I'm runnung Ubuntu 12.04.2
I tried to follow the instructions below but I don't know how to compile it.
I don't know how to run it to get the "rpcuser and pass that is generated on the screen"
I'm new to linux, so it might be to hard to explain it to me...
but thanks for trying
A lot of people are asking me about this so - for Ubuntu 12 +
Go to
http://novacoin.org/install/ and follow the instructions substitute libdb4.8++-dev for libdb5.3++-dev for Ubuntu 12.10 +
Next sudo apt-get install bitcoind to load the rest of the libs you need.
Then git clone the client. In this instance git clone
https://github.com/pocopoco/yacoin.gitEdit net.cpp in yacoin/src on line 28 and change
static const int MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS = 8;
to
static const int MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS = 1000; <--- or whatever you want 200 is probably a bit more conservative
Once compiled run the client and set the yacoin.conf
to do that run editor /home/"YOURUSERNAME"/.yacoin/yacoin.conf and copy the rpcuser and pass that is generated on the screen
Then run the client in daemon mode. ./yacoind -daemon -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212
Then you can run the commands from here
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_listto check the state. The only one you really need is ./yacoind getstatus
P.S. since 82.211.30.212 is in the EU, it would help to run a VPN etc that is in or near Germany...
