====== Monero Node ======
A device on the Internet running the Monero software, with a full copy of the Monero blockchain, actively assisting the Monero network. A node that is not running on your local machine is called remote node. Remote nodes can be private, if they are for personal use only, or open, if they are accessible by other people.

Systemanforderungen: 
    * 2 VCPUs
    * 4 GB RAM
    * 200 GB SSD

===== A new Monero User =====
----
First we wanna create a new monero user
<code>
useradd monero
passwd monero             <- give monero user a password
</code>

Login with monero and install necessary Software

<code>
pacman -S ufw wget 
</code>

Open port 18081
<code>
sudo ufw allow 18081
</code>

Install and extract the monero full node:
<code>
wget https://downloads.getmonero.org/linux64           <- Latest stuff 
tar --strip-components= -xvjf linux64                  <- extract
mv monero/monerod /usr/bin/                            <- move monerod to global 
</code>

\\
===== Monerod Configurations =====
----
Create a new configuration file with ''%%nano /etc/monerod.conf%%'' and add the official config file from [[https://github.com/monerodocs/md/blob/master/docs/interacting/monero-config-file.md|github/monero]] or mine:
<code>
# Configuration file for monerod
# See 'monerod --help' for all available options.

# Binding your node & set username and password
rpc-bind-ip=0.0.0.0
rpc-bind-port=18081             
confirm-external-bind=1
rpc-login=username:password

# Set the blockchain directory
data-dir=/var/lib/monero
log-file=/var/log/monero/monero.log
log-level=0

# Slow but reliable db-settings
db-sync-mode=safe
limit-rate-up=1048576
limit-rate-down=1048576

# Prune Blockchain in order to speed up the process
prune-blockchain=true
sync-pruned-blocks=true
</code>

At last give the monero user the rights to execute
<code>
chown -R monero:monero /var/lib/monero
chown -R monero:monero /var/log/monero
</code>

\\
===== Monerod als Service einrichten ======
----
Erstelle ein neues Service-Skript in ''%%/etc/init.d/monerod%%'':
<code>
nano /etc/init.d/monerod
</code>

Füge folgenden Inhalt ein:
<code>
#!/sbin/openrc-run
# Autostart monero daemon with configuration from monero.conf

command="monerod"
command_args="--detach --config-file=/etc/monerod.conf""

pidfile="/var/run/monerod.pid"
</code>

Starte den Monero-Daemon und adde ihn als autostart
<code>
rc-service monerod start
rc-update add monerod default
</code>

\\
===== Wallet Login =====
----
After that make your IP Visible with the command:
<code>
ip -4 addr show | grep inet
</code>

Then Login in your monero-wallet-gui with your credentials: 
  * IP: 123.45.6.7.89
  * Port: 18081
  * Username: user
  * Passwort: password
