Topic: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - 1st Stable fork of Ethereum (New Algo + PirlGuard) - page 352. (Read 961462 times)

Status Ubuntu 14.04 x64; Dual Stack (IPv4/IPv6);  Port 41356 UDP open (both IPv6 and IPv4)

After updating from github no change:
- no peer automatically found
- adding manually f944 successful
admin.addPeer("enode://f944c6702a78a0cbcd6505b76daff069dad2e45ff88896c475da2bef47091c88e5b4042211233e397ad958be998003a2674151e60719c5fdeeff5f8cc2c231a1@74.196.59.103:42786")
- adding peers given in OP failed
admin.addPeer("enode://4055ec69e53df4bfecb95e3b65c28e4f2a1145a3bdc4d85d077b552248cf159951afd649f044783bebf48b902fbc0e96978c76236fd4ab3d5ef7d95d72b84ee5@[::]:42786")

==> it seemed that only peers could be added manually, which contained an IPv4 address
==> peers given by the unspecified IPv6 addresss [::] were not found

So I tested to disable the IPv6 Stack:
bingo:

It seems, if IPv6 stack is enabled, the node tries to find peers using IPv6 only.
This will fail, because no peer is listening on an open IPv6 port.

Strange:
After reenabling the IPv6 Stack all is working well.
Seems that the node is caching known peers (like bitcon (peers.dat)

I cannot check this now, but perhaps this will help:
admin.addPeer("enode://4055ec69e53df4bfecb95e3b65c28e4f2a1145a3bdc4d85d077b552248cf159951afd649f044783bebf48b902fbc0e96978c76236fd4ab3d5ef7d95d72b84ee5@0.0.0.0:42786")

Hi Oc when you will set a pool?

Is there any way to participate with a rented rig? Just found out about this and didn't read through all the pages.

There will be a new genesis to run, and we will provide clear instructions in advance of the launch to make it as simple as possible.

Are you still want make 1.1M premine available from start? Or have changes in this option?

What about step 2 genesis? Do I need to run it at launch? There will be other genesis block right?

"nodes should be the same"

Do I need to run step 2 at final launch? Nodes will be the same?  

The only use for the testnet coins is to help get issues worked out ahead of the main launch, to test things, and so people can get their systems ready and tested in advance.

The main launch tonight will be the real deal.
