In order to join to Netsukuku you have to use NetsukukuD, which is the daemon
implementing the Npv7 protocol.
Before doing anything, please read the documentation in doc/ or in
http://netsukuku.freaknet.org
# Get the code!
$git clone git@github.com:Netsukuku/netsukuku.git
If that doesn't work, Try this!
$git clone https://github.com/Netsukuku/netsukuku.git
If even that doesn't work, Download the .zip from this page.
In order to join to Netsukuku, Just install it and run it! Connect as many

# Build and install
The dependencies of netsukuku can be gathered by running this command.
## Get the code!
# sudo apt-get install zlibc libgmp-dev openssl libssl-dev libgee-dev libpth-dev libgcrypt11-dev autoconf cmake autogen mawk gawk
git clone git@github.com:Netsukuku/netsukuku.git
To compile the code you can use scons or just go with the old school way:
The dependencies of netsukuku can be installed by running this command.
# autoreconf -i
# ./configure && make
# sudo make install
sudo apt-get install zlibc libgmp-dev openssl libssl-dev libgee-dev libpth-dev libgcrypt11-dev autoconf cmake autogen mawk gawk
But SCons is cooler:

(You should have installed at least the 2.4 version of Python in order to
avoid dirty bugs in scons)
To compile the code you can do this:
You can go to the libgmp/zlib/openssl websites below if you wish,
As they are dependenices of netsukuku.
autoreconf -i
./configure && make
sudo make install
## Once installed
In order to start netsukuku on eth0, It is preferred to run:
sudo ntkd -D -i eth0 -dd
CURRENTLY NON-FUNCTIONAL:
However, There are more options, Such as:
sudo ntkd -D -i eth0 -r -I -dd
This will run netsukuku in restricted mode and share your internet connection.
(Netsukuku should be able to use any network interface you have, Even VPNs that emulate ethernet
such as tinc.)
## Manual Dependencies
You can manually download the dependencies of netsukuku if you want,
Or use them for development.
