If you imaged the first machine after creating the base directory for
the Tahoe-LAFS node, this might not work properly. The problem is that
the nodes will all have the same tubid, private key, etc., so they won't
be distinguishable as separate nodes. You need to create each node using
a separate 'tahoe create-node' command, unfortunately.
