  To stop it again, use 'make stop-client'.  Similar makefile targets exist
  for making and running an introducer node.
 
+ If you are behind a firewall and you can configure your firewall to forward
+ TCP connections on a port to the computer running your Tahoe node, then you
+ can configure the Tahoe node to announce itself as being available on that
+ IP address and port.  The way to do this is to create a file named
+ $HERE/advertised_ip_addresses, in which you can put IP addresses and port numbers in
+ "dotted-quad:port" form, e.g. "209.97.232.113:1345".  You can put multiple
+ IP-address-and-port-number entries into this file, on separate lines.

  There is a public grid available for testing.  Look at the wiki page
  (http://allmydata.org) for the necessary .furl data.
