Title: mining via bitcoind -what version Post by: 100%digital on March 18, 2013, 04:12:12 PM since last week sometime (...when hard fork occured) my bitcoind client will not allow more than 8 connections via 8332... i set my config file to allow 30 (which my system has always maintained).
tldr; should i be using version 8.x when mining locally? thanx all.

Issue #1: Bug that caused fork has been fixed. You can upgrade to 0.8.1 and mine with no problems. Issue #2: To have Bitcoinqt maintain more than 8 connections, you have to forward port 8332 in your router.

issue 2: ...was resolved via restarting the computer, 15 connections and climbing... thanx for link regarding port forward, albeit not needed. " i set my config file to allow 30 (which my system has always maintained)."
