The config files installed with gnunet are the default settings.
You can overwrite them using "gnunet-config" or manually in your gnunet.conf

With some more looking around in the documentation, I realized I was
missing a peer configuration. Configured one, and everything seems to be
working as expected.

But, I still have a question (maybe I'll clear it up with more reading),
what exactly are those peer configurations for in
`$PREFIX/share/gnunet/config.d/*`, are they 'templates' for what to add
in your own configuration of the peer? Like, adding functionality for
messaging or filesharing and so on?

ALso, I tried to check the logs with `tail -f ~/.cache/gnunet/*` and it
provided the following output:

Hopefully that helps with figuring out the issue.

Hello everyone!

I have been recently trying to use the gnunet to see what the network
looks like, but following the User Manual and the steps on the website,
I am unable to proceed further.

Firstly, I start with `gnunet-arm -s` and then check peers using
`gnunet-peerinfo` and `gnunet-core`, both respond with nothing.

How can I proceed further in using the gnunet?

Divya.

Indeed, I just didn't create a peer. Creating a peer and configuring it and then running `gnunet-arm -c peer_location -s worked.
