I will now turn off my seed nodes as they have still not been included in the default list of seed nodes.
I still would like to offer this service to the bitshares community, so once they will be included in the bitshares client, I will bring them back up (I need about 20 minutes to do that).
My bad. I haven't gotten around to adding them back. If someone can compile a list of all seed nodes I have missed, I will add them to the client. Better yet, submit a pull request!
Also how are you adding these, by DNS names or IP numbers? There are advantages to both of course.
I am going to change some VPS systems. All of them can be located by DNS names, and if that is what the code includes my changing the different VPS IP will by OK. On the other hand... if the DNS is attacked it is a weak point. Either way, whatever method decided should be communicated to the witnesses.
I can tell you that when I change my VPS service (I plan to downgrade at least 1 from 4GB RAM to1GB or 2GB) those IP addresses with change. I will have wackou update the DNS names when I do that, but unless the DNS is used in the code the seeds will be worthless.
If you would explain the procedure I need to follow I will act accordingly. I am NOT familiar with the intricacies of the codebase so please dumb it down for those of use who aren't.
Thanks!
