Ok got a few questions here now that I got my node up and running, wallet downloaded etc… I also went ahead and grabbed wallet713 for the grinbox functionality…
Anyways, Im about to buy my first Grins off of kucoin probably as im already registered there and no KYC is needed… However as ive done some looking around it seems most if not all exchanges only support withdrawing grins based on the http method and not using grinbox or the file method…
Ive edited the config file of the wallet and replaced the address with all 0.0.0.0 as it states to receive grin… the exchange suggests checking that your port is open to ensuer youll be able to withdraw the grins with no issue… however everytime i check it tells me the port is closed, regardless fo which port i use etc
now im looking into configuring the wallet713 file so that i can use it as my main wallet and be able to take advantage of the grinbox addresses but im trying to setup the listener on it with the node so that i can receive my grins off the exchange with this wallet as well…
can someone either help me to verify that i have everything configured right so i can receive grins with no issue
This is my config for the grin-server.toml file
#The interface on which to listen.
#0.0.0.0 will listen on all interfaces, allowing others to interact
#127.0.0.1 will listen on the local machine only
host = “0.0.0.0”
#The port on which to listen.
port = 3414
and this is the config for the grin-wallet.toml file
#########################################
WALLET CONFIGURATION
#########################################
[wallet]
chain_type = “Mainnet”
#host IP for wallet listener, change to “0.0.0.0” to receive grins
api_listen_interface = “0.0.0.0”
#path of TLS certificate file, self-signed certificates are not supported
#tls_certificate_file = “”
#private key for the TLS certificate
#tls_certificate_key = “”
#port for wallet listener
api_listen_port = 3415
Does this look right>>>??? and if so why when i use the port checker it says my ports are closed??? do i need to open the ports on the router sysadmin page>>>???
also if anyone is familiar with wallet713 how do i set up the toml file so that it listens on my node like the normal wallet… i followed the instructions online but this port checker tool has me skeptical…
also if anyone is willing to peek this over and then send me like 1 grin or even the smallest amount possible i will send it right back to you maybe even with a tip once i get mine off the ecvhange
EDIT:::
ok so found this guide here https://www.coingecko.com/buzz/how-to-use-grin-wallet-to-send-receive-grin-coins and followed it and went ahead and opened up the port as stated in the guide in my router sysadmin page… i have the wallet listening now and still when i check if the port is open on the port tool it tells me its closed…
ive tried using the IP the site detects and changing the port and its closed and ive tried manually enterring the IP that i get when i run ifconfig from the command line with the same port and its still closed…
pretty confused here and dont want my grin tied up in this exchange utnil i can figure this out so any help would be great
