is it a bad idea to setup a masternode on windows 7 ?
with unnecesasary services turned off and firewall + antivirus installed.
Please please please do it. You will have given me 1000 DRK within 2 weeks of you launching it. I'm not even a little bit joking. The number of attack vectors I would have is unreal. Not as bad as say running a MN on win xp (god forbid...), but still. So basically no one should even run their standard wallets on windows 7? So much for going mainstream.  No there is an incredibly large difference. With a masternode I know a few very important pieces of information. I have a target which I am 100% confident has 1000 DRK at a minimum. And I have an IP address at which those DRK reside. That is very different than any old wallet. I have no way of linking an IP address to a high value wallet for sure. And an IP addresses I do know have a darkcoin wallet on them, I have no idea how much is on it, and to me, my time is incredibly valuable. Spending 20 hours attacking one wallet to get 2 DRK is not worth it. For 1000? Absolutely. is it a bad idea to setup a masternode on windows 7 ?

He's talking nonsense and pretending like he knows a lot, while he actually does not. The idea is not bad or good. You would have to work hard and set it up correctly so that you won't get attacked IMO. There is no way for him to get 1000 DRK within 2 weeks even if he hacked you. I am not talking nonsense and I can assure you, I know exactly what I am talking about. Why you would lie and give a user false sense of security is beyond me. I'm hoping it is out of your ignorance, not malice. Yes, a windows 7 server absolutely could be setup to be secure, even if it was the main computer you used. But now let's be really honest, if someone is asking about setting up a node on their win 7 desktop, do you really think they are capable of doing that? Absolutely not. There security implications go so much further beyond just getting hacked, by hosting your node on a residential connection and not in a data center, a nefariousness person could find you. Social engineering is a very real thing and works much better than hacking. So now, the hacker has your home address and location of the server. Fuck trying to hack you, they'll just drive to your house and rob you. Or, park out front, grab your wifi key, send it to a cloud GPU cluster to crack it, then because 9x.xx% of people don't change their router password (not wifi, the root router password) from the defaults, they could change your DNS servers to their own DNS servers and monitor your traffic. Then, when you went to an unencrypted site to download something, they would MITM attack you, directing you to their own server and feeding you a fake download link with a RAT. There are plenty of RATS which go 100% undetected, so your antivirus will do nothing. And you won't be the least be suspicious because the file you are downloading is from a trusted site. Or so you thought. And the thing of it is? If you spent $5 / month on a VPS and just ran your MN on a locked down linux server in a secure data center as recommended, none of that could have happened! |

Do not forget DDOS attack on that IP, it could make the MN to stay off the grid |

Hmmm but now with the cold wallet on your home pc, doesn't that change the situation? From what you are saying, maybe it is safer to keep the 1000 DRK on the VPS than on your home pc? Or what would be best? |

You can also configure CSF to prevent general DDOS attacks. Not super difficult.

Linux... you kidding? linux is vulnerable too. Win7 + Comodo = better than linux. (winXP + Comodo = better than Win7 + Comodo) PS: 1000 drk on a VPS .... double facepalm. |

Just use CSF to lockdown your MN. Very easy.
Can you use CSF on Ubuntu? On their homepage they mention supporting RedHat, CentOS, CloudLinux and Fedora. Also, can anyone give me a rundown of how to get darkcoin masternode working on Ubuntu? I have Ubuntu 32 bit on a VM but when following Chaeplin's guide I got stuck at the local part  I tried the same steps as for the EC2, but at step 9 (install darkcoin) but at : time make -f makefile.unix, something went wrong. Didn't check the response as I tried a few other things. Will try again on fresh install, not sure if I'm doing it right though. |

Linux without any security is ok? it's not ok  if the most part of the hackers are trying to hack windows is because most peoples are using windows. CIS (comodo internet security) include a firewall, antivirus, HIPS, ect, ect, personally i turn off the antivirus because i'm a malware's student, but firewall and HIPS is just amazing. |

Make sure you close all ports and turn it on. Testing = "0" Add your ip to CSF.allow. Edit: open port 9999 |

Malware student? contrix to Virus students? I mean I never understood this. I heard malware/adware/spyware was good shit to have. Truthfully I ended up with a lot of virus trying to download these stuff and at that time I didn't know about other virus programs detecting others as "threats". So it ended locking down half my disc making it impossible to work with. Since I my hate for preinstalled Norton's (dem bazzi'es needs to be uninstalled in the computers core, head, thumb, booger - rather making it not so easy for you to uninstall it.) I always went for AVG free versions. Never had any problems since. Can you elaborate shorty? |
