Both machines went async. While the vps found 19 blocks, my home machine was at 0 blocks (./foocoind getinfo)
Is it normal, that you need to set "rpcallowip=*" to establish a connection between two machines? I thought this option is only to set who is allowed to send commands?
Topic: Establishing testnet connection between 2 machines (Read 495 times)
I needed to do the following on the vps:
Code:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 19700 -j ACCEPT
If I add "rpcallowip=*" on each side then the vps connects to my home machine, but the home machine still gets:
netstat -anet | grep 19700
vps:
home:
Code:
2014-05-25 14:04:16 trying connection x.x.x.x lastseen=0.0hrs
2014-05-25 14:04:21 connection timeout
netstat -anet | grep 19700
vps:

Hello,
I just started playing with the latest litecoin code for personal education. Got the genesis block created and am now trying to establish a testnet connection between my vps and my home machine.
vps IP: x.x.x.x
home IP: y.y.y.y
Testnet port: 19700
From what I read I should do...
on vps: ./foocoind -testnet -connect=y.y.y.y
on home: ./foocoind -testnet -connect=x.x.x.x
I already forwarded the ports on my router to the home machine, so this should be no problem. However, I never geht both machines connected. Here are the conf files I tried (~/.foocoin/foocoin.conf):
Result (debug.log):
on vps:
2014-05-25 12:47:45 trying connection y.y.y.y lastseen=0.0hrs
2014-05-25 12:47:45 connect() failed after select(): Connection refused
on home:
2014-05-25 12:48:21 trying connection x.x.x.x lastseen=0.0hrs
2014-05-25 12:48:26 connection timeout
Other config:
Result: same as above
Other config:
Result: same as above
This is the output of "netstat -anet | grep 19700":
vps:
home (192.168.1.107 is my local ip which is the port forwarded to):
If I put "listen=1" to any of the machines config file I always get:
Any ideas what else I can try?
