i’m using digitalocean so i would use that?

5

I don’t know anything about them. I would think they would have emailed you the IP or you could find it in your account on their site

6

are you an ADmin that can help. literally just setting up my masternode on the wallet havent even connected my digital ocean acct to it yet

7

You will need to purchase your VPS and then you’ll be able to figure out its IP address. You will then be able to fill out your masternode.conf file

Follow this guide exactly and you should be set - https://medium.com/@syscoin/syscoin-4-masternodes-setup-guide-d120bd3b6bd4

is that my public ssh keys?

11

how do i use my masternode genkey to get my masternode private key?

12

so in the discord group. i was told the masternode privte Key goes here. The steps does not say that only the vps ip address. 2ndly after the ip address :8369 where does this come from? i see in the masternode list alot of masternodes are setup like that. how do i find my number to input

13

Yes it’s your masternode genkey/privkey. Same thing. You just need to add the :8369 behind your IP address.

14

The masternode.conf tells you the format and what things are but it can be confusing if the window isn’t maximized so everything is on the same line

15

i’m using digital ocean, the ip address keeps changing is it ok to use any ip address it generates?

16

You need a static IP address so as long as it doesn’t change after you set it up it’s fine

17

i’m adding :8369 in the masternode.config file?

18
