Which part to backup?

Question

Hi,

i had made 2 multichain user from different computer to connect and store some records on it (create, published stream etc)

After that i tried to delete the entire .multichain file from one of the user computer and i attempt to reconnect to same chain again.

But it seems that multichain gave the user a new address, rpc pass etc. How can i regain the old user info? which part of file in .multichain should i backup so that i still can access so called the "old user profile"?

Answer 1

The wallet.dat file in the directory contains the user's keys for accessing the blockchain, and the multichain.conf file contains the RPC username and password for that node. So after bringing up the new node, you can stop it, reinstall those files, then restart the node again. You should use the -rescan parameter to ensure that any transactions relating to the wallet addresses are reloaded into the node's wallet from the chain.
