Notable changes
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
Random-cookie RPC authentication
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
When no `-rpcpassword` is specified, the daemon now uses a special 'cookie'
|
|
file for authentication. This file is generated with random content when the
|
|
daemon starts, and deleted when it exits. Its contents are used as
|
|
authentication token. Read access to this file controls who can access through
|
|
RPC. By default it is stored in the data directory but its location can be
|
|
overridden with the option `-rpccookiefile`.
|
|
|
|
This is similar to Tor's CookieAuthentication: see
|
|
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en
|
|
|
|
This allows running bitcoind without having to do any manual configuration.
