Actually some machines have firewalls on the machine itself too, so as well as checking router there can also be a need to to check the machine's own firewall o allow connections to the port.

Trying to find out the port number is getting annoying, in most coins I just grep for "fTestNet" and find a C oneliner conditional statement of the x ? a : b form that checks fTestNet and sets one port number or another. For some reason I am not finding that or equivalent in BBQcode so far.

I did getnewaddress to get a BBQcoin address for myself: bSPSqjm3PyjXoaGhBthbTTSjxMySUXMLrx

Here's a start, as a bonus you get a language that's designed for data and analytics, not for making web pages.

https://github.com/gavinandresen/bitcointools

You've got 6GB of blockchain and you're worried about your wallet?

Yes when you have over 200,000 bitcoin addresses, the bitcoind system starts getting slow, and I want to make it faster, this would be one way. I guess one day I will be taking to write a script to clear it out.
did you once already had more than 1 million addresses?
still looking for a solution to manage 46M adresses.
sry for topic hijacking!

what?
did you manage to have a working wallet.dat with atleast 1m addresses?

Little does Kano know that I have made arrangements for Luke-JR to visit at the same time.  It will be an epic deathmatch that we are televising on PPV.
Is Luke-jr going to 51% attack BFL ?
Is there a list somewhere of luke's 51% attacks; what happened etc. ?
No need for a list with only one item: CoiledCoin. Can't be bothered with pissing off scammers anymore.
And the trolls have a field day with it, claiming Eligius miners were involved when it was just me.
for reference, may i ask why u attacked CLC?

if your sure your blockchain wont get corrupted (RAID with brtfs for example) u can sest it to 1 without any problems.
That doesn't make you sure it won't be corrupted. No widely used filesystems give you atomic operations across multiple files (and even if any did— we're not invoking them).  Especially with 0.8 introducing a brand new potentially warty storage engine it's good to have the checking though turning it down is way better than turning it off— most of the benefit comes from checking the most recent blocks.
i got my checkblocks set @ 100, 2.5k is imho overkill since its such a long timerange.

The World Trade Center does not have 11 letters.

The Twin Towers does not have 11 letters.

Osama Bin Laden does not have 11 letters.

There were not 911 victims.

New York does not have 11 letters.

There were not 11 aircraft involved.

The first tower was not hit at 9:11.

There were not 911 windows which were shattered in the buildings.

Neither Tower 1 nor Tower 2 were 911 feet high.

It did not take 9 minutes and 11 seconds for the fire departments to respond.

This is the first time I've seen these facts. Would you be so kind as to relay your source, for I've hunted Google a total of 911 seconds, but no joy.

My username has 11 letters in it and I gave you 11 facts. You are one person questioning my 11 facts. Your first name of your username has 9 letters in it.

I am one person. You are another person. In total, that is 2 persons.

11 - 9 = 2.

What more could you possibly need?

Now that you've gone there... I have 4 sockpuppets and you have 5, making a total of 11 accounts, 9 of which are sockpuppets. Now don't fuck with me again, or one of my sockpuppets will create 910 sockpuppets and we'll be right back where we started.
you mean 911 sockpuppets? Tongue

With that, I declare sockpuppet war! Let me explain it to you really slow. The sockpuppet creating the 910 sockpuppets is the General. Therefore, 1 General Sockpuppet will command 910 subordinate sockpuppets. 1 + 910 = 911, the exact number that constitutes a sockpuppet battalion.

BTW, would you be so kind as to offer up a battlefield locale where this war could take place while we hash out the rules of engagement?

1595  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Potential fix for Apple Bitcoin ban on: February 06, 2013, 08:58:05 AM
We're all well aware that Apple has a disgust for anything that competes with iTunes credits, and thus bitcoin accepting apps (especially wallets) are not allowed. There is a potential fix for this though in the realm of games.

For those curious as to what I mean, ask yourselves-- didn't you grow up with a certain game related to money and property trading? Monopoly! What is those properties were actually representative of something else like a trade of value between another "player"?

Do you remember another little game called DIGIMON where you traded monsters? What if those monsters were just a representation of value? Do you remember being able to create said monster by insterting a CD into your drive and having an algorithm create one from the checksum/hash? Who's to stop you from creating monopoly money from a QR code?

