Topic: bitcoin client can't connect to Tor... (Read 1159 times)
I thought it was 9051 with the new Tor. Great, now you've got me wondering which it is.
settings are usual: 127.0.0.1 9050 S5
It is 127.0.0.1 9150 now.
You can speed up Tor and reduce the time it takes the bitcoin client to connect by adding a list of fast exit nodes to the torrc file and the command "strictnodes 1". You can also put several "addnode" commands with ip addresses from http://blockchain.info/ip-log in your bitcoin.conf file. The second option is easier.
here is example format for the addnode commands in bitcoin.conf:

addnode=72.135.116.119
addnode=160.36.11.83
Clicking "New Identity" in Tor usually fixes any intermittent connection problems. Also remember that Tor can be very slow at times, sometimes taking several minutes to establish a connection, so be patient.
hello everyone, last several weeks or so, bitcoin client has troubles connecting Tor network - what's the matter, who know? sometimes it connects successfully, but most of the launches - no...
any remedy to this?
