Lightning Watchtower

BTC_Quest · 17. Juli 2021 um 17:36

Hallo zusammen, wer hat bereits mit Raspiblitz erfolgreich einen Watchtower installiert?
Ich habs nach dieser Anleitung versucht:
https://btc21.de/lightning-watchtower/
und bekomme aber immer letzten Befehl: sudo lncli wtclient add xxxxxxxxx
die Fehlermeldung:

[lncli] could not load global options: unable to read macaroon path (check the network setting!): open /root/.lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon: no such file or directory

Das File gibt es bei mir allerdings mit seltsamen kryptischen Sonderzeichen … File korrupt?
Hat jemand Rat oder könnte mal sein admin.macaroon posten?

BTC_Quest · 17. Juli 2021 um 18:22

hab den Fehler gefunden:

lncli wtclient add xxxxxxxxx muss ohne „sudo“ ausgeführt werden.

Ich finde die Anleitung von BTC21 gut:

Habe es noch nicht ausprobiert!

Hat jemand einen Watchtower Dienst, an den man seine Node anbinden kann?

Roadrunner · 9. August 2021 um 18:30

Carlos du alter Haudegen

Carlos · 10. August 2021 um 05:24

Meine Node muss sich ja weiter entwickeln.
Während der Bitcoin Zitadelle gab es ja gute Workshops zum Thema Lightning Nodes.
Habe gleich nach dem Event diese Optimierungen vorgenommen.
Das Thema Watchdog ist eines davon…

A list of known altruistic Lightning Network watchtowers will be shared here in …the format: `<watchtower-pubkey>@<host>:<port>` Guide to set up (please read through before posting) : https://github.com/openoms/lightning-node-management/blob/master/watchtower.md Aim to keep these nodes online to benefit your peers. Check the settings after all system updates and edit the details if there is a change. Offline towers should be removed by the owner and will also moderate as needed. Keep in mind that sharing your public IP or dynamicDNS exposes the physical location of the node so the use of Tor is encouraged.

Hallo, wollte auch den Watchtower aktivieren, habe alles nach der Anleitung ausgeführt, leider funktioniert es nicht, meine Node will sich mit keinem Watchtower verbinden, komme einfach nicht weiter, vielleicht jemand eine Idee:

Wurden mehrere Watchtower versucht? Den vorherigen auch mal entfernt?

andronex · 15. September 2021 um 18:14

habe mittlerweile 4 Tower drin, wenn ich eine Adresse hinzufüge, dann funktioniert es erstmal, also session true, nach lnd restart dann aber nicht mehr, session auf false. Entfernen lassen sich die Tower nicht, mit lncli wtclient remove kommt wenn kein Tower verbunden, dass während einer Session kein Tower etfernt wwrden kann, wenn einTower verbunden dann kommt, dass der Tower nicht entfernt werden kann, ohne weitere Hinweise.

Habe jetzt lnd neu gestartet, jetzt zeigt er bei towers :

„pubkey“: „025d21fc580d854052e7087670ac85283dd10db7b273fc697827520a34360279db“,

],
„active_session_candidate“: true,
„num_sessions“: 1,
„sessions“: [

bei den anderen 3 Towers weiterhin false, also scheint er sich jetzt doch verbunden zu haben, vielleicht hat es geholfen, dass ich nicht gleich restartet habe?
Der Befehl mit dem weitere Towerdaten ausgegeben werden sollen funktioniert aber trotzdem nicht:

Das ist auch richtig so. Es passt immer nur ein Tower auf deine Node auf. Nach jedem Neustart des LN Clients wird ein Tower ausgemittelt.

Blocksport · 7. Dezember 2021 um 20:53

Wer mich als seinen Watchtower hinzufügen möchte kann dies gerne tun. Mein Node läuft 24/7 und passt bereits fleißig auf einige Channels auf.

Habe leider Probleme beim hinzufügen von Watchtowers.
„root@raspberrypi:/home/admin# sudo lncli wtclient add 02b745aa2c27881f2494978fe76494137f86fef6754e5fd19313670a5bc639ea82@xjyldrwmtxtutdqqhgvxvnykk4ophz6ygr3ci4gxnnt5wibl7k4g2vad.onion:9911

Weshalb kann der TLS cert file nicht geladen werden und wo finde ich den?
Hoffe es kann jemand weiterhelfen!

@ElBlocko:
Dein Fehler ist, dass du mit dem root Account den Befehl ausgeführt hast. Die Lightnting Node (lnd) läuft unter dem User admin. Führe bitte den Befehl mit dessen Kennung aus.
