Title: how to mine testnet coins for the altcoin im creating
Post by: antp1114 on January 23, 2014, 04:53:15 PM
So i just finished compiling my altcoin and to test it without premining i was going to try to mine some testnet coins. I have two linux virtual machines running the program but they both have the same ip address. When i put the config file with the addnode = x.x.x.x  they do not connect. Do i need to port forward or something or are they just not connecting because they are on the same ip address? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

usually two hosts sharing the same IP is going to cause problems.
