How to manually set an address for a node

Question

Hi, because I am using docker-compose to run a network of multichain nodes, I need to set a fixed address (private/public) for each node and configure the corresponding permission only once.

Do you have an idea how to generate and set manually addresses for each node.

 

Thanks!

Please take a look at the initprivkey runtime parameter which should do what you need:

Thanks, but this only setup the private key, what about the node's address?

I think $handshakelocal$ can do the job?

The address is derived directly from the private key so it sets that as well.
