<h1>Welcome to your eepsite</h1>
<p>This is your eepsite - simply edit the files under ./eepsite/docroot/

and they'll be reachable by others once you follow the instructions below.
In I2P, eepsites are addressed using a 'key', which is represented as a really long Base64 string.
(The 'key' is somewhat analogous to an IP address, and
is shown on the eepsite's I2PTunnel
<a href="http://localhost:7657/i2ptunnel/edit.jsp?tunnel=3">configuration page</a>).
The instructions below detail how to assign a name like "mysite.i2p" to your key and
start up your eepsite.</p>
<p>You can also reach your eepsite locally through
<a href="http://localhost:7658/">http://localhost:7658/</a>. If you
want to change the port number, edit the file ./eepsite/jetty.xml and
update the I2PTunnel configuration accordingly.</p>

Your eepsite is stopped by default.
After you start it, it will be difficult for other people to find because it
doesn't have a name and they don't have your really long Base64 key.
You could just tell people that really long key but thankfully i2p has an address book
and several easy ways to tell people about your eepsite. Here's detailed instructions.
