I have one question.
Wasn't there a problems running NXT software on VPS because of security risk?
I remember in the long locked thread people were advised to not keep the wallet open and forge on VPS
as this was described as insecure.
Can someone deny (clarify) this?
Thanks.
There is some risk, that's why I posted
a safe way of doing it Thanks I will mark your words.
Based on this I have more questions related to NXT or similar coin security.
The question is how securely implement a service based on NXT for example
a website for something would need to do automated payments to users.
To be able to send a payment the wallet needs to be unlocked with a password and
a transaction needs to be sent out.
If the website is hosted by some hosting provider does ti mean that the wallet needs to be
hosted there as well? The script php,asp,python or whatever needs to unlock the wallet
and send the API request.
How this kind of things should be implemented to avoid security risks where the passwords shoud be stored?!
I think anyone that has access to the hosting account or VPS account could hack this or not? what are you suggestions to avoid security risks?
Thanks.
