it's really easy to add namecoin support to firefox using foxyproxy - sweet.
how much trouble is it for a webhoster to add .bit support if you do not have your own ip? and what would he have to do?

When? More like an "if", and a remote one at that!
What happens when the .bit domain gets officially used by ICANN? Has anyone thought about that?
Holy crap! Shinobi made his first non-bear post! Stop the presses!
July 22, 2011, 04:20:26 PM
the .bit domain could easily be changed because domains are registered as d/name here
so if i wanted ctoon6.bit
i register as d/ctoon6
so you could probably change a few lines of code and use a completely different domain name.

is there a gui inside namecoin.exe ?
There is no gui. it's all controlled by the JSON-RPC server, similar to bitcoind. July 22, 2011, 09:36:49 AM

It's normal for hashespersec to be zero when using an external miner.

Hmm I seem to have Guiminer hashing ok but if I do a 'namecoind listtransactions' command I get
[

Also if I do a namecoind getinfo I get:

Namecoin is a naming system based on bitcoin with a few modifications. It is inspired by the bitdns discussion and recent failures of the DNS.

Nice. This will give namecoin some publicity. I'll be watching the show!

Mhm, closed source for an open source based project, that's strange.
I understand it, if it is webpage or something but a GUI shouldn't be closed source.
But either way, I like the idea of Namecoin.

I agree, I would never use a closed source client for Namecoin or Bitcoin.
This is not an 'official' GUI though, it was just made by some random person.
Sure but whats the point in making a closed GUI?
Yeah, nothin.
I tell you, i will not use the GUI. I don't want to suggest anything but
you could wake up one day and everythings gone. (I know that's the worst case scenario).
But on the other hand, what will the developer gain from this, donations?, I don't think so.

No, I didn't find a GUI client...
I only found this one:
http://dot-bit.org/InstallAndConfigureNamecoin
And it works...

So you were talking about the command line client. Now I'm torn between thanking you for the extra mining power or hating on you for disrespecting command line programs.
There is a GUI btw, although it's closed source:
