00:58:08 Hello 00:59:12 Hi 🙂 01:04:59 hi 01:05:04 So how is to work? , no one chat ?? 01:05:07 🙄 01:05:13 🙄 01:08:43 it works fine 01:09:26 Works perfectly! 01:15:14 genesimmons from kiss is a dogecoin memer now btw 01:15:34 sorry your nick just triggered me sethsimmons :p 01:16:03 😅 03:48:48 hello. I am attempting to set monero daemon with tor using instructions here: https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/tor_wallet.html# 03:49:07 everything seems to be working except i have 0 in connections 05:27:32 i think that is very cool. its just inevitable that stuff like this will happen, thanks for taking the initiative for the community. 05:29:04 choice is good :) 05:32:42 MONERO! IT'S THAT GOOD! 05:33:37 https://lbry.tv/@Monero:5/Maybe-you-need-Monero:6 06:24:47 Kudos for posting a lbry link 08:31:39 Btw, can monero at least verify sender?like a hash or smtg to verify it is that specific person sent to me 08:32:23 nvfanonlah[m]: https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/prove-payment.html 08:34:11 Thank you 08:34:18 nvfanonlah[m]: tl;dr: the sender can prove to you that they sent the payment, but you can't determine this without their involvement 08:36:27 Oh yeah makes sense for a secure transaction.thanks a lot awesome .i will consider using this in future 10:52:52 monero-dev 10:54:34 where 11:30:37 ?monero dev, where? 11:38:53 maybe #monero-dev 11:57:41 hello. I am attempting to set monero daemon with tor using instructions here: https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/tor_wallet.html everything seems to be working except i have 0 in connections 11:58:05 fully selfish node 11:58:43 Can you connect to it manually, for instance with telnet foo.onion 18080 ? 11:58:57 (with torsocks maybe) 12:01:29 https://monerodocs.org/running-node/open-node-tor-onion/ 12:01:34 worked wonders for me 12:02:19 thank you. i'll check the link 12:02:43 I am able to connect to the daemon with my wallet and wallet rpc using the .onion address 12:02:54 There's also a contrib/tor/monero-over-tor.sh script which should do it right. 12:02:57 only problem is myy daemon indicates 0 incomg connections 12:03:16 Then it may just take some time before other tor peers learn about your address. 12:04:21 yes. i was hoping that and left it over night, but it still says zero. the instructions say that the p2p part should not go through tor. only rpc conections.. 12:04:49 Have you added any TOR nodes to your config? 12:05:04 If using --tx-proxy, that's right. I kinda forgot about that. 12:05:42 yes. the onion hidden service is running. 12:05:50 Oh, the link you gave is about RPC, not P2P. 12:06:27 the instructions say: In this example, we don't use Tor for interacting with the p2p network, just to connect to the monero node, so only RPC hidden service is needed. 12:06:52 Can you post your monerod command line then ? Maybe something else is odd. 12:07:23 ok. i'll get from other machine. thanks 12:14:47 ./monerod –prune-blockchain –in-peers=32 –log-level 0 12:14:58 Height: 2291560/2291560 (100.0%) on mainnet, mining at 329 H/s, net hash 1.96 GH/s, v14, 12(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 0d 8h 7m 15s 12:15:12 2021-02-07 11:00:59.572 W No incoming connections – check firewalls/routers allow port 18080 12:16:15 Hmm.. so you're not using config file then? 12:16:33 that is not enough to run TOR node that is reachable 12:17:07 i'm using config file indicated in instructions no-igd=1 12:17:07 restricted-rpc=1 12:17:07 rpc-login=USERNAME:PASSWORD 12:18:14 add to your command-line --config-file /path/to/config/file to make sure it actually picks it up 12:18:33 ok 12:19:04 I see no tor config there. 12:19:47 Did you have any incoming peers on that node before changing anything to do with tor ? 12:19:48 he probably just want to access his node over tor, not connecting it to nodes over tor network 12:21:29 or? 12:23:14 I am able to connect a remote wallet to this daemon no problem. Just the daemon or tor? wont allow incoming connectionsuld use 12:23:43 specifying config path still indictes 0 in. i'll let in run more 12:25:07 the daemon gives this eeror after while: No incoming connections – check firewalls/routers allow port 18080 12:25:23 this is the port indicated in instructions 12:25:35 Yup, that indicates you can't be connected over clearnet 12:25:39 but i thought that would be the rpc port not p2p 12:26:15 Just scratch anything you've done so far and start from the beginning, using this guide https://monerodocs.org/running-node/open-node-tor-onion/ 12:26:34 saves time and headaches 12:27:17 oh yeah. ok ok. i'll do it. thank you 12:28:21 just set public-node to 0 20:08:10 https://localmonero.co/knowledge/monero-better-store-of-value 20:56:01 The monerodocs.org thing is amazing, never knew it existed before. 21:00:46 IIRC it's out of date. Someone popped in a month or two ago relying on it and it was wrong. Can't recall what exactly though. 21:17:32 what should ulimit -l show? monero is telling me it isn't big enough 21:18:23 Double it till it passes. It's not clear how much is needed. 21:20:58 apologies, what is the general command to increase it? 21:21:34 ulimit -l X, with X being a number. 21:22:00 thank you 21:22:33 bother, now it tells me it exceeds a hard limit 21:23:05 Is this all held in a file somewhere? 21:23:24 Need to be root to increase the hard limit. 21:23:34 Probably. Not sure where though. 21:24:32 Looking at the man page, looks like -H to set the hard limit. 22:19:21 sudo ulimit -l BIGNUMBER 22:19:41 but not too big :| 22:23:15 over 9000 23:48:11 How good of an idea is to mine using the official monero wallet? 23:49:19 It instructs the daemon to mine. It's slower than a pool miner. If you intend to mine solo, you can use a pool miner with the daemon (rather than wth a pool). 23:53:34 And comparing pool and solo mining what would be a better idea, I probably would just cpu mine, and can the daemon can be used to pool mine?
