I think the rpcallowip is the problem i had to set this to "*" to get it to work with my local machines.

You should avoid doing this if you can. Setting rpcallowip to * allows connections from anywhere, which means that someone who gets access to your password can empty your wallet. You can have multiple rpcallowip entries, so ideally you should have one for each specific IP address that you want to allow connections from.

let me make a guess:

you forgot to put

server=1

in your bitcoin.conf?

bitcoind and namecoind listen for RPC commands even without the server flag. That's all they do, so it doesn't make sense to disable server functionality on them.

I have a windows computer running namecoind with the required configurations

I'm trying to connect to it from my linuxcoin rigs with phoenix and am having trouble.

I think it has something to do with the URL any suggestions?

This is what i'm trying
python phoenix.py -u http://rpcuser:rpcpass@ipaddress:port -k phatk DEVICE=0 etc etc

Post your bitcoin.conf and any arguments that you're passing to namecoind when you start it.

edit:

you are connecting from another machine, so you also need to set:

rpcallowip and rpcconnect
