Skypool proxy tutorial

Step 1: ssh to your proxy server

And also remember your public IP (e.g. 115.159.114.16 in this example)

Step 2: download the proxy in your server

use command: wget https://github.com/skypool-org/skypool-nimiq-miner/releases/download/v1.3.3/skypool-nimiq-proxy-v0.0.1-linux-x64.zip

Step 3: unzip the proxy & cd to the proxy directory

use command: unzip skypool-nimiq-proxy-v0.0.1-linux-x64 && cd skypool-nimiq-proxy-v0.0.1-linux-x64

Step 4: make sure your port is open

use command: sudo ufw allow 8080 in Ubuntu, and make sure the server provider config allow your port 8080 open to public

Step 5: start proxy

use command: ./skypool-node-proxy in foreground or nohup ./skypool-node-proxy & to start in background

Step 6: change your miner config file server to your server ip, or use command line instead to start mining with proxy

use command: ./skypool-node-client --address=<address> [--name=<name>] [--thread=<thread>] [--server=<server>] [--percent=<percent>] [--cpu=<cpu>]

Step 7: now you can see the proxy works
