Running .9.2 on windows 64, 100% synced, status says:

...v1, up to date, 8+0 connections

can someone give me explicit instructions to get connected?

thanks

It would require knowing a lot more about your particular network.

For a typical home setup you can find more information by looking in google for "how to forward ports".

I'll do a little googling, see if I can figure it out from there.

thanks Smooth

UPDATE:
On the side of my ISP provided router, is a nice little label with a GUI access address, user name, and password. From there, flying by the seat of my pants, I created some rules that now allow a gratifying number of incoming connections Grin

What do you mean "get connected" ?

From the above it looks like you are connected, although incoming connections might be blocked by a firewall. That's not critical to fix unless you are comfortable messing with firewall settings.

it was mentioned that with incoming connections blocked I'm not doing the network any good. Not that it's a hashing monster, but every little bit adds up, so if I can, I'd like to do my (little)bit. Sooner or later I will have a much more substantial hash rate to contribute, but might as well have it figured out before then if I can. Baby steps. I'm learning.

Okay in that case you have to make sure that port 18080 is open to the outside world and forwarded to the computer running the node if it is behind a NAT router.

Once you do that and wait a while you should see your incoming connection count start to increase.

Haven't seen anything like that. It's odd too, a fully sync'd blockchain would have been around 15GB mapsize already. If you were running 0.9.1, was it fully sync'd before you upgraded?

Yes, it was within the last day, soon after 0.9.2 was released.

We had a critical bug in 0.9.2, which is now fixed in git master. I think you ran into it. A new point release will be coming out tomorrow.

After upgrading from 0.9.1 to 0.9.2 on Windows 10 64-bit, at some point I received the following message "LMDB Mapsize increased. Old 10240MiB, New: 11264MiB", and then bitmonerod crashed. I haven't seen this on subsequent runs, so it could be a one-off bug.

There's something I don't understand. Monero says I'm synced
but I'm still at block 843390 and 219 days behind

I thought "synced and you may now start simplewallet" would mean you've finished downloading the blockchain?

Ignore that. It just means that at one point you connected with a peer that was in the same state as you (843390 blocks) and it told you it had nothing new to give you. The daemon will of course keep on syncing with the rest of the connected peers.

The first time I saw that I was confused too but ultimately assumed what you wrote:)

Forget about the exiting thing. If anybody read my post, it should be evident the blockchain isn't downloading

looks like it ran for less than a minute before exiting? or was that just a sample, and no change after that?

That was a sample. I had it running for hours, before.

I'll forward your error to hyc, who does most of the 32bit stuff currently.

Slow exiting is the least of my problems.
