Warning: You are using a common listening port (127.0.0.1:8333) for both Tor and local connections. All connections to this port will be assumed to be Tor connections, and will be denied any whitelist permissions. If this is not your intent, setup a separate -bind=[:]=onion configuration, or set -listenonion=0.
This showed up after updating to Knots 29.2. Anyone knows what it means? Im using the same bitcoin.conf:
rpcbind=127.0.0.1
bind=127.0.0.1
proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
discover=0
server=1
listen=1
listenonion=1
onlynet=onion
Everything seems to work fine. Im just paranoid that im leaking something or people can connect to my computer or node or something. The node is running on Debian. I want to be able to help the network but stay private and safe from people connecting into my stuff beyond serving the network. How do I harden this and why is this error going on anyway now if I did not change anything?
From what I've read, Tor does not work unless you use listen=1, so I set it like that
onlynet=onion guarantees I only interact with other Tor nodes and you don't leak your clearnet ip
discover=0 I don't remember but it's there
rpc and bind I remember reading back then you needed to put localhost there and not 0.0.0.0 for privacy reasons
proxy has the Tor port there, I think you required this create the onion service
I mean everything seems to be working. I get the onion cookie, my node shows up on bitnodes.io, so it should be good to go.
I just want to triple check im not screwing up with something here, last thing I want is people connecting to my computer or leaking something on a Tor context and now that warning has me confused so please let me know.
