL string, mandatory)``
300 This FURL tells the client how to connect to the introducer. Each
301 Tahoe-LAFS grid is defined by an introducer. The introducer's FURL is
302 created by the introducer node and written into its private base
303 directory when it starts, whereupon it should be published to everyone
304 who wishes to attach a client to that grid
306 ``helper.furl = (FURL string, optional)``
308 If provided, the node will attempt to connect to and use the given helper
309 for uploads. See helper.rst_ for details.
311 ``key_generator.furl = (FURL string, optional)``
313 If provided, the node will attempt to connect to and use the given
314 key-generator service, using RSA keys from the external process rather
315 than generating its own.
317 ``stats_gatherer.furl = (FURL string, optional)``
319 If provided, the node will connect to the given stats gatherer and
320 provide it with operational statistics.
322 ``shares.needed = (int, optional) aka "k", default 3``
324 ``shares.total = (int, optional) aka "N", N >= k, default 10``
326 ``shares.happy = (int, optional) 1 <= happy <= N, default 7``
328 These three values set the default encoding parameters. Each time a new
329 file is uploaded, erasure-coding is used to break the ciphertext into
330 separate shares. There will be ``N`` (i.e. ``shares.total``) shares
331 created, and the file will be recoverable if any ``k``
332 (i.e. ``shares.needed``) shares are retrieved. The default values are
333 3-of-10 (i.e. ``shares.needed = 3``, ``shares.total = 10``). Setting
334 ``k`` to 1 is equivalent to simple replication (uploading ``N`` copies of
337 These values control the tradeoff between storage overhead and
338 reliability. To a first approximation, a 1MB file will use (1MB *
339 ``N``/``k``) of backend storage space (the actual value will be a bit
340 more, because of other forms of overhead). Up to ``N``-``k`` shares can
341 be lost before the file becomes unrecoverable. So large ``N``/``k``
342 ratios are more reliable, and small ``N``/``k`` ratios use less disk
343 space. ``N`` cannot be larger than 256, because of the 8-bit
344 erasure-coding algorithm that Tahoe-LAFS uses. ``k`` can not be greater
345 than ``N``. See performance.rst_ for more details.
347 ``shares.happy`` allows you control over how well to "spread out" the
348 shares of an immutable file. For a successful upload, shares are
349 guaranteed to be initially placed on at least ``shares.happy`` distinct
350 servers, the correct functioning of any ``k`` of which is sufficient to
351 guarantee the availability of the uploaded file. This value should not be
352 larger than the number of servers on your grid.
354 A value of ``shares.happy`` <= ``k`` is allowed, but this is not
355 guaranteed to provide any redundancy if some servers fail or lose shares.
356 It may still provide redundancy in practice if ``N`` is greater than
357 the number of connected servers, because in that case there will typically
358 be more than one share on at least some storage nodes. However, since a
359 successful upload only guarantees that at least ``shares.happy`` shares
360 have been stored, the worst case is still that there is no redundancy.
362 (Mutable files use a different share placement algorithm that does not
363 currently consider this parameter.)
365 ``mutable.format = sdmf or mdmf``
367 This value tells Tahoe-LAFS what the default mutable file format should
368 be. If ``mutable.format=sdmf``, then newly created mutable files will be
369 in the old SDMF format. This is desirable for clients that operate on
370 grids where some peers run older versions of Tahoe-LAFS, as these older
371 versions cannot read the new MDMF mutable file format. If
372 ``mutable.format`` is ``mdmf``, then newly created mutable files will use
373 the new MDMF format, which supports efficient in-place modification and
374 streaming downloads. You can overwrite this value using a special
375 mutable-type parameter in the webapi. If you do not specify a value here,
376 Tahoe-LAFS will use SDMF for all newly-created mutable files.
378 Note that this parameter applies only to files, not to directories.
379 Mutable directories, which are stored in mutable files, are not
380 controlled by this parameter and will always use SDMF. We may revisit
381 this decision in future versions of Tahoe-LAFS.
383 See mutable.rst_ for details about mutable file formats.

389 Frontend Configuration
390 ======================
392 The Tahoe client process can run a variety of frontend file-access protocols.
393 You will use these to create and retrieve files from the virtual filesystem.
394 Configuration details for each are documented in the following
395 protocol-specific guides:
399 Tahoe runs a webserver by default on port 3456. This interface provides a
400 human-oriented "WUI", with pages to create, modify, and browse
401 directories and files, as well as a number of pages to check on the
402 status of your Tahoe node. It also provides a machine-oriented "WAPI",
403 with a REST-ful HTTP interface that can be used by other programs
404 (including the CLI tools). Please see webapi.rst_ for full details, and
405 the ``web.port`` and ``web.static`` config variables above. The
406 `download-status.rst`_ document also describes a few WUI status pages.
