I’ve had a Windows host up at 23.23.246.5 for both Bitcoin and Namecoin and I’d like to make sure its configured correctly.
So far when I run a netstat I see the services below and a few things bother me:
-
Why is Bitcoind listening on port 80?
-
Why are there no inbound connections to Bitcoin (Prod or Test) or Namecoin? When will I see them?
-
Is the target host 92.243.23.21:6667 running IRC? If so what is that for?
-
Are there any questionable connections here?
