Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW

Ok guys, I am excited for the hard fork and masternode payments. However, I am a bit worried about the security of my wallet on server. Wallet has nice strong password, I have only port 22 open to my IP, 9999 open, and 2FA setup for Amazon Web Services. Should I be ok?

I think so.
Although I have no idea about clearing bash history so it doesn't store the wallet pw on it from when we ran "darkcoind masternode start 'mypassword"?

Clear bash history with

Code:

cd ~/
ln -sf /dev/null .bash_history

Masternode question:

When I start the masternode with

Code:

darkcoind masternode start mypassphrase

can I then shut the terminal window? I am worried about the wallet passphrase being there in plain sight.

Plus what happens if/when my local box goes offline for whatever reason, does the masternode persist?

Apologies for noobness at this.

And is there a site that lists masternodes, so I can see from elsewhere that it's up and running?

Thanks.

This works on linux:

darkcoind masternode start `head -1`

Type your password on the next line. If you do it this way the history will show 'head -1' instead of your password.
