Hi all,
I can't connect to my node using bitcoin-cli. The node seems to be reachable from the outside since I get more than eight connections, so I think I've correctly forwarded the posts on my router. Also,
https://bitnodes.earn.com/nodes/31.6.41.78-8333/ says my node is online and reachable. I can not connect through the local LAN IP and also not through the public internet IP.
I can only find standard bitcoin entries in the bitcoind log file.
Server:Bitcoin Client Software and Version Number: Bitcoin Core 0.16.1

Following commands are executed from my client computer:
Bitcoin Client Software and Version Number: Bitcoin Core 0.16.1
Operating System: Linux / Arch
Try to connect using the LAN IP of the server computer:
bitcoin-cli -rpcconnect=192.168.1.80 -rpcport=8332 -rpcuser=*** -rpcpassword=*** -getinfoerror: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1)
(make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)
I get the same error as above when trying to connect via public internet IP
connect using a bogus LAN IP, I get a different error:
bitcoin-cli -rpcconnect=192.168.1.84 -rpcport=8332 -rpcuser=*** -rpcpassword=*** -getinfoerror: couldn't connect to server: EOF reached (code 1)
(make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)
Any idea? Thanks!
