Hey guys I'm not too good with this kind of stuff. How do I set up remote harvesting so I can harvest with the wallet closed? Do I still need my computer on for that? Finally, is POI only important when harvesting? I just want to hold my stake for as long as I can like a savings, I'm not too keen on acquiring more, nor selling off for the foreseeable future. I may use the exchanges with a little just to play around, hoping it's not too pump and dump like most though Smiley. Any help would be appreciated, cheers.

Edit: Also how do I backup my wallet?

http://blog.nem.io/how-to-use-delegated-harvesting/

for backing up your wallet, get a USB key or some other type of storage and connect it to your computer, then go to "export wallet" in the options menu (the down arrow top right corner of the client) and then select a location on the USB or other removable storage device. you can also back it up onto another location on your computer but that sort of defeats the purpose of backing up your wallets. Cheesy

Thank you very much. So once delegated harvesting is active I can start it and shutdown my computer and come back to harvested blocks? Or do I still need to leave my computer on? Sorry if these are stupid questions.
