I've blogged about this project today in German: http://altcoinspekulant.wordpress.com/2014/04/02/next-horizon-nhz-erster-funktionierender-nxt-klon/

I have around 21.000 views per month.

It would be great if I can receive a bounty for this
NHZ:  8289174766484945584

Of course sir. That deserves a bounty. 40 000 sent.

http://nhzcrypto.org up with some basic info - if you're missing something ask here and it will be added.

it's a bit difficult for us to know which additional information is needed when we're directly at the source

I have put together the following guide to help people that are new to NHZ to setup an account and hallmarked server node.

     This is the first draft, so please let me know if any corrections or additions are needed

The following steps provide an overview of getting starting with NHZ and setting up a Hallmarked server Node.

• Step 1 - Install Java 7
• Step 2 - Add you public IP Address to conf file
• Step 3 - Run the NHZ server
• Step 4 - Create NHZ Account
• Step 5 - Create your Node Hallmark
• Step 6 - Update the NHZ server conf file with Hallmark
• Step 7 - Open Port 7774
• Step 8 - Run the Hallmarked NHZ server

See below for detailed instructions for each step…

Step 1 - Install Java 7

• (Linux Users)         Type "apt-get install openjdk-7-jre" in a Terminal Window
• (Windows Users)    Download Java 7 from http://www.java.com/en/download/
• Unzip the file

Step 2 - Add you public IP Address to conf file

• Open the nhz_v2.1/conf/nhz-default.properties file for editing
• Update the "nhz.myAddress=" parameter with your Public IP Address and save

          

Step 3 - Run the NHZ server

• Open a Terminal Window
• Navigate to the nhz_v2.1 directory
• (Linux Users)         Type "./run.sh" in the Terminal Window
• (Windows Users)    Type "run.bat" in the Terminal Window

Step 4 - Create NHZ Account

• Open a browser window and enter "localhost:7775" as the address

          

• Click on the lock icon in the upper left corner of the browser
• Enter your Secrect Passphrase into the Account Dialog and hit <enter>, (or click the "unlock account" button)

          

         It is strongly urged that your passphrase is at least 20 characters and made up of random words and numbers.  It will be stored on a shared server and it is in your best interest to make it a difficult to crack as possible.

• Your account number is displayed in the upper left

          

Step 5 - Create your Node Hallmark

• Open a browser window and enter "localhost:7776/admin.html" as the address

          

• Enter your Public IP Address and Secret Phrase, then click the "Submit" button
• Your custom Hallmark will be displayed beneath the Submit button

          

Step 6 - Update the NHZ server conf file with Hallmark

• Open the nhz_v2.1/conf/nhz-default.properties file for editing
• Update the "nhz.myHallmark=" parameter with the Hallmark generated in Step 5 and save

          

Step 7 - Open Port 7774

• (Linux Users)         Type "iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -d 0/0 -s 0/0 --dport 7774 -j ACCEPT" in a Terminal Window
• (Windows Users)    Varies depending on your router instructions

Step 8 - Run the Hallmarked NHZ server

• If the server is still running from Step 3, shut it down
• Restart the server using the same instructions as Step 3

          Note: If you want the server to run as a background process, you can modify the contents of run.sh to read "nohup java -cp nhz.jar:lib/*:conf nhz.Nhz &"

That's it...you should now be setup as a Hallmarked Server Node.

Nice guide... well written.

[WayToGo]

I'm running a node since > 36h and still didn't receive any coins

My understanding is that there was an issue with some of the hallmarks not getting broadcast to all the nodes (happened to me as well).  They are in the process of fixing it.

Any idea if this is fixed or not?
I am running for more than 24hrs now and still didnt recieve anything.

[WayToGo]

Is said "soon", so maybe we should wait a little bit and expect the site to be up with the info in the next few days

Ahh my bad.. i skipped that bit. 
Will wait for it then.

Thanks.

The issue with the hallmarks is not solved yet, but we think we have found the reason and are working on it.
To make it even worse something went completely wrong with the bounty script - all payouts are halted until tomorrow.

Please excuse the inconvenience. We promise to make up for it!

Thanks for the reply.
No problem with me as I can wait.
Update the thread, when the problem is fixed, so that we can make sure it is working correctly from our end.

Nice guide, but it doesn't seem to work for me. I still cant seem to connect to localhost:7774.

Whats the problem you are getting now? I can try to help.

[casacup]

If the dev confirm to me that the guide is correct I'll translate it for the italian topic

[shinep]

Looks interesting...I will give it a go later.

[haggis]

I can translate it to german if there is a need for it!

[romawi]

I have translated Hallmark Guide into german and

I cannot connect to localhost:7774.

Whenever I try to, I just get the following:
HTTP ERROR: 405

Problem accessing /. Reason:

    HTTP method GET is not supported by this URL

I believe port 7774 is only for the nodes to communicate together.  You should only need to access port 7775 to view your account, or 7776 for the admin tools using the browser.

spot on.
You have to use either http://localhost:7775 for creating an account and
http://localhost:7776/admin.html for generating the hallmark.

That is what I have been doing. The real problem is that others cannot connect to my node.
