Tip

To test if the blockchain is completely downloaded & up-to-date, use:

dogecoin-1.14.3/bin/dogecoin-cli getblockcount

Compare the number returned with the number of “Blocks Count” from https://bitinfocharts.com/dogecoin/

Setup a secure tunnel for encrypted communication

...

.

Your CAS server and this node must have a secure line. Your passphrase and other sensitive information will be passed back & forth. Encrypt (and protect) this communication by using a secure SSH tunnel.

The GB Wallet Tunnel is recommended:

General Bytes has incorporated an open-source ssh SSH client into CAS.

Click here for instructions to install the GB Wallet Tunnel Server on this node.

ALTERNATE: to create a secure SSH tunnel between your CAS server and your node, use:

ssh -f -N -i /path/to/your/key -l <LOGIN_ID> -L 22555:127.0.0.1:22555 <NODE_IP>

do not use both a SSH Tunnel and Gb Wallet Tunnel

Alternative (unsupported):

Build an SSH tunnel (instead of the GB Wallet Tunnel), see: https://generalbytes.atlassian.net/l/cp/b7j5AVHA

  • For those instructions, set FORWARDED_PORT=22555
