Re: Next step - registering a domain
Port 8334 is the Namecoin peer port. I'm guessing that the namecoind packaged in FreeSpeechMe grabbed that port. The current GitHub code fixes that. I believe you can work around it by placing the following line in ~/.namecoin/namecoin.conf port=xxx Where xxx is a port that isn't in use. Incoming c...

Re: Next step - registering a domain
No argument from me there. Things need to be documented much better, for sure. I'll check on the Linux packages... I'm not sure why the GUI isn't showing up for you. EDIT: Ah, I see. That exact link goes directly to the namecoin package rather than Peter's repo generally. I think you can get the GU...

Re: Next step - registering a domain
See https://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.p ... 523#p14523 ; it's broken on OBS's end, but there is a workaround at that link. OK, that works but it just installs a system version of namecoind - I thought "namecoind-Qt" was supposed to install a wallet which made registering .bit names easier? Ther...

Re: Next step - registering a domain
Starting namecoind from the terminal will yield different results from what FreeSpeechMe does, because FreeSpeechMe uses a bunch of command line arguments when it runs namecoind. I assume that's related to what you're seeing. Yes, of course - the point I was trying to make was that the normal start...

Re: Next step - registering a domain
Could be, or maybe not. In the past I had created broken setups on my machine that run "half a namecoind", i.e. the .bit resolving works but namecoind doesn't accept RPC commands (e.g. name_new or getinfo) from a terminal window. This causes the couldn't connect to server error even with a properly...

Re: Next step - registering a domain
phelix, Yes the daemon is running - I periodically look at the tailed debug log to see what the latest "height" is . . biolizard89, It looks like the Linux build is for Ubuntu (I use Fedora) - anyone thinking about building an RPM? I will have to look at the building later when I have more time. Bot...
