It is showing payment received. Why is the receiver not showing any bitcoins received in his client?

Here's the current block count:
 - http://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcount

The address shows it was included in Block 129543, so once the client is caught up and includes that block the transaction should show.

Is it still not showing?  If so, there is the -rescan option on the client that can force it to re-scan the blockchain.



I'm the receiver of these coins...Thanks everyone for your help with my first bitcoin transaction.

Following the block I can see the status of my coins is "not redeemed"

 I'm running the mac os client v 0.3.21

The connection count is 0 and the block count is 127397 - so it looks like my client has not caught up with the fact that I am now the proud owner of 2 BTC's.

There doesnt seem to be any option for starting a rescan from this s/w.

Any suggestions on what to do now?

EDIT: Did some more reading - port 8333 was not forwarded to this machine. Forwarded the port from the router, and suddenly 120 connections and blocks coming in at about 100/minute.

EDIT2: And sure as eggs is eggs, they came in....

Thanks everyone - especially for showing me how to trace a payment.
