Yeeeah!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Blockchain.info only reports the IP address where it first saw the block.
So
Miner ---> you ---> blockchain.info
Blockchain.info saw the block "relayed from you" doesn't mean you mined it.
Actually it could be this
Miner ---> another node ----> another node -----> another node -----> another node ----> another node ----> you ----> blockchain.info

I saw the IP-address of my node as solver of a block!
No, you saw the IP-address of your node as the first to relay that block (that's why it says: "Relayed By" on top).It might be the same node that solved the block, but it doesn't have to be.
I've got greatly surprised when, in rutinary browse of blockchain.info, I saw the IP-address of my node as solver of a block!
My node is running bitcoind (ubuntu, 0.8.1) during last 2-3 days, but mining options are unplugged. RPC-port is protected by password and I don't direct my external miners to my node (much better use of them in pools...). The node is rightly opened to internet, not behind proxy nor NAT.
Of course I quickly checked if the reward was driven to one of the addressed of my wallet... not the case :-(
So, what happened!?
