Title: I am in desperate need of assistance from a developer Please! :(
Post by: Snic on June 04, 2017, 06:34:03 PM
Hello,

Please understand that i am extremely desperate, i have slept about 5 hours per night for the past 5 days.
I am in need of assistance.

Here is the story.
I am a college student, my final project that i am trying to create in order to get my diploma is creating a Litecoin Clone.
I do not intend to release this in any way shape or form. Its just part of the project (How do Cryptocurrencies work)

I have managed to compile the windows wallet for it, the code has been modified it has all sorts of diferent parametres.
I have a working windows wallet.

Everything is almost ready.

The final problem is that i need to connect 2 wallets to one another, one on a virtual machine, and one on the same running device.

Is there anyone that can help me with this problem, please the project has to be finished in 4 days.

Best Regards,
Snic

Can you tell us more about what you mean by connect?  Send RPC commands? Open TCP/IP connections? All between the main machine and a virtual machine?  Send coins? Connect as in link addresses in one wallet to another via transaction analysis?

If one of the former can you ssh between machines? Are ports open?  Each has its own ip?

Yes, The wallets must connect to one another, mining has to be possible, transactions have to be able to send and be verified by the miner, the machine runing the VM will also by mining by a simple Scrypt miner that is integrated in all coins at launch.

The type that you simply enter "setgenerate true -1"

Send RPC commands? Open TCP/IP connections?
What are my options here, i only have 1 machine.

Both the main machine and the VM are running windows 10.

Hi!

I am extatic to share that i have found a workaround. I used a free tier AmazonAWS EC2 instance running Windows Server 2012 R2, and updated my code a bit, in order to connect the nodes. Now i do not need a VM.
And the panic of not finishing college due to a technicality has been averted.

Thanks,
