Hmm, behind someone else's firewall... opened port 7688 here, but that would just allow incoming/outgoing until it get's to the outside firewall, so still only 8 connections. Any way to up the default connections?

Try -maxconnections= , I don't know if that will over-ride the 8 limit for nodes without incoming or not. So try the experiment and let us know whether it does or not.

( = some number, that is, not = whitespace character(s)).

Pretty sure default max connections is 125

This altcoin has gotten more attention than any other before it. 30 pages more attention.

Donate!!!

I think it's because its just most complicated to mine and stuff. I know when it first came out a ton couldn't figure out how to run it.

Aha, so you DO have external mining programs!?!?!?! Caught with hand in cookie jar!

We peons only have the reference clients to mine for us, remember? The ones with wallets and mining code?

how you guys getting more connections? I only have 8....

open port 7688 on your router and forward it

I'm mining on 4 different PCs on the same LAN. How am I going to forward the port to all PCs? Is it possible to configure YaCoin to use a different port on each PC?

You only need to open the port on the computer which is hosting the client. Don't worry about forwarding the port for the mining computers, just the computer with the wallet.

Wasn't it supposed to be 1block/minute? We are at block 176xx (appearing faster than I can post), so shouldn't the algorithm slowly start to adapt difficulty more harshly?

Orphans, orphans everywhere - not a single one to adopt.

I was initially getting the mined symbol and then they quickly became orphaned - now not even that.

Please drop a few in my bowl Sad

Use -addnode to add the machine the router routes the port to to the other nodes' list of nodes to connect to.

They all will thus have direct LAN connection to the one that has the many external connections.

-MarkM-

Thanks for the tip! Will the other computers get 8+ connections as well? Or will they still show 8, but are connected through the computer that has 8+ connections?

Hmm not sure if the -addnode counts against their eight. I have seen 9 despite supposed limit of 8 sometimes so maybe it doesn't.

Since I too don't have direct control of my router at home (the landlord has it) I sometimes use -maxconnections 9 to limit the number when running a coin I did once upon a time get the landlord to route but no longer want too many connections for here at home now I have machines out on the net.

So maybe if you do see only 8 counting the -addnode, try raising -maxconnections.

Heck try raising it anyway even if your port cannot be routed to allow incoming connections. Maybe a high -maxconnections will let you do more than 8 outgoing despite no incomings. Worth a try.

You only need to open the port on the computer which is hosting the client. Don't worry about forwarding the port for the mining computers, just the computer with the wallet.

That's how I do it with other coins, but with this one, you are forced to use a wallet to mine on each computer.