410 The main "bin/tahoe" executable includes subcommands for manipulating the
411 filesystem, uploading/downloading files, and creating/running Tahoe
412 nodes. See CLI.rst_ for details.
416 Tahoe can also run both SFTP and FTP servers, and map a username/password
417 pair to a top-level Tahoe directory. See FTP-and-SFTP.rst_ for
418 instructions on configuring these services, and the ``[sftpd]`` and
419 ``[ftpd]`` sections of ``tahoe.cfg``.
423 As of Tahoe-LAFS v1.9.0, a node running on Linux can be configured to
424 automatically upload files that are created or changed in a specified
425 local directory. See drop-upload.rst_ for details.

430 .. _drop-upload.rst: frontends/drop-upload.rst
433 Storage Server Configuration
434 ============================
438 ``enabled = (boolean, optional)``
440 If this is ``True``, the node will run a storage server, offering space
441 to other clients. If it is ``False``, the node will not run a storage
442 server, meaning that no shares will be stored on this node. Use ``False``
443 for clients who do not wish to provide storage service. The default value
446 ``readonly = (boolean, optional)``
448 If ``True``, the node will run a storage server but will not accept any
449 shares, making it effectively read-only. Use this for storage servers
450 that are being decommissioned: the ``storage/`` directory could be
451 mounted read-only, while shares are moved to other servers. Note that
452 this currently only affects immutable shares. Mutable shares (used for
453 directories) will be written and modified anyway. See ticket `#390`_ for
454 the current status of this bug. The default value is ``False``.
456 ``reserved_space = (str, optional)``
458 If provided, this value defines how much disk space is reserved: the
459 storage server will not accept any share that causes the amount of free
460 disk space to drop below this value. (The free space is measured by a
461 call to ``statvfs(2)`` on Unix, or ``GetDiskFreeSpaceEx`` on Windows, and
462 is the space available to the user account under which the storage server
465 This string contains a number, with an optional case-insensitive scale
466 suffix, optionally followed by "B" or "iB". The supported scale suffixes
467 are "K", "M", "G", "T", "P" and "E", and a following "i" indicates to use
468 powers of 1024 rather than 1000. So "100MB", "100 M", "100000000B",
469 "100000000", and "100000kb" all mean the same thing. Likewise, "1MiB",
470 "1024KiB", "1024 Ki", and "1048576 B" all mean the same thing.
472 "``tahoe create-node``" generates a tahoe.cfg with
473 "``reserved_space=1G``", but you may wish to raise, lower, or remove the
474 reservation to suit your needs.
480 ``expire.override_lease_duration =``
482 ``expire.cutoff_date =``
484 ``expire.immutable =``
488 These settings control garbage collection, in which the server will
489 delete shares that no longer have an up-to-date lease on them. Please see
490 garbage-collection.rst_ for full details.
492 .. _#390: https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/390
493 .. _garbage-collection.rst: garbage-collection.rst
499 A "helper" is a regular client node that also offers the "upload helper"
504 ``enabled = (boolean, optional)``
506 If ``True``, the node will run a helper (see helper.rst_ for details).
507 The helper's contact FURL will be placed in ``private/helper.furl``, from
508 which it can be copied to any clients that wish to use it. Clearly nodes
509 should not both run a helper and attempt to use one: do not create
510 ``helper.furl`` and also define ``[helper]enabled`` in the same node.
511 The default is ``False``.
514 Running An Introducer
515 =====================
517 The introducer node uses a different ``.tac`` file (named
518 "``introducer.tac``"), and pays attention to the ``[node]`` section, but not
521 The Introducer node maintains some different state than regular client nodes.
523 ``BASEDIR/private/introducer.furl``
525 This is generated the first time the introducer node is started, and used
526 again on subsequent runs, to give the introduction service a persistent
527 long-term identity. This file should be published and copied into new
528 client nodes before they are started for the first time.
531 Other Files in BASEDIR
532 ======================
534 Some configuration is not kept in ``tahoe.cfg``, for the following reasons:
536 * it is generated by the node at startup, e.g. encryption keys. The node
537 never writes to ``tahoe.cfg``.
538 * it is generated by user action, e.g. the "``tahoe create-alias``" command.
540 In addition, non-configuration persistent state is kept in the node's base
541 directory, next to the configuration knobs.
543 This section describes these other files.
547 This contains an SSL private-key certificate. The node generates this the
548 first time it is started, and re-uses it on subsequent runs. This
549 certificate allows the node to have a cryptographically-strong identifier
550 (the Foolscap "TubID"), and to establish secure connections to other nodes.
