What would the format be for: http://login:password@ip:port
Maybe i am going wrong there? i have http://user:pass@rpcallowip:8332

i have re tried the .conf like you said and i still get the same error

yes i have tried i entered my ip where my node is running under rpcallowip but it still refuses the requests. I am trying to set up so i can send http requests.

Im trying to get my rpc working but when trying to send the requests im getting an error of "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it". I am wanting to be able to send requests from multiple locations so i read to use the allowip as 0.0.0.0
this is my .conf file:

server=1
rpcuser=-----
rpcpassword=-----
rpcallowip=0.0.0.0
rpcport=8332

Could somebody help me resolve this im new to running a node so some help would be great.
