network from scratch

Following
doc/handbook/html/users/configuration.html#configuring-the-friend-to-friend-f2f-mode,
here's what I am trying to do:

1. Start peer A
2. Start peer B.
3. B connects to HTTP hostlist service, gets info for peer A.
4. B makes p2p connection to A.


What happens instead:

A only gives B a single peer; Y924NSHMMZ1N1SQCE5TXF93ED6S6JY311K0QT86G9WJC68F6XVZ0

Configuration excerpt:

[hostlist]
SERVERS =
OPTIONS = -p

[topology]
FRIENDS-ONLY = YES
FRIENDS = .../friends.txt
MINIMUM-FRIENDS = 1

# peer A
[hostlist]
SERVERS =
OPTIONS = -p

# peer B
[hostlist]
SERVERS = http://localhost:8080
#OPTIONS = -b


I tried feeding the output of gnunet-dht-hello into gnunet-dht-hello
<peer> on both peers, but it did not help. That was just a wild stab, and I can't see
any other obvious likely ways of manually instructing a peer connection.


Three questions:

- how to explicitly connect to a known host?
- is it expected behavior that the peer running the hostlist should not
  peer on information about itself? Shouldn't there at least be an
  option for that?
- is it right that you always get peer
  Y924NSHMMZ1N1SQCE5TXF93ED6S6JY311K0QT86G9WJC68F6XVZ0 no matter what?


thanks,
