Enter this command masternode genkey
You should get back a masternode private key that looks like this 2ZzTpJ2smMzFcnJw2Ce1xzrZ3zsWSkSmyFvzLZwz2BxJ2H4V4NG copy that somewhere for later.
Use the wallet to send 5,000 BitF tokens to the account address you copied down from earlier. After the transaction has gone through find it in under the Transactions tab and double click on the transaction. Copy the Transaction ID and Output index # which you will need for the masternode.conf in the next step
Click Tools->Open Masternode Configuration File
Add a line at the bottom of file as the example shows above using the information you've copied down from previous steps.
yourmasternodename masternodeipaddress:7337 masternodeprivatekey transactionid transactionindex
which should look something like:
mn1 127.0.0.2:7337 93HaYBVUCYjEMeeH1Y4sBGLALQZE1Yc1K64xiqgX37tGBDQL8Xg 2bcd3c84c84f87eaa86e4e56834c92927a07f9e18718810b92e0d0324456a67c 0
Save the file.
Click Tools->Open Wallet Configuration File
Edit the file to look like the following but substitute your own username and password which can be anything you want.
rpcuser=madeupusername
rpcpassword=madeuppassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
port=7337
listen=0
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
Save the file. Restart the wallet. Now move on to setting up the linux vps.
Installing and Configuring a BitFd Masternode on Ubuntu
As a super user logged into your linux vps enter the following commands
sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool autotools-dev automake pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils git
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libboost*
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libdb4.8-dev libdb4.8++-dev
sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5 libqt5core5a libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler libzmq3-dev libminiupnpc-dev libqt4-dev libevent-pthreads-2.0-5
mkdir ~/.BitF
cd ~/.BitF
wget http://blockexplorer.bitf.cc/downloads/BitF-linux.tar.gz
tar -zxvf BitF-linux.tar.gz
chmod 755 *
create a BitF.conf file with your preferred text editor eg. nano BitF.conf or vi BitF.conf
Put in the following text making sure to substitute your masternode's IP address and masternode private key.
rpcuser=yourmadeusername
rpcpassword=yourmadepassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
server=1
daemon=1
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
masternode=1
externalip=your_ip_address_here
masternodeaddr=your_ip_address_here:7337
masternodeprivkey=your_private_key_here
Now startup the server with ./BitFd and you should see a message that says the server has started. You can watch what's going on using the command tail -f debug.log and ctrl+c to quit watching the log.
Enable the Masternode Remotely on Your Local
Go to the Masternodes tab in the wallet on your local machine. Right click on your masternode and click on Start alias. Click Ok on the dialog box.
Congratulations your masternode should now be enabled!
