With the latest Windows QT wallet, how do I put listen=0 in the daemon config?
My bandwidth is strictly limited so I need to limit everything non essential.
With bitcoin you put that line "listen=0" in bitcoin.conf where the blockchain data is stored.
This is what I am trying to do, but for Monero QT windows 64-bit wallet :
https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#disable-listeningMonero isn't a Bitcoin derivative, but there is a similar option: --p2p-bind-port 127.0.0.1
This will restrict listening to incoming connections to the loopback interface (ie, only those coming from the local machine).
I think it's set as "rpc-bind-port=127.0.0.1" in the config file, but I'm not 100% sure about that one since I don't use one.
Damn, we can use conf files for the GUI wallet? I guess I should do more reading!
Thanks!
Hello,
I have to reinstall windows 10 on which I have the GUI wallet installed monero-gui-win-x64-v0.11.0.0. Which files should I save and where do they find to restore the wallet content to the new installed windows?
Is this the file XMR_wallet.keys?
Thanks
Yes, it is a *.keys file you need to access your wallet.
In which folder of windows 10.0 is this file located?
Thanks!
C:\Users\me\Documents\Monero\wallets is where mine end up on windows 10 64-bit
I did the rpc-bind-port=127.0.0.1 and p2p-bind-port 127.0.0.1 with one and two switches under daemon startup flags, and mondero daemon could not start.
Four tries with different flags.
I think this is the error it gives in log:
2017-09-29 05:48:35.956 10512 WARN net.dns src/common/dns_utils.cpp:487 WARNING: no two valid MoneroPulse DNS checkpoint records were received
Then it says cannot connect to 127.0.0.1 on the port number.
If I run the daemon without any flags, it synchs and runs fine.
I just want to cut down on my bandwidth since my ISP caps me.
