user. Make sure you are in root
directory.

cd /root
apt-get install wget -y
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Moondex/moondex_sentinel/master/moondexcoin_mn.sh
chmod 740 moondexcoin_mn.sh
./moondexcoin_mn.sh
Grab a tea because it will take some time. Wait until the following is printed to the console: Job completed successfully
. It will also print masternode private key as: Masternode private key:
.
Copy that somewhere, you will use it later.
Once your 2500 MDEX transaction is confirmed
Go to Tools → Debug Console
In text box below run the following command
masternode outputs
It should print something like this:
{ “werdf5a539ea889sgs434287ce8hyy6s5rqf1p12bbb58ac8uusy2eb8177”:“1” }
The long string is the transaction id of your payment and the number is transaction index. Save them too, you will use them shortly.
Note that transaction id and index number do not contain quotes. In the example above transaction id is: werdf5a539ea889sgs434287ce8hyy6s5rqf1p12bbb58ac8uusy2eb8177 .
Go to Tools → Masternode configuration file. It will open your masternode config file.
In a new line type your masternode data, the syntax is as following:
alias vps_ip:8906 masternode_priv_key trx_id_of_your_payment trx_index
You can copy paste the line above and replace with your own ip, privkey, transaction id and index. Note that each data is separated by space, so do not introduce any space yourself. For example, giving the following alias is wrong.
My alias
Remember that transaction id and index do not contain any quotes
The final output should look something like:
mn1 100.121.32.112:8906 1erew5a539ea889sgs434287ce8hyy6s5r222bbb58ac8uusy2eb8177 werdf5a539ea889sgs434287ce8hyy6s5rqf1p12bbb58ac8uusy2eb8177 1
Save and close the config file. Restart the wallet.
Go to «Masternodes» tab (Settings → Options → Wallet → Show Masternodes Tab). You should see your configured masternode as missing. Click on Start Missing
, give your passphrase and confirm.
Now you should see your masternode as PRE_ENABLED
or ENABLED
If so, you are all set. It will start getting rewards in around 24 hours.
Happy Collecting your Masternode Rewards!
