A new node needs to be created using 'tahoe create-client' (or
'tahoe create-node') for each instance. If the VM is cloned, then the
same key material and tub-id will be used for each node, which will
cause problems.

Only by restricting access to the introducer.furl, which controls which
servers (and other clients) can connect to the introducer.

If you're using the Debian tahoe-lafs package, the executable is
/usr/bin/tahoe.
