Automatic Installation Guide

1. Make sure you have the required information gathered

   • Your Chain ID and Matchmaking Token from the Dragonchain Console
     • See the lesson on General Preparation to learn how to register your chain if you haven't
   • The “endpoint URL” for your installation:
     • This will either be a domain name (http://example.com) or
     • Your server’s public IP address (http://12.34.56.78)
       • If following the Linode tutorial, your endpoint will be http://yourserveripaddress
   • The port number to use on your server
     • Unless you KNOW you need a different port, just use 30000 here

2. Connect to your VPS or VM using Git Bash or your terminal

   • If following the Linode tutorial, copy and paste the "ssh root@..." command you saved from the Networking tab

3. Follow the instructions in the dedicated repository for the installer here to be sure you're using the latest version: https://github.com/Dragonchain-Community/dragonchain-uvn-installer/blob/master/README.md
