<e​longated:matrix.org> When 0.18.4

<3​21bob321:monero.social> Very soon ™️

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> It broke

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> first: nuked blockchain on windos

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> second: crashed repeatedly on windows

<o​frnxmr:monero.social> so, re-soon tm

<p​owow:chatwave.org> What changes will 0.18.4 bring? Is there somewhere I can read about it?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> no

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> cry about it

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> 🚀

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> (I would also be curious to see the whole changelog)

<p​owow:chatwave.org> I'd love to review the relevant pull requests so I can look at the code

<3​21bob321:monero.social> Windows defender deleting it ?

<n​eromonero1024:monero.social> does xmrig-proxy support monerod's block notification feature (--block-notify '/usr/bin/pkill -USR1')?

<n​eromonero1024:monero.social> discovered this interesting feature from jtgrassie's monero-pool

<k​ey_brolin:matrix.org> my relationships with crypto

<p​owow:chatwave.org> plowsof Ty!

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> good morning

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> XMR pls

<k​illercat103:xmr.se> You looking for someone or a place to exchange FIAT?

<p​lowsof:matrix.org> Killercat103 due to scams, this is not the place for trading - use a trusted escrow service for fiat.

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> for those still dealing with this ddos, you can add this to a fail2ban filter and other processes can deal with this stuff before monerod has to: CONNECTION FROM <HOST> REFUSED, too many connections from the same address

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> took my monerod mem usage from 80% down to 31%

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> googefu your way into fail2ban filters

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> googlefu

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> and don't forget to play with recidive

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> this 8gb box will survive!

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> of course i say that and it just froze. lulz

Maybe just update your node to have the ddos fix?

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> i did. on master at least.

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> with the 1 write instead of 2 pulled in

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> it made it more stable... it kept running instead of crashing, but i had like 6k connections

Do you have public facing RPC?

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> nope.

why do you have 6k connections then

--in-peers 10 --out-peers 10 and you'll be good

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> gotta run though. i dunno. maybe the zmq port. i noticed i have it bound in the conf file for some reason

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> How?

turn off zmq port then

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> zmq is a push server, isnt it

at least you can check which port these 6k connections use

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> and its localhost by default

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> the fix pr limits to 100 rpc connections.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> and p2p is 1 connection per ip

<g​ingeropolous:monero.social> i wonder if its also because the node is still synchronizing? would the new http blocker not work until syncd for some reason?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> nope it work whatever sync situation you are in

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> 6K connection on RPC is unlikely because there is a limit per IP

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> 6K connection onP2P is also unlikely because same

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Effectively ZMQ is the first suspect

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Would need zmq to be bound to 0.0.0.0

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> By default its localhost

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Something tells me a) youre not running the fix (maybe accidentally reverted it b) youre crazy

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> c) ofrnxmr is living in a simulation

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> hello

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> this is monerochan speaking

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> need support

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> for my

<p​laiwanone:matrix.org> job

<m​onerobull:matrix.org> what support

warning for being dumb plaiwanone

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> can i be mod

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> pls

<e​longated:matrix.org> Try harder

<k​illercat103:xmr.se> Yeah I wasnt going to but thanks for the heads up

<h​bs:matrix.org> Can the json file used to specify a wallet in monero-wallet-cli specify keys instead of seed? I've seen mention of 'key_data' in wallet2 but couldn't find the actual format

Hbs yes , a view only wallet can be restored from keys in the json file

Hopefully this makes sense github.com/plowsof/flipstarter-waas…7dd2702b5/app/setup_wallets.py#L323

Just include spendkey (i think)

<h​bs:matrix.org> anywhere I can find the expected syntax?

hbs ignore my json, you want generate_from_keys docs.getmonero.org/rpc-library/wall…?h=generate_from#generate_from_keys

<3​21bob321:monero.social> Gonna need a pgbouncer for monerod soon

<3​21bob321:monero.social> So you can run ntopng and map all the nodes to countries with geomind
