**<a name="Q16_move_node_to_different_machine">Q16:</a> If I move the client node base directory to different machine and start the client there, will the node have the same node ID as on the previous machine?**
A: Yes, the node ID is stored in the `my_nodeid` file in your tahoe base directory, and it is derived from the SSL public/private keypair which is stored in the `private` subdirectory of the tahoe base directory. As long as you move both of those then the node on the new machine will have the same node ID.
A: Yes, the node ID is stored in the `my_nodeid` file in each node's base directory, and it is derived from the SSL public/private keypair which is stored in `private/node.pem` relative to the base directory. As long as you move both of those then the node on the new machine will have the same node ID.
If you are moving these files into an existing base directory of a node that has already been run, then you will also need to delete or move aside `private/*.furl` under that directory, otherwise the node won't start.
