Just switched OS's and put this coin on a CentOS Linux machine. Cent seems to come with a pretty restrictive firewall out of the box. What ports do I need to both forward from my router and open on the CentOS firewall to make the coin get more than 8 connections ?
Like with BTC I had to open / forward port 8333, Ty.
Litecoin uses port 9333.
You may also want to add the following to your litecoin.conf, using 30 as an example but you can use whatever number you prefer:
maxconnections=30
