On the futurebit node running solo. At the top of the miner page it says to connect to 192.168.xxxx:3333. On the node page it says local node address 192.168.xxxx:8332 with a connect link to the right of it. Bitcoin core default port is 8333. My local miners connect using port 3333. I have port forwarding for 3333 and port 8333. Do i need to set 8332 as a port forward as well? JUst a little confusing whats the port 8332 for?

Do not forward port 8332, that is for RCP communications with your Bitcoin node. For example, you could use port 8332 to connect Sparrow Wallet to your node. If you're concerned about privacy, that's a great way to keep all your wallet activities anonymous, but not something you want open to the Internet.

Thank you for the info much appreciated!
