Title: cant connect to my online bitcoin via 8333
Post by: datguys on March 12, 2014, 11:52:55 AM
I've tried with port 8333 and 8332 and it doesn't work, my bitcoind is installed on an ubuntu 13.04 server from bitvps

my bitcoind should be on http://207.12.89.181/ thats the ip of my server. Any help would be massively thanks

Does the bitcoin community not like helping other people out or something?

Wow, you waited 18 minutes before accusing the bitcoin community for not being helpful. ::)  Just give it a little time, someone with experiance should be able to help (assuming he isn't driven away by your comment).  I don't really know your situation (nor am I very proficent at networking), but I'd try installing Tor and routing bitcoind through it and see if it solves the problem.

You probably need to open a firewall port on those ports.  Read your vps providers documentation on opening firewalls.
