I haven't had much luck finding all the options that can be passed to bitcoin/bitcoind when it's run... -connect, -addnode, and -server are the ones I've seen so far. Are there others?
What exactly does -server do? Also, it seems that -connect and -addnode have pretty similar functionality... My best guess is that -connect is to force only one explicit connection to be made, whereas -addnode just says "make all the connections you want, but by golly you better connect to , if nothing else." Is that at least close to right?
