Post by: Dare on May 25, 2014, 11:12:49 PM You have "rpcport=43556" in the middle of your config file, but you forwarded port 8333. Changing either one so that they both match should solve your problem; I recommend using 8333 for both since it's standard and you're using a private internal network, but it doesn't really matter.

If your native language isn't English, consider posting in one of the regional forums instead of here.I want to install a script in a linux server,(a merchants website will occur here) I want to set up, in a win 2012 server, the bitcoin server. The website should be able to communicate with the bitcoin server. Clients should be able to have their unique bitcoin addresses when they pay for something. Thanks Title: Re: How can i setup a bitcoin server in windows 2012 to listen to remote hosts? Post by: nosdi26 on May 26, 2014, 07:31:04 AM About the windows server:
Its hosted in virtualbox, , it has an ip address like other computers in my network, like 192.168.178.xxx I cannot get which ip addresses and where to put in the config file. My static ip of my isp is lets say 5.5.5.5. Any help will be appreciated Title: Re: How can i setup a bitcoin server in windows 2012 to listen to remote hosts? Post by: Dare on May 26, 2014, 08:09:23 AM You'll need to be able to reach your windows server from your linux server in order to connect to the bitcoind instance; if they aren't on the same network, you'll need to port-forward the port for your bitcoin daemon to the windows server from your router, and make sure that your RPC config is secure. Also, if you're hosting the windows server on a home internet connection, you probably have a dynamic IP which you will have to constantly update (manually or through software) to keep it working.
The only part in your config file that matters is this part (everything else is commented out and has no effect): rpcuser=user.. rpcpassword=pass... rpcallowip=* rpcport=43556 server=1 The rpcport is the port that you need to forward to the windows server, and rpcallowip should be set to the IP address of your linux server to help prevent unauthorized access.
