Hi Mates,
please Update your Pool and Exchange. ( Wrong Fork @ minerpools)Setting up a masternode part 1 - WindowsWe will be using your home computer and a cloud vps server with ubuntu ($5 a month)
Create a new .txt file, we need to copy/paste a few codes/addresses
Start with a new wallet (0 balance) but first back up your old wallet.dat if you have coins in it
Open te QT, and make sure you have your firewall accepting connections from the Limecoinx QT
Let it sync up.
After you synced, go to Tools=>Debugconsole=>Console
Then typ :
masternode genkey Press enter
You will see a large code, copy this code to the .txt file for now. We need this code later on when we are setting up a new Limecoinx.conf file
Go back to your Wallet=>Tools=>Debugconsole=>Console
Then typ :
getaccountaddress 0This will give you a new Limecoinx address. Copy this address to the .txt file for now. We need this address later on to sent EXACTLY 5000 LIMX to it (more or less will not work!) so you are able to be a masternode
Next you need to encrypt your wallet! Make sure you think of a strong password!
Settings=>encrypt wallet
After doing that your wallet needs to restart.
(Example Server conf)
rpcuser=worker
rpcpassword=123fasdjnhfjkasdfkjandkjasndjnaldnalsndasd1231241324
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=32
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=7r6pasdasdasdasdHFPsFXpUH2eWyTOAE7QnN4CQkzZMf9Pj9vuz2
Alright, It is time to sent those 5000 Limecoinx to the "address 0" you copy/pasted in the .txt file. make sure it is EXACTLY 5000!!
If you have coins in your backed up wallet. Close down the Limecoinx QT and just switch your wallet.dat with the back up wallet.dat (the one with your coins in it
) make sure you dont remove or lose the other "masternode" one, just put it away somewhere else for a sec.
Restart the Limecoinx QT, Let it load, and you should see you have balance again from your backup wallet.
Send 5000 coins to the Limecoinx address we put in the .txt file earlier. Let it fully confirm in the blockchain.
Close the Limecoinx QT and swap the wallet.dat files again. You will now need the masternode wallet.dat file again.
Next, we need to make a new .conf file
(Your Client Remoute)
rpcuser=your-desired-username
rpcpassword=your-favourite-password
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
listen=0
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
masternode=1
masternodeprivkey=MasternodeGeneratedKey
masternodeaddr=UbuntuServerIP:8886
Change username/password
Replace the
MasternodeGeneratedKey with the one you copy/pasted in the .txt file
Save as Limecoinx.conf (we all know where to put this right?)
masternodeaddr=UbuntuServerIP:8886 Will be used in
Part 2.
