-EZSTEEM UPDATE 1.1- as EZ as it gets All-in-one Steem Miner/Node Setup Script [Windows VM / Linux]

On each host, edit the config file. Look for the lines that start with

miner =
witness =

Lets assume that your steemit account is "bob" and the private key is "abcdefghijklmn"
update those two lines that you found above with

miner = "bob", "abcdefghijklmn"
witness = "bob"

Do that on each node.

WARNING : Be careful with this approach. If someone were to hack into your node, and get to your config file, they will now have your miner name and your private key. Using a different account and then transferring it to your primary account is safer.

Ok, but I read somewhere it's not advisable to have twice the same witness on multiple node ...

That is correct. For all but one of the nodes, make sure that the witness line is commented out using the # sign. Example : # witness

@artakan For some reason, I can not reply to your following post

Our source of knowledge is all of the awesome steemers in steemit. Once you start picking up on the keywords you want to search for, you start narrowing down the posts that are the most helpful. I hope that helps. For your questions, searching for cloning nodes, steemd, witness, miner and cli_wallet should get you very close to what you are looking for.

And also I do not think you can transfer mining STEEM from one account to another as it is Steem Power ... or can you ?

With the cli_wallet, you can transfer the mined STEEMPOWER to a primary account. @omotherhen and I are working on making it a little simpler in EZSTEEM. (v1.2 should have this) The command you want to research on cli_wallet is set_withdraw_vesting_route. I am not very familiar with the command yet, I can only point you in the correct direction.
