The configuration file reference is here:

To run bitcoind you should just be able to extract the files and run ./bitcoind for the bin/[32/64] directory.
It will take quite a while to download the block chain to get up and running.
Once you start it type ./bitcoind getinfo and should get a response.
Topic: How on earth do I install bitcoind on my debian server? (Read 6023 times)
Your wallet has been created on first launch.
Now, try : bitcoind help
Now, try : bitcoind help
There is literally no instructional guide on how to set up bitcoind on a server. I've tried for around 30 minutes now and I have no idea what I'm doing.
So far I installed the package.
and every single command other than "bitcoind -?" just returns with "bitcoind can not obtain a lock of data entry" "bitcoin is probably already running"
I understand that bicoin is running, but how do I know what is it doing? How do I set this up? What does this even do? Does it send funds or does it create its own wallet? What is going on?
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!
