Issues activating a new node (after old one broke)

Node Operators getting started
1

Hi, so i started a new node back in march it run fine for a few weeks, and then broke i struggled to fix it and left it.

I decide to get back into the project with a new node, but now it’s just saying offline…not sure if i am banned?ports should be open…i am using a docker under unraid

You need to request a new token and create new identity files.

i did that…anything else i can try?

Can you show your docker command ? You can remove personal info from it.

Enter your DDNS in remote address and port 28967 in port number and check if your port is open.

Did you use the docker command given in documentation ?
https://documentation.storj.io/setup/cli/storage-node#running-the-storage-node

Port 28967 is open on home.xxx.x.

I am using the docker for unraid…
