Im using this tutorial trying to configure a masternode:
https://masternodeguides.com/setup-syndicate-masternode-synx-masternodes/I already got a SSH key configured on the server, so I dont understand why I have to use this commands:
Now change to user synx and setup SSH keys for enhanced Security.
su synx
ssh-keygen -b 4096
cd .ssh
cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys
Now save the private key id_rsa to your clients computer so you can authenticate to the server with the SSH Certificate. (You must convert id_rsa to a .ppk file in order to use the privatekey with Putty)
Restart the SSH Server and test if the authentication with the private key works.
sudo service ssh restart
If it works, edit the SSH config file to disable password authentication & root login.
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Change following Values in the file.
PasswordAuthentication no
UsePAM no
PermitRootLogin no
I can skip these commands??
You can skip, not recommended... the commands are about security concerns _ONLY_
Another problem I have is when I insert this command "sudo nano ~/.Syndicate/Syndicate.conf"
Key In a User Name for RPC access (preferably not your computer username) and press [ENTER]:
Key In a LONG RANDOM PASSWORD for the above user and press[ENTER]:
Key In the port your want the RPC to listen on press[ENTER]:
Key In the port your want the SYNX Daemon to listen on press
This info isnt on the tutorial, wich number of port I have to use?
