thanks
but shouldn't I have more active connections?
It will find them as it goes along and my new VM that is currently downloading the blockchain is showing 4 active connections at this moment
Regards
EDIT :
Now 88 days left to catch up - but still syncing fine
Now 80 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 4 active connections
Now 68 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 4 active connections
Now 60 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 5 active connections
Now 40 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 5 active connections
Now 19 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 5 active connections
Now 10 days left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 5 active connections
Now 13 hours left to catch up - and still syncing fine with 5 active connections
Finished.
So that took just over 1 hour to sync the blockchain without a Coino.conf file - and no issues. The active connections were going between 4 and 5 most of the time.
There are points during the sync that seem to look as if the syncing has hung, but just leave it and let it get on and it will start moving again.
I hope your wallets are now synchronised but if not maybe we can have a look at your debug.log file to try and sort out issues you may be having.
