There probably aren't many people who bought that particular cam, but if you provide some technical details we may be able to assist

I've caught 2 different IP addresses trying to sql inject bitmunchies.  So far, no damage, but I am starting to wonder if this is one of the prices of doing business in bitcoins.  Can anyone relate to this experience?

Just keep updating your opencart as soon as updates come out.  All popular shopping carts seem to be probed for weaknesses.  They are looking to break in and get credit card numbers so actually bitcoin sites are a POOR target.  They could have complete control of my server they could still get no coins and no credit card numbers.

These automated scans are not looking for credit card numbers they are looking for host that can be easily compromised. I get at least a couple every week. Block the IPs and don't pay too much attention. If there's a targeted attack, then you should keep an eye on it, but even if this happens the likelihood is someone just trying out some automated tools. People with skills have better things to do

You are nearly there.

Choose port forwarding. Custom service. Start and end port should be 8333 and IP should be 10.0.0.100. I'm not sure about the protocol, so choose both - TCP and UDP.
424  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: LOTS of connection problems for everyone! on: May 28, 2011, 01:31:05 AM
IP address: 10.0.0.100
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 10.0.0.1

DNS servers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

i have my router settings open but doesnt th Internet IP address settings change each time i connect?  its set on Get Dynamically from ISP

We are now configuring your home network which is separate from ISP

Smiley
For the IP address it depends what kind of network you are on. If you open a terminal and type:

Code:
ifconfig
and post the output, I'll be able to tell exact IP you should use.

Subnet mask is most likely 255.255.255.0
Default gateway is the IP address of your router. Again if you post the output of ifconfig I might be able to guess what that IP address is.
For DNS servers I'd suggest using OpenDNS:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

No, by default VMware puts you in a NAT network. You have to change it to Bridged network so that your virtual machine can connect straight to your home network. It's the lower right conner of VMware machine and looks like <...>

To get a static IP in Windows go Start>Control Panel>Network and Internet>Network and Sharing center>Change Adapter Settings
Right click on Local Area Connection>Status>Properties>Internet Protocol Version 4>Properties
Change to "Use the following IP" and enter the appropriate IP, Subnet mask, Default gateway and DNS server.
Check "Validate on exit" and press OK. That's it.

Open the 8333 port

thx, seems to have fixed it for me went from 5-10 connections to 80+

how do i open 8333 on a macbook pro?  i run both macOS and win7 on this laptop (thru VMware Fusion).

Open Windows in VMware Fusion and then choose "Bridged" network(lower right corner). Also, set a static IP address in Windows. Then open/forward 8333 port from your router to that IP address.

You cannon make more than one client listen on 8333 port if you are behind a router

I have a nice shiny 114 connections. Huh

What did you change to allow you to get more than eight connections?

Open the 8333 port

whats the equivalent terminal commands for Win 7 to add nodes?

On a 32bit system you do something like:
Code:
cd c:\program files\bitcoin

Code:
bitcoin.exe -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86

432  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Hobbyist miners forced out today? on: May 27, 2011, 07:01:25 PM
When mining earnings are about equal to power costs, I have been developing a plan to rectify the situation. If you can't increase your mining production, you should decrease your power costs. "But how can you do that?" you might ask, quizzically, turning your head sideways like a confused little precious puppy. The solution is in converting computer heat to power. I have created a system of heatsinks that directs all of my heat to a small turbine filled with methanol. Why methanol? Because it has a boiling point of 65 degrees Celsius, silly goose, which is a bit below the temperature of my video cards. The heat boils the methanol and the gas drives the turbine, which turns an electricity generator (and also is used to rotate a foot massager).

It's not very efficient, but that's where this plan gets better. I can drastically increase the money I get from power generation by directing the methanol vapors to my neighbor, who is a huge jerk who keeps birds in his apartment and lets them fly out his window as they please. The methanol will probably cause him to faint, and then I can take his birds and eat them. This will save me the $20 per month that I normally spend on dead birds, not to mention my normal $12 foot massage budget. This system might not work for you guys, so you'll have to find what works most efficiently for you. Go hog wild. Be creative. Have fun. For example, you might use cats instead of birds. The possibilities here are endless.

Or you could just use the heat to distill ethanol, and give that to hobos in exchange for whatever dead birds they might have found around town. This is a lucrative, untapped market and you've really got to get in early.

Also I have found a lot of large batteries just sitting under the hoods of cars nearby, and these are great for charging at the library, and then carrying home to use to power your computers.

Furthermore, I have found that my apartment is hot enough now that I don't need clothing anymore, so I sold my clothes and now I am a nudist. This has corollary advantages in that sometimes people will actually pay me money to leave from certain places! Don't tell them this, but I was probably going to leave those places anyway because I was getting cold. As a bonus, most bus drivers will let you ride for free if you no longer have pockets and pretend not to understand what they mean when they say "Sir, please pay the bus fare." I offer them one of my car batteries as a gesture of good will, but they never accept it.

This sounds more and more like my life  Grin

I'm not overly familiar with XP. You should open ports in your firewall in XP - I'm not sure if it's under "Network Connections"
437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: LOTS of connection problems for everyone! on: May 27, 2011, 05:03:11 PM
Well, 8 connections is usually a sign of port 8333 being closed. Which protocol did you open 8333 port on your computer, TCP or UDP? Try opening both
438  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: LOTS of connection problems for everyone! on: May 27, 2011, 04:51:54 PM
You could try a rescan. I'm not sure how to do this on windows but using a linux box its

Code:
/path/to/bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoin -rescan

on windows XP it would be:

click start
click run
type: cmd
hit enter
in the command line type: cd\program files\bitcoin
hit enter
then type bitcoin -rescan
hit enter

i have been trying all day to get bitcoin to receive more blocks with no luck.  i have disabled windows security center and shut down the virus protection software, added 8333 port, -addnode'd 6 IPs, and still no luck.  getting 8 (only 8 ) connections but no new blocks...  is there something else to try?  or is it possibly dsl? (it has been wonky all day)

You need to open/forward port 8333 on your router
If you have already 8 connections it should be just a matter of time
To try a quick fix, you could download the whole blockchain manually and then copy it to your Roaming\Bitcoin folder. Search this forum for a link
