twister-seeder » Domain setup

Records example

Create at least two subdomains in your provider's control panel:

  • ns.domain.org
    • A:SERVER_IP
  • seed.domain.org
    • NS:ns.domain.org

If the provider requires two NS records:

  • ns1.domain.org
    • A:SERVER_IP
  • ns2.domain.org
    • A:SERVER_IP
  • seed.domain.org
    • NS:ns1.domain.org
    • NS:ns2.domain.org

note

SERVER_IP is the IP address where twister-seeder is listening for connections on port 53

Alternative domain providers

Alfis DNS

Alternative Free Identity System - decentralized domain registration in the blockchain;
requires renewal once per year by the PoW (Proof-of-Work).

This solution is not compatible with Clearnet domain zones but supports Clearnet IPs.
It also supports Yggdrasil out of the box.

Use an expired domain

Feel free to use any expired domain from this list, as defined in chainparams.cpp

This could be beneficial for older nodes based on existing twister-core builds from the twisterarmy or miguelfreitas branch!
