Step by Step Setup for a ARC Maternode

Here you can create your own Virutal Linux Server https://www.vultr.com/?ref=7160524 2,99$ per month - Payment Methods: PayPal - CreditCard - Bitcoin

Vultr is a well known and professional Cloud Hosting company!

I used #ubuntu 16.04

apt-get update
apt-get install -y build-essential software-properties-common autoconf libssl-dev libboost-dev libboost-chrono-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-test-dev libboost-thread-dev sudo automake git

add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin -y
apt-get update
apt-get install libdb4.8-dev bsdmainutils libdb4.8++-dev -y

mkdir ~/arc
cd ~/arc
apt-get install wget nano -y
wget https://github.com/ArcticCore/arcticcoin/releases/download/v0.12.1.2/arcticcore-0.12.2-linux64.tar.gz
tar -xvf arcticcore-0.12.2-linux64.tar.gz
mv arcticcore-0.12.1/* ./
rm arcticcore-0.12.2-linux64.tar.gz
rm -r arcticcore-0.12.1/

cp ~/arc/bin/arcticcoind /usr/local/bin/
cp ~/arc/bin/arcticcoin-cli /usr/local/bin/
cp ~/arc/bin/arcticcoin-tx /usr/local/bin/

mkdir -p /root/.arcticcore
nano /root/.arcticcore/arcticcoin.conf
```
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=ASecurePasswordThatYouDontNeedToRemember
server=1
```

arcticcoind -daemon
arcticcoin-cli getinfo
arcticcoin-cli getnewaddress 0
=>

Save the output of the last command, this is the

you'll send your ARC to.

Send EXACTLY 1000 ARC this

(`1000.01` from cryptopia)

Then list transaction:
arcticcoin-cli listtransactions

and get the `txid`

```
arcticcoin-cli getbalance
=> 1000.00000000
```

```
arcticcoin-cli goldminenode genkey
=>
arcticcoin-cli stop
nano ~/.arcticcore/arcticcoin.conf
```

And change the file into:
```
server=1
listen=1
daemon=1
goldminenode=1
goldminenodeprivkey=
externalip=
```

Then:
```
arcticcoind -daemon

arcticcoin-cli goldminenode outputs
=> {
  "xxxx": "IDX"
}
```

Wait until your tx has 15 transactions (check with `arcticcoin-cli listtransactions`)

Note the "IDX" value and open the file `~/.arcticcore/goldminenode.conf`.

nano ~/.arcticcore/goldminenode.conf

Add the following line:
```
mn1 :7209
```

Then `arcticcoin-cli goldminenode start`.

Check your goldmine is connected by doing:

```
arcticcoin-cli goldminenode list | grep
  "TXID-IDX": "PRE_ENABLED"
```

After 20-30 min you should see:
```
arcticcoin-cli goldminenode list | grep
  "AAAAA-B": "ENABLED"
```

Have Fun with your Masternode ! Wink
