Did you not see the part that says: "If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions"? Huh

Simply create the text file in the ~/.funcoin directory using vi or vim or whatever texteditor you use... save/name it as funcoin.conf... make sure it is all configured as you want, then "chmod" it to have the appropriate permissions.
Code:
chmod u=r ~/.funcoin/funcoin.conf

Note: to be able to modify the file, you'd need to set it as:
Code:
chmod u=rw ~/.funcoin/funcoin.conf

I must've missed that, thanks man!

I'm following this tutorial
Code:

I managed to make it this far..



I get that error: To use funcoind, you must set a rpcpassword in the configuration file:
/home/ubuntu/.funcoin/funcoin.conf


So I go and try to locate the funcoin.conf file but I can't locate it:





Any help would be appreciated
