OK trying out the amazon free EC2 VPS... Now im no stranger to SSH key authentication, Ive got 12 VPS doing it now.  But this amazon shit dont work... it doesnt like the private key they gave me... Dont even see anywhere to go to ask them to reset it either.

what next?

I think you need to use "ubuntu" and not root if on Ubuntu. To standardize across different clouds, I create a nxt user, copy authorized_keys,  and don't use root/ubuntu user anymore.

What web.xml options add most to stability of NXT server? The stability problems could simply be from suboptimal web.xml settings.

Does the 0.5.3 install use the most stable options in web.xml?
Are there any other files that need to be tweaked?

I am thinking that a lot of the problems in the field could be related to having a wrong set of settings. We are so close to a stable NXT server. I updated my peers list and now it is not going brain dead. Still need more time, but looking good so far.

The only thing that was changed was the list of peers, but I remember seeing a bunch of different tweaks. Has anybody tested the effect of the different tweaks on NXT server stability. So much work has been put into NXT, it would be a shame if a new NXT'er gets a bad experience due to suboptimal settings.

It got lost overnight Sad

Had the latest peers list, 0.5.3 and it had the usual bunch of orphans, etc. Maybe something about being on a Mac?

There is no way any large exchange will list NXT until the NXT server is stable. I am spending a lot of effort to smooth things over with peercover. Crashing or hanging servers, very bad

I converted .pem to openssh format. As said here it was not even needed. "note: PEM private keys are OpenSSH's native format for protocol 2 keys"

Check the username. For ubuntu default is "ubuntu"

amazons instructions were to use it like I have always used it "ssh -i PATHTOPEMFILE root@IPADDRES" yet it doesnt work.  Surely there is someone there that can reset it?

Each post should has its own link url in this forum and we can exactly locate the post. For example, you post should be link https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4401865

P.S. If you have a pending deposit, PM me and I will help track it down

I got no reply on my question regarding account to send the reward to. Could u contact the owner and ask if he needs 20K for the 3rd place in Exchange category?

I let him know to check his PM. He is traveling and in meetings a lot. You can always send it to the peercover acct 2269220637361284198

Thx. The reward will be sent to that address in 24 hours if I get no reply.

What sort of feedback have you had from BTC-e and cryptsy about listing this? has anyone tried bribing or would be interested in setting up a bribe pool?

I know I said it before, but let me repeat this again, now without any guilt:

If I lose your money – tough luck! Go ask Come-from-Beyond why there are no checksums in the system.

I wash my hands.

How old are you? Smiley This is not the way to operate the exchange.

It's just his OCD talking - that's why he is always so paranoid and frightened. So it gladly isn't the personality issue.

I only have a little bit of NXT but the concept of 'sender beware' because your money could disappear forever through the cryptographic equivalent of an event horizon is scary so I am very careful...

Still if you have an exchange with lots of NXT I can imagine I would get very upset if this happened and I had to deal with affected customers and or bear the costs...

Its an emotive issue that needs dealing with - both this message and the response are not helping give confidence to those of us who would like to get more NXT, have more accessible exchanges and start using it.

We don't need BCNext anymore. He kickstarted the snowball with name "Nxt", the rest is our work.

very hard with no leader the snowball can fall from a cliff in a split second

I hope he is not stopping with nxt

Ok, I'll tell u. We have plans that will make CRC on server side unnecessary. Can't tell u more right now.

Or. You 3 are simply so terrified by the cost of the change, your brain starts malfunctioning when it comes to this issue.

I see you keep saying that since transaction is/will be signed on the client, no checksums are needed and this is bullshit!

This is not even a bias, it's a full-blown delusion.

I don't know what to do here and how to get through. We need a professional shrink.


what is so hard in implementing a check in your automated payout if the given address is known to the blockchain?
that should be sufficient, no?

If you want mass adoption, you can't ask people to "follow my advice" to not lose coin.

This is a special advice for exchange owners. He ought to follow it.

User experience is another story that will end when one of client developers implement a checksum. We could continue the discussion after u point me to that place in Bitcoin protocol where checksum is used.

This is handled by client part, isn't it?

I think he has still been rolling out the core codes. There are still many works to be done until his initial promises are fulfilled.

I did this for sending money, however sometimes I get "unknown transaction" errors. I then send the money again, HOWEVER, sometimes the money did go through, so I send a double payment. what should i do to prevent this?

U should use broadcastTransaction.

I did, doesn't work on a unknown transaction id, does it?

Use transactionBytes returned by sendMoney.

k, thanks
