# novacoin.conf configuration file. Lines beginning with # are comments. # Network-related settings: # Run on the test network instead of the real novacoin network. #testnet=0 # Connect via a socks4 proxy - default none #proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 # Accepting incoming connections #listen=1 # Enable UPnP negotiation with router/firewall to accept incoming connections #upnp=1 ############################################################## ## Quick Primer on addnode vs connect ## ## Let's say for instance you use addnode=193.23.181.148 ## ## addnode will connect you to and tell you about the nodes ## ## connected to 193.23.181.148. In addition it will tell ## ## the other nodes connected to it that you exist so ## ## they can connect to you. ## ## connect will not do the above when you 'connect' to it. ## ## It will *only* connect you to 193.23.181.148 and ## ## no one else. ## ## So if you're behind a firewall, or have other problems ## ## finding nodes, add some using 'addnode'. ## ## ## ## If you want to stay private, use 'connect' to only ## ## connect to "trusted" nodes. ## ## ## ## If you run multiple nodes on a LAN, there's no need for ## ## all of them to open lots of connections. Instead ## ## 'connect' them all to one node that is port forwarded ## ## and has lots of connections. ## ## Thanks goes to [Noodle] on Freenode. ## ############################################################## # Use as many addnode= settings as you like to connect to specific peers #addnode=193.23.181.148 #addnode=91.235.143.61:7777 # ... or use as many connect= settings as you like to connect ONLY # to specific peers: #connect=193.23.181.148 #connect=91.235.143.61:7777 # Maximum number of inbound+outbound connections. #maxconnections= # JSON-RPC options (for controlling a running novacoind process) # You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api #rpcuser=Ulysseys #rpcpassword=YourSuperGreatPasswordNumber_DO_NOT_USE_THIS_OR_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_385593 # How many seconds novacoin will wait for a complete RPC HTTP request. # after the HTTP connection is established. #rpctimeout=30 # By default, only RPC connections from localhost are allowed.
