[tahoe-dev] Newbie problems

I will take responsibility for the pubgrid at tahoe.koo storage node assuming that's the online one you're referring to.

This node is behind Internet facing NAT (no port forwarding possible) and is now using pagekite to expose its tub port. If somebody else has a permanent pagekite proxy it can use then it may be able to stay online last past the 31 day free trial subscription.
