granting permission to second node

Question

I followed the guide I created first node. Then in second server after I run multichaind chain1@[ip-address]:[port] I was asked to grant permissions. So In first server after "Node Started line" I ran multichain-cli chain1 grant 1.. connect I didn't get any message. Then in second server I try to reconnect to my chain1, but still it ask for permissions. What have I done wrong here? Thank you.

Can you please post a full transcript of the command-line interactions on both servers (labelling each as appropriate) so we can try to help?

Answer 1

You need to open another terminal on the first server, or run the multichaind on the first server in daemon mode with multichaind -daemon, then either type multichain-cli chain1 grant 1.. connect or launch multichain-cli, and then type grant 1.. connect, in it.

Don't forget to replace the 1..  part with the address of the second server, which is shown when you launch it with the multichaind chain1@[ip-address]:[port], command.

Once that is done, re lauch the second server's multichaind process, and it should go smoothly.
