After 36 hours of port correctly forwarded, still only connected to 10 peers. I think I reached the "I only believe it if I see it" phase regarding more than 10 peers being connected.

I currently have 30 peers reported. Just reset to update to the latest from git - hit 10 peers quickly, after couple minutes it's up to 13. So it CAN happen...

Also I would use a port scanning tool to make sure the port is open and forwarded and not getting hung up somewhere between the wide open internet and the local daemon. I find http://www.canyouseeme.org/ useful for a sanity check.

im with you.. I have NEVER seen more than 10. Same... perhaps its it choking on NAT? While I have a NAT in place, it has multiple public IPs, one of which is assigned to the server I was using - basically each and every port is forwarded. This is instead of assigning the server a public IP, because it makes internal networking easier for me.

im with you.. I have NEVER seen more than 10. I have the same problem. I noticed that when i get a new ip address (24h disconnect) my bitcoin and namecoin connections drop to 8 and stay there untill i restart them. But that doesnt work for p2pool. Only one time I had 14 peers in p2pool, but never again. edit: We need IPv6 (No more NAT)

It would be really cool if this were integrated directly into cgminer. forrestv what do you think of that? Have you had any dialog with ckolivas at all?

There just aren't many users currently (only me at the moment). Can you post any Python error messages you see?
Only you? wth, am I invisible? No errors, just... 10 peers. That's it.

I find http://www.canyouseeme.org/ useful for a sanity check. Been there, done that. Success: I can see your service on xx.247.9.10 on port (9333) Your ISP is not blocking port 9333 Also, first thing I did was an nmap from an external server. Result: "open". I knew that, but I double-checked anyway. So.. yeah. Maybe i'm being paranoid, but the whole ">10 peers" really seems utopic/flawed.

Might be because I have a static IP - back up to 25 peers as of now. Well, I'm not contributing (much) hashing power but at least I'm giving a little network stability?

I knew that, but I double-checked anyway. So.. yeah. Maybe i'm being paranoid, but the whole ">10 peers" really seems utopic/flawed. I made my node connect to your address (using the -n option), so you should have at least 11 peers now. Something might be wrong with the share ranking algorithm, though if I look at the address database, it says that your node has only been up for about 22 hours (since unix timestamp 1326773440). Does that sound right..? It would be really cool if this were integrated directly into cgminer. forrestv what do you think of that? Have you had any dialog with ckolivas at all?
I worked a bit with him to get cgminer and P2Pool working well together. I don't know how useful that would be... A lot of people have multiple machines running cgminer and one P2Pool instance. Why do you want it integrated? I'd think some kind of monitoring tool that started P2Pool and cgminer might be better. Been running merged for 24+ hrs with cgminer on defaults and I 8 and was a bit shocked at the E, U, and Rejected, which would normally be 120%, 19.5/m and .6%. Can anyone recommend settings changes or do these numbers look good?
P2Pool has characteristics very different from most mining pools. Work is given a difficulty of 8 instead of 1, which explains the decreased U. Work expiring more quickly (every 10 seconds instead of 10 minutes) decreases cgminer's displayed efficiency and increases rejects. P2Pool's displayed efficiency is very close to 100%, so everything seems okay. Efficiency is the ultimate indicator of how well everything is working.

Does that sound right..? I got your latest changes from Git, had 2 mns downtime, so yeah, 22 hours at the time of your post.. that is correct. Interestingly enough, I did notice the "Peers:11 (1 incoming)" this morning, and now, it even got to "Peers: 12 (2 incoming)". Sooooo, it seems it's .. erm.. "hard" to go over 10 peers, but it can be done. And if, like c_k said, "10 is enough", then everything is working fine.

I might play with this later tonight. Like what I am reading as it seems to be the perfect mix of solo mining and pooled mining.

Why do you want it integrated? I'd think some kind of monitoring tool that started P2Pool and cgminer might be better. I was thinking it would be nice to just be able to download one program, set your payout address and run it to start mining on P2Pool. But now that you mention it and I think about it, I'm ok with installing 3 programs (bitcoind, cgminer, p2pool). Like you mention, a monitoring tool that would start and monitor all 3 programs would be nice.
