Setup a Cjdns Node

This guide will help you set up a cjdns node on a server.

Requirements

A server running debian based Linux (preferably Ubuntu 22.04) with docker installed

Steps

• Create a data directory where the server configuration will be stored.

  mkdir vpn_data

• Get the latest docker image

  docker pull pkteer/pkt-server

• Configure the server by running the following command:

  docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd)/vpn_data:/data pkteer/pkt-server /configure.sh --novpn

The configure process will create: * a cjdroute.conf at data/cjdroute.conf * PKT wallet at data/pktwallet/pkt/wallet.db * store the wallet's seed phrase at data/pktwallet/pkt/seed.txt configure.sh can take the following flags: * --no-vpn: To configure the server without setting up the VPN server * --with-pktd: To configure the server with a local PKT daemon * --pktd-passwd= : To set a password for the PKT daemon

Alternatively you can edit the config.json file manually.

• Run the server by running the following commands: ./vpn_data/start.sh

  This will start the server and may expose the following ports: * cjdns port set from cjdroute.conf * cjdns admin rpc port set from cjdroute.conf (default 11234) * 8099 for anodevpn server * 5201 for iperf3 * 64764 for pktd
