For some reason the maxconnections config option doesn't work. ghostlander...known?
I have 75 connections right now. 120 connections on the largest seed node.
What makes you think the maxconnections option doesn't work? The number of outbound connections is limited to 16, so maxconnections - 16 is the limit for inbound connections.
I have maxconnections=12
My connections should be no more than 28 then if I understand you correctly (16 out + 12 in).
maxconnections is a sum of inbound and outbound connections. Setting them to 12 isn't a good idea probably.
And that's what I thought originally. So back to my original statement. The maxconnections config option doesn't work and apparently it is not know with you (ghostlander). Should I file a bug ticket or do we not care?
It works for numbers like 50. There are more important things to take care of. I'll add it to my to do list though.
I found info here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8436416 about solo mining. Is this all still accurate?
Thanks!
It's a valid guide.
