Tahoe-LAFS Tips & Tricks
git-annex can use Tahoe-LAFS as a backend
Back caps/URIs up
Tahoe-LAFS users can encrypt their caps (new text file or ~/.tahoe/private/aliases) and upload it to Google Docs, which now accepts arbitrary file types.
Publish iCal calendars over Tahoe-LAFS
Automatic Tahoe-LAFS file repair
Host Bazaar repositories
Support for Tahoe-LAFS's FTP server has been merged into Bzr's mainline (#294709). It may be preferable to use SFTP, though.
Perforce backend storage
Running with supervisord
The only trick with supervisord is to make tahoe run as a single foreground process so it can be watched and killed correctly. Use a command like "bin/tahoe run -C /path/to/tahoe/home".
Using Pagekite to run storage nodes behind a NAT
Pagekite is an alternative to reverse-tunneling, especially if you don't have your own proxy and can't forward ports through your NAT. It's also a good way to set up multiple hostnames, any one of which can be used to access your node if the others go down.
