I will review if trying to connect to our .onion address is really an issue but my first instinct tells me it is a problem with your setup, please try the default setup on the wiki and tell us if the problem remains.
I will, but if you mean by default setup the one in the
section "manual CLI client setup"
nudd -tor=127.0.0.1:9050 -bind=12.34.56.78 -bind=127.0.0.1 -externalip=12.34.56.78 -externalip=nudpflyu46lzp5i5.onion -advertisedbalance=0.2
isn't that how a delegate is supposed to announce itself to the network?
Surely if I want to use the services of a delegate I don't need to
be one myself? Wouldn't just running Tor be enough?
We are doing some work on the server and will add new nodes soon, it should mitigate the problem.
It appears to be working now:
2014-06-13 23:15:03 SOCKS5 connected nudpflyu46lzp5i5.onion
2014-06-13 23:15:03 connected nudpflyu46lzp5i5.onion
You only need to set SocksPort or just use the default 9050.
Keep up the good work! Donation sent.
Thanks!
I would happily make a donation if dev team would show more support. I would love to try to be a delegate, to use and try possible annon functions tor is a great network to use but dev must elaborate a much more user friendly behaviour and with clear instructions. Wiki is nice but too geeky.
If you need any support just ask and we will do our best to help regardless of any donations, I am aware that the wiki doesn't document nearly everything and is a bit "geeky", we will work on expanding it but have some more pressing matters at the moment.
You need to download and run tor.exe for Windows (not the whole Vidalia bundle!), generate your .onion address and private key by enabling
HiddenServiceDir hidden_service
HiddenServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:11009
in your torrc and then listening on the appropriate ports with the config. Let me know if you are running into any problems with any of the steps.
I am having problems posting on here via Tor because bitcointalk seems to think that I am spreading spam, I am much more active on our forums where you can get all your questions answered in the newbie section and have it archived for other members with the same problem.
On exactly which block is the hard fork supposed to go into effect? Wanna know exactly when I should switch my scrypt miners over to something else.
