History

Maxim Biro 28edc23329 Improved DHT bootstrap daemon Supports "unlimited" number of bootstrap nodes in the config file, instead of just 32. PID and keys file paths are not limited by 512 chars anymore. Doesn't read the whole list of bootstrap servers into a global datastructure that just sits there after being processed once -- reads bootstrap servers one by one, processing them between reads. Supports IPv6. Has an option for IPv6. Supports LAN discovery. Has an option for LAN discovery. Writes to syslog. Uses new functions introduced in the core. `status` in the bash script now works. Has a simple README, with instructions for Debian-based distros.		2014-01-19 04:34:58 -05:00

README

Instructions for Debian

The following commands are to be executed as root:

1. In `tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` file change:
  - `CFG` to where your config file (`conf`) will be; read rights required
  - `DAEMON` to point to the executable
  - `PIDFILE` to point to a pid file daemon would have rights to create

2. Go over everything in `conf`. Make sure `pid_file_path` matches `PIDFILE` from `tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`

3. Execute: `mv tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`

4. Give the right permissions to this file: `chmod 755 /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon`

5. Execute: `update-rc.d tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon defaults`

6. Start the service: `service tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon start`

7. Verify that the service is running: `service tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon status`

You can see daemon's log with `grep "tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon" /var/log/syslog`

Troubleshooting:

1. Check the log for errors with `grep "tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon" /var/log/syslog`

2. Check that paths in the beginning of `/etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` are valid

3. Make sure that `PIDFILE` from `/etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon` matches with the `pid_file_path` from `conf`

4. Make sure you have write premmision to keys and pid files

5. Make sure you have read premission to config file
