steem-config-ini

– Go inside the witness_node_data_dir envelope and open the config.ini document with Notepad or another content tool

– Start by adding a couple of steem hubs to associate with, simply glue the accompanying rundown under P2P hubs to interface with on startup:

seed-node = 52.38.66.234:2001
seed-node = 52.37.169.52:2001
seed-node = 52.26.78.244:2001
seed-node = 192.99.4.226:2001
seed-node = 46.252.27.1:1337
seed-node = 81.89.101.133:2001
seed-node = 52.4.250.181:39705
seed-node = steemd.pharesim.me:2001
seed-node = seed.steemed.net:2001
seed-node = steem.clawmap.com:2001
