Witness Update - 2017-01-09
![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://i.imgflip.com/1hddta.jpg)
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get a scolding from a Wizard like Gandalf The Grey? Well... not really a scolding but words of wisdom, and @gtg nailed it I think.
He caught me when I was updating my seed node to 0.16.1 the other day but I just thought how he commented was great. He is correct about his statement though.
Edit: I didn't even have it configured correctly in the first place... smh.
Anyways,
Updated to the latest soft fork version 0.16.1 for both seed and witness node.
SBD pegging: APR 4%, Price Feed bias at 2%, and account creation fee set at 30 STEEM(thanks to @someguy123 with some help with the pegging)
Continuing to learn :)
Witness server:
- Google VPS
- Single Core CPU
- 4 GB RAM
- 100 GB SSD
- version 0.16.1
Seed node:
Update: Thanks to @abit and @gtg, now this noob has a properly running node, for the most part...
- 104.198.222.18 :2001
- version 0.16.1
I leave you with a quote from Gandalf The Grey:
"He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom."

J.R.R. Tolkien, Council of Elrond, The Fellowship of the Ring

chuckles Amusing. Hope all is well now.
Yep all is good. Same to you Raymon.
You may know that 10.128.0.4 is a LAN/private IP address, so others won't be able to connect to it by adding it to config.ini, for example:
To get your external IP address of your VPS, try this command:
You may need to allow incoming connection to the 2001 port, perhaps set it in your VPS control panel.
Good luck!
Thank you :)
Hope it's a smooth transition.
bleh trying to get it configured correctly. Doesn't seem to connect with the suggested correction.
I'm sure once you get it working you will realize it's these easiest answer.
