Anyone able to help me with this.  I just need a basic connection.  I don't need to keep track of stats.  Thanks.


I am pretty sure it is similar to going against your bitcoind on on your home network, except:

use your router to port forward whatever port the bitcoind is on
when have have to have your friend point to your public internet address,

edit:  warning,  I think that someone that knows what there doing can take your wallet if you open up your bitcoind to the public internet.

I was going to add an external computer to solo mine with gui miner to mine at home.  How do I connect the external(at my brothers house) to my bitcoin client through gui miner.  Thanks.
