Need help setting up Masternode

I have been racking my head as to what I'm doing incorrectly....I followed many examples with no success.
Scenario: Mac running Dash Core client with Masternode on Ubuntu Server in the cloud. My wallet has over 1000 in one delivery, link to wallet transer is chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/address.dws?XcpoMF7D8mVgVgtMjPHuAJ586u4EZBi7VN.htm
Mac Dash client configured with Masternode.conf
Server configured with dash.conf
Question: what is the HASH for this, as when I go to activate it, Failed to start masternode. Error: Could not allocate txin xxxxxxx for masternode <externalIP:9999>
What should be my Masternode.conf file look like. I have "AlisName externalIP:9999 Mastergenkey Hash 0

./dash-cli getinfo

Thanks, that seem to do the trick. It seems there is alot of old information out on blogs which distracts people with detail such as this.
I think the main challenge for me was finding the latest details to setup a masternode. I am now at a point wondering is SENTINEL necessary?
