3. Install open-node-mining-portal

3.1 Get source

    git clone https://github.com/geekcash/node-open-mining-portal.git pool

Before run you must change some configuration — I use FileZilla to edit file thought SFTP

3.2 Change pool/config.json

goto /root/pool rename config_example.json to config.json
