Topic: Mining behind a firewall? (Read 1740 times)
Thanks! I wasn't aware of pools using port 80 and 443
Yes. But then I need some kind of proxy to forward to a different port like I asked above.
miner@80 ---> firewall ---> proxy maps 80 to 8332 ---> mining pool@8332
miner@80 ---> firewall ---> proxy maps 80 to 8332 ---> mining pool@8332
Not sure if this helps, but you can set bitcoin to use a port other than the default one.
Thanks, but I already tried that with little success. I had the following in my ssh config file:
When I log in to [email protected] I can do:
but if I run
then in a different shell:
I get
Is there some bitcoin proxy or similar I could run on shell.server.com so I could specify port 80 which the proxy would forward to some.server.com. I guess I might be able to do it with iptables...
Code:
Host test
Hostname shell.server.com
User user
LocalForward 8332 some.server.com:8332
When I log in to [email protected] I can do:
Code:
curl --user myrpcuser --data-binary '{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id":"curltest", "method": "getwork", "params": [] }' -H 'content-type: text/plain;' http://some.server.com:8332/
but if I run
Code:
ssh test or ssh -L 8332:some.server.com:8332 [email protected]
then in a different shell:
Code:
curl --user myrpcuser --data-binary '{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id":"curltest", "method": "getwork", "params": [] }' -H 'content-type: text/plain;' http://localhost:8332/
I get
Code:
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

ssh -l 8332:some.server.com:8332 [email protected]
Is it possible to tunnel/forward traffic to port 8332 (under Linux) using ssh or similar If you're behind a firewall which is blocking 8332 and would like to run a miner?