554 Nodes that host StorageServers will create this directory to hold shares of
555 files on behalf of other clients. There will be a directory underneath it
556 for each StorageIndex for which this node is holding shares. There is also
557 an "incoming" directory where partially-completed shares are held while
558 they are being received.
562 This file defines the client, by constructing the actual Client instance
563 each time the node is started. It is used by the "``twistd``" daemonization
564 program (in the ``-y`` mode), which is run internally by the "``tahoe
565 start``" command. This file is created by the "``tahoe create-node``" or
566 "``tahoe create-client``" commands.
568 ``tahoe-introducer.tac``
570 This file is used to construct an introducer, and is created by the
571 "``tahoe create-introducer``" command.
573 ``tahoe-key-generator.tac``
575 This file is used to construct a key generator, and is created by the
576 "``tahoe create-key-gernerator``" command.
578 ``tahoe-stats-gatherer.tac``
580 This file is used to construct a statistics gatherer, and is created by the
581 "``tahoe create-stats-gatherer``" command.
583 ``private/control.furl``
585 This file contains a FURL that provides access to a control port on the
586 client node, from which files can be uploaded and downloaded. This file is
587 created with permissions that prevent anyone else from reading it (on
588 operating systems that support such a concept), to insure that only the
589 owner of the client node can use this feature. This port is intended for
590 debugging and testing use.
592 ``private/logport.furl``
594 This file contains a FURL that provides access to a 'log port' on the
595 client node, from which operational logs can be retrieved. Do not grant
596 logport access to strangers, because occasionally secret information may be
599 ``private/helper.furl``
601 If the node is running a helper (for use by other clients), its contact
602 FURL will be placed here. See helper.rst_ for more details.
604 ``private/root_dir.cap`` (optional)
606 The command-line tools will read a directory cap out of this file and use
607 it, if you don't specify a '--dir-cap' option or if you specify
610 ``private/convergence`` (automatically generated)
612 An added secret for encrypting immutable files. Everyone who has this same
613 string in their ``private/convergence`` file encrypts their immutable files
614 in the same way when uploading them. This causes identical files to
615 "converge" -- to share the same storage space since they have identical
616 ciphertext -- which conserves space and optimizes upload time, but it also
617 exposes file contents to the possibility of a brute-force attack by people
618 who know that string. In this attack, if the attacker can guess most of the
619 contents of a file, then they can use brute-force to learn the remaining
622 So the set of people who know your ``private/convergence`` string is the
623 set of people who converge their storage space with you when you and they
624 upload identical immutable files, and it is also the set of people who
625 could mount such an attack.
627 The content of the ``private/convergence`` file is a base-32 encoded
628 string. If the file doesn't exist, then when the Tahoe-LAFS client starts
629 up it will generate a random 256-bit string and write the base-32 encoding
630 of this string into the file. If you want to converge your immutable files
631 with as many people as possible, put the empty string (so that
632 ``private/convergence`` is a zero-length file).
640 Each Tahoe-LAFS node creates a directory to hold the log messages produced
641 as the node runs. These logfiles are created and rotated by the
642 "``twistd``" daemonization program, so ``logs/twistd.log`` will contain the
643 most recent messages, ``logs/twistd.log.1`` will contain the previous ones,
644 ``logs/twistd.log.2`` will be older still, and so on. ``twistd`` rotates
645 logfiles after they grow beyond 1MB in size. If the space consumed by
646 logfiles becomes troublesome, they should be pruned: a cron job to delete
647 all files that were created more than a month ago in this ``logs/``
648 directory should be sufficient.
652 this is written by all nodes after startup, and contains a base32-encoded
653 (i.e. human-readable) NodeID that identifies this specific node. This
654 NodeID is the same string that gets displayed on the web page (in the
655 "which peers am I connected to" list), and the shortened form (the first
656 few characters) is recorded in various log messages.
660 Gateway nodes may find it necessary to prohibit access to certain
661 files. The web-API has a facility to block access to filecaps by their
662 storage index, returning a 403 "Forbidden" error instead of the original
663 file. For more details, see the "Access Blacklist" section of
670 The following is a sample ``tahoe.cfg`` file, containing values for some of
671 the keys described in the previous section. Note that this is not a
672 recommended configuration (most of these are not the default values), merely

701 Old Configuration Files
702 =======================
704 Tahoe-LAFS releases before v1.3.0 had no ``tahoe.cfg`` file, and used
705 distinct files for each item. This is no longer supported and if you have
706 configuration in the old format you must manually convert it to the new
707 format for Tahoe-LAFS to detect it. See `historical/configuration.rst`_.
