Docker image
NOTE - At this time RNode does not run successfully in Docker on MacOSX. This is because you must run Docker with the host networking option. By default, Docker runs in network bridge mode. To use the host networking option, you must include the 'network=host' option in your Docker run command. This flag does not work on MacOSX.

Other requirements
Download and save the bonds.txt file
Download the file from https://repo.pyr8.io/rnode-test-sessions/bonds.txt
Save the file in a /genesis directory
Note - If you previously downloaded and save the bonds file for a different testing session, you need to make a change. Previously the system looked for the bonds file in the /validators directory. Changes in the software now supports looking for the bonds file in the /genesis directory. Please make sure the bonds file is stored in the correct directory.
