monerod
monerod
is the daemon software that ships with the Monero tree. It is a console program, and manages the blockchain. While a bitcoin wallet manages both an account and the blockchain, Monero separates these: monerod
handles the blockchain, and monero-wallet-cli
handles the account.
This guide assumes you have already set up your VPS account and are using SSH to tunnel into the server console.
Linux, 64-bit (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS)
Make sure that port 18080 is open
monerod
uses this port to communicate with other nodes on the Monero network.
Example if using ufw
: sudo ufw allow 18080
Example if using iptables
: sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 18080 -j ACCEPT
Download the current Monero Core binaries
wget https://downloads.getmonero.org/linux64
Make a directory and extract the files.
mkdir monero
tar -xjvf linux64 -C monero
Launch the daemon
cd monero
./monerod
Options:
Show list of all options and settings:
./monerod --help
Launch the daemon as a background process:
./monerod --detach
Monitor the output of monerod
if running as daemon:
tail -f ~/.bitmonero/bitmonero.log
Keep the VPS secure with autoupdate:
