Title: Connecting to Bitcoin-QT on 2nd computer
Post by: BitcoinBarrel on June 03, 2013, 06:14:03 PM
Hello I have Bitcoin-QT installed on one computer and was wondering if I can mine with CGminer on a 2nd computer connecting to the Blockchain on the 1st one. Is it as simple as using http://localhost and 8332 with the user/pass? Or do I have to connect through the IP?

Ok I've got the bitcoin.conf setup on the first computer:

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rcpallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=9332
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0

When I try to connect with CGMiner on the 2nd computer I get an invalid URL error using both:

http://192.168.1.0:9332 -u user -p pass AND http://localhost:9332 -u user -p pass

Any ideas? I'm not using any firewalls and I can connect to http://localhost:9332 in the browser of the 1st computer.