Furthermore, with the Apple Game Center giving you all the tools (free API) for multiplayer games, what's to stop one talented coder from making an 'exchange game', or basically forex simulator? Desperate users could even buy fake bux (iTunes credits) in-app at a huge markup (30%+ for iTunes fees + risk of chargeback).

No, I'm not saying I'm making this right now (why would I ever admit that?), what I'm asking is, why isn't this avenue being tried by everyone else? Is the threat of eventually finding out and bashing it down too great?

Discuss  Smiley

The best fixes I can see for the Apple Bitcoin ban is:
1) Android
2) Even better when it comes out: Ubuntu Phone
3) Jailbreak

Well, that's not really a fix is it, it's more of a list of alternatives. (I use Android myself for that very reason!)
the fix would be, ban apple Wink

IXC can be merged mined with BTC. To claim IXC uses SHA1 is insane.

+1  throwaway

official IXC thread is wrong then, propably outdated.  

op updated
if its SHA1 it coudlnt be MM'd with BTC.

--snip--
i just checked the src, its SHA256 as usual.

1598  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTB] Lancelot on: February 06, 2013, 01:02:20 AM
Just bid here. The method you use is clunky and unfair to the bidders.

It does feel clunky, doesn't it.  However ... it is a technical test run of a process for a GUI based auction tool.

Without requiring additional overhead, it is self documenting, transparent, irrevocable, archived, and uses the strengths of BTC. 

In addition, the bidder's BTC pay address can be unique for this auction, and the bidder can transfer the bid funds through a mixer and remain anonymous.  Comments can be added to the bid payments.

Your participation in this auction will permanently identify you as a participant in the event that any auction software does materialize.

This method documents that I have 13.9710038 BTC on hand, in the account BTC address for the auction.

Perhaps you would like to give your  2˘ worth regarding the amount of the fee.  I wonder what rate you would accept.  Perhaps 0.001 (2˘), or 0.000 1, or 0.000 01.  We can survey and vote here and now.  Make a payment to 1AjRvwoChLFY7m76Yx6gxeU39gakrEDT8o in the amount of BTC that corresponds to the fraction that you would like to receive on any auctions where you are the buyer.

Nothing stops discussion of the bid amounts or any other drama between participants in this thread. 

I am curious how many call-outs that the receipt of 2˘ is a scam will come forward.
so this will be a scam auction software? why not sending back the failed bids? do you want to call this "fees"?

Are you still thinking that I am going to hold onto 15 BTC per bidder, as you did in your first post?  That is not what my post says, and I invite you to read it again, especially this next part.
Quote
To place bid, pay 0.01 X your price to 1PRLQuMjk7rR2zW1X3X8kCWHofmkStGzT4
For example, to bid 15 BTC, pay 0.15 BTC ($3.00 or so)

If I call these "fees" will you stop calling the process a scam?

It seems pretty clear that this bugs you, but I don't understand why.  Nothing is hidden.  Everything has a structural purpose.  The amounts of money involved are not profitable to me and they are not burdensome to you.  This format makes it easy to automate the process.
yes i did read it afterwards, the question remains: why dont u send the coins back if auctioning is done?
it bugs me cause bidding on an auction dosnt cost you anything, only if you win the auction.
if you want to keep em as "fees", then pls edit ur OP accordingly Smiley

Close all unnecessary ports.

Only open ssh to admin's ip.

[...]

Plan for complete failure and run monthly complete restore runs only from back up.

implement fail over  in co-located data centers.
Slightly overkill for the OP if you ask me.
While you're at it you might want to add that everything should be hosted in a nuclear bunker. On Mars.

1600  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: CheapSweep: a script for low-cost address sweeping on: February 06, 2013, 12:36:11 AM
i updated the script so it works with bash on linux:

I've been running it on Linux, and bash is my shell.  What version of bitcoind are you running?  I pulled the most recent changes from git master this morning, as it had been dying on me lately for no good reason.
had nothing to do with bitcoind, the problem was non existing escaping of [ and ", you probably dont run bash, maybe dash?

Nope...bash is a system package on Gentoo.  I have v4.2_p37 on most of my boxen (including the mining/bitcoind/litecoind box).
according to bash syntax [ and " have to be escaped, seems to be some wierd bash version lol

EDIT: err, got it confused, didnt mean bash, ment GNU's sed
