Agh.

Exactly. I should really proofread.

Noticed something else I forgot:

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

 Embarrassed

Use the same parameter to 'allow' other machines to connect by simply specifying their IP.

Your whatevercoin.conf needs to have a '-server' parameter within it.

Then, connect your miner to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) and use whatever rpcport is indicated in the .conf.

Let me know if you're attempting to connect multiple machines to a single host through your lan.




Ideally, the .conf should contain this information at a minimum:

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=yourusername
rpcpassword=yourpass
rpcport=coin's rpc port


You can launch with the -server parameter as a shortcut target modification or through the cmd prompt. However, just adding it to the .conf is the most sensible solution imo.

When you say adding it to the conf. I assume that is what you are describing in your example by 'server=1' ?

Are you talking about lauching the wallet with -server parameter in the properties?

Noob question. How do you input the -server parameter?


Thank you.

Right click on your qt client and go to properties... Then just add "-server" to the end of the launch path.

How do you connect the other computers on the network? I tried using the IP of the pc with the wallets and it was not working

Right know I'm discussing exactly about this with another user of the forum, I have the same problem.
