Hello, thanks for the work,

I have downloaded and installed everything, but after compilation, and launching, nothing really seems to happen.
So, if you could help me I would greatly appreciate with these 3 questions :

1. does the "withness" name described above needs to be the same than my steemit account ? Or does it need to be dissociated from my steemit account ??
2. Is there a way to check if steemd actually does something ? In my case, i have started the daemon and nothing seems to happen, with no output at all....
3. the method described above shows some P2P nodes adresses and ips. Do they need to be entered in the .ini file or is it just some kind of output from the steem daemon.

In my case, here is my output at launch :
PORT-CM steemd # ./steemd --rpc-endpoint

        STARTING STEEM NETWORK
