Cool. Thanks. I'll write something. I thought I was missing something when no searches turned up.

No, there is no way to force peers be a certain version. However you can write a script which checks the list of connected peers and bans any peer which is not a certain version. Note that the user agent string which announces the version number can be faked, so it is not necessarily reliable to trust that.

Node is up running like a champ!

My question is: I'm running /Satoshi:0.15.1/

Anyway to require incoming nodes to be only Satoshi 0.15+? I realize they are backwards compatible and TOR is diff.

Just wanted to ensure my node only supports Bitcoin Core.

Thanks in advance!

edit - looking for configuration file code!
