sudo mkdir -p /opt/dcdn

2. Download Pipe Tool Binary#

Replace the URL with the link provided in your email:

text
sudo curl -L "https://example-link.com/pipe-tool" -o /opt/dcdn/pipe-tool

3. Download Node Binary#

text
sudo curl -L "https://example-link.com/dcdnd" -o /opt/dcdn/dcdnd

4. Make Binaries Executable#

text
1sudo chmod +x /opt/dcdn/pipe-tool
2sudo chmod +x /opt/dcdn/dcdnd

5. Login to Generate Access Token#

text
/opt/dcdn/pipe-tool login --node-registry-url="https://rpc.pipedev.network"

6. Generate Registration Token#

text
/opt/dcdn/pipe-tool generate-registration-token --node-registry-url="https://rpc.pipedev.network"

7. Create Service File#

text
1sudo cat > /etc/systemd/system/dcdnd.service << 'EOF'
