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"?
it seems like most people are looking down all but port 9999, but SSH shouldn't be a problem. i think I remember reading that it was possible to have your 1kDRK stored in a different wallet keeping them 'safer'?
So your hosting is with AWS or is it your own machine? I'm looking at running a masternode with near future too
You can store the 1k on a different machine, but the wallet with the 1k in it has to stay online for now. Cold storage is not implemented yet. But AFAIK it's planned
