And changing your AmberCoin.CONF file to this will lock you onto the main servers only: (Modified from what Fuzzbawls posted to include all 3 servers.) upnp=0 listen=0 connect=ambercoin01.mooo.com connect=ambercoin02.mooo.com connect=ambercoin03.mooo.com
I can confirm this has gotten me back on the right track. However I did disable staking for the meantime. [/quote] Me too - as long as I do not unlock my wallet and begin staking my wallet seems to be okay. How do we confirm everyone has done likewise?

how to fix? What to do?
large amounts of posts the last days, so it's getting quite hard to find something within the mess... for you and anyone else stopping by now I've posted a solution here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=944408.msg13105815#msg13105815 but I suggest making your way through the posts of the last 4-5 pages as I do not have a complete overview myself edit: or just have a look at the post one above mine ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I am very happy ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) received block f9b766240abd9fb8ddcc SetBestChain: new best=f9b766240abd9fb8ddcc height=602058 trust=23586872002454935 blocktrust=3055183 date=11/30/15 22:23:53 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED getblocks -1 to 00000000000000000000 limit 500 Flushing wallet.dat Flushed wallet.dat 3ms CTxMemPool::accept() : accepted 1da9416671 (poolsz 1) received block 7bee8d0570a74b50f131 SetBestChain: new best=7bee8d0570a74b50f131 height=602059 trust=23586872006469055 blocktrust=4014120 date=11/30/15 22:24:21 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED Flushing wallet.dat Flushed wallet.dat 3ms received block 609ca650053c1b7173f7 SetBestChain: new best=609ca650053c1b7173f7 height=602060 trust=23586872011351108 blocktrust=4882053 date=11/30/15 22:24:33 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED getblocks -1 to 00000000000000000000 limit 500 getblocks -1 to 00000000000000000000 limit 500 Flushing wallet.dat Flushed wallet.dat 3ms received block 85a33d58ff7077b21fd9 SetBestChain: new best=85a33d58ff7077b21fd9 height=602061 trust=23586872018008480 blocktrust=6657372 date=11/30/15 22:25:15 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED Flushing wallet.dat Flushed wallet.dat 3ms Flushed 301 addresses to peers.dat 2ms

one thing i noticed while browsing the git repo late last night is that the acceptable time drift is ± 24 hours....thats rather HUGE!
What do you mean? Where is it in the code and what could it affect? https://github.com/AmberCoinDev/Amber/blob/master/src/main.h#L75-L76inline int64_t PastDrift(int64_t nTime) { return nTime - 24 * 60 * 60; } // up to 1 day from the past inline int64_t FutureDrift(int64_t nTime) { return nTime + 24 * 60 * 60; } // up to 1 day from the future
having such a large variance in acceptable drift time leaves the network open to a timestamp manipulation attack...which, ironically enough, can be used for (among other things) forcing a client to reject otherwise valid hashes/blocks resulting in forced forking. Here is an old article about timejacking. Even though it is quite old, the basic principles still apply: http://culubas.blogspot.com/2011/05/timejacking-bitcoin_802.html.

@lethax - another way to look at it is - you never really had them - it sucks but remember - if it is too good to be true - it probably isn't.

Don't get me wrong, I had some legit POS rewards too. I'm just saying how else could I have forked unless a POS created a block that got rejected, but my wallet carried on anyhow.
Fuzzbawls posted a perfectly good explanation end of last page.

I was connected to 02.mooo and 03.mooo and staking was on. I forked in a very short time. Then I restored the DB and resynced with my wallet locked and staking off and I have been running on the correct chain all day. I am not turning on staking until someone determines its not a problem or determines it is and fixed it.

Only if the proofhash I posted doesn't match what you have. I gather you've tried restarting your wallet? If he has 16 connections then he could be connected to some bad nodes too. IMO, he should restore the DB and fix his .conf file to set listen to 0 and connect only to the 3 main nodes (ambercoin01.mooo.com, ambercoin02.mooo.com and ambercoin03.mooo.com) And btw, I had the same problem with resyncing. It kept stalling. I just kept closing and restarting my wallet until it resynced completely. I had to restart 2 or 3 times.
