Thanks for the update raganius. Yes, I was trying to find co-admins to improve redundancy before I went on vacation. I am in talks with a couple of veteran node admins with experience about teaming up (and one of them went on vacation right before I did). This person wrote one of the guides that...

weirdgod or flare: can either of you expand on the steps you took for the -datadir "trick?" Got my first paying node set up but no I would like to set up multiple nodes from the same wallet.dat file from my local Windows PC without having to replace/remove wallet files.

One of the last steps to activate your masternode is to run the following DOS command: darkcoin-qt.exe -conf=C:\darkcoin\darkcoin.conf and then run a few console commands. I have multiple cold wallets and nodes ready to go. Are we supposed to continously overwrite the conf file and relaunch...

Yes, this is very concerning. It's our stake for our first node which was set up via the hot wallet method in RC2 (but the actual hot wallet part wasn't set up as SCP was failing in Putty). I had faith in the process that we'd be able to get our stake back easily. This was the transaction on 6/6...

Thanks for chiming in. I turned off the privkey and set masternode to 0 and stopped darkcoind. So, it should release the funds from mempool and send the 1000DRK back? So confused on this point. I sent the 1000DRK to the getaddress0 I generated on the REMOTE server (which might've been a...

At the point where you tie it together: I see this error when I go to start the node from Darkcoin wallet you must set masternode=1 in the configuration Hmm, it is set to 1 on both the remote server and in the local conf file. ??? Update: My derp problem was my local darkcoin.conf got a .txt...

tip sent. thanks!

Yes, I can stop the process. I just don't know/remember coming across the instructions on how to send the stake frunds from an RC2 server back to the wallet it came from. Got to the point where I was going to move the coins to cold storage and then I went: hmm, I don't recall seeing that. When...

The first node I set up, I used RC2 and sent it to the generated address from the remote server. Can someone please tell me the steps to turn off the node and remove the coins so that I can put that 1000DRK into cold storage? Can't seem to find this info... Thanks!

D Don't underestimate the board design. Problems with this have badly hurt Hashfast, Cointerra, Black Arrow, and KnC among others. It's not just enough to design and tapeout an ASIC. As we've unfortunately seen: board design is often underestimated or not given enough time/resources. At my...

Yes, it'd all be images on virtual hardware without having physical access to the DC. No way I could host servers here although I did briefly think about hosting the first node on an old laptop or netbook to get started. I may just need to get a base image going at OVH if I'm going to go that...

Thanks again for the response. Please post a DRK address so I can send a tip. I actually don't have a lot of free DRK at the moment having most of it tied up in our first node but I would like to send you DRK from my GPU for the useful reponses. I'm glad to be a community conduit to help set up...

I'm super busy. I'm completely booked for the near future with no ETA on the next Batch of community owned nodes (what would be Batch 4). Busy is a great thing, right? :) The only problem is I wish there were 28-30 hours in a day.

Thank you! This is definitely the type of feedback I was looking for. I hadn't even considered OVH, so I appreciate the lead. I really love your OVH server suggestion as you obviously considered vCPU and memory requirements. I had considered the other hosting options you discussed but I'm...

1. Agreed, for the most part. But don't toss the baby out w/ the bathwater. Not every hero or Sr. member is a bitter grognard telling teh kids to get off the lawn. Otoh and I are Bitcoin vets and we absolutely *love* Darkcoin and its potential. 2. Also agreed, for the most part. Again, please...

I'm looking into some options for scaling Masternodes. Let's say for example, I needed 30 static IP addresses for 30 nodes. For those facing this problem how did you deal with it? I'm looking at a mix of EC2 and may opt for Amazon VPC if I can figure out how to manage the static IP address...

Also: if you were interested, these are the last partial nodes (as in community nodes owned via partial stakes of 10 or 25% chunks) that I'll be setting up for a while, as I'm going to be busy setting up full nodes after the 20th.

Hey thanks for the plug! Propulsion just helped me get back on the site. Thanks man! I owe you a beer if you're ever on Kauai. My PW reset wasn't working regardless of the browser. I'm a veteran Network Engineer by day, and a Darkcoin fan at night (while thinking about it during the day). Some...

There was a piece yesterday in Wired talking specifically about Darkcoin so that's helped raise awareness. There was also a story in the Intl. Business Times. I'm a recent mining convert but I'm only using a 750TI at the moment. I started mining DRK because I needed to mine a little more...
