I run a mynode full node on a raspi for quite some time now and was playing around with Python scripts to connect and send txs. This worked fine until lately. Turns out the connection establish process fails because my full node refuses the connection request I send from my PC. Apparently, he's not fine with me connecting via port 8333 which I always did in the past. Why would the request be rejected? Both, full node and PC are in the same VLAN. Below a photo link from wireshark to a connection request with port 8333 (fails) and a request with port 8332 (no issues).

https://postimg.cc/gallery/7ZwCxDH (server responds to TCP handshake with a TCP reset (RST))

The relevant code block comes down to:

 import socket s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) HOST = "192.168.30.87" PORT = 8333 s.connect((HOST, PORT)) 

The full node is fully synced with plenty of connections (Tor and Non-Tor).

Below the result from netstat -tulp (updated with admin rights to show the program using the socket):

I only see localhost and 172.17.0.1 with port 8333, so thats odd.

In the bitcoin.conf I explicitly added the IP of my client PC to the whitelist (192.168.30.156)

Update:

So I checked with nmap and the port is closed:

admin@myNode:~ $ nmap 192.168.30.87 -p 8333 Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2022-11-24 01:42 CST Nmap scan report for 192.168.30.87 Host is up (0.0090s latency). PORT STATE SERVICE 8333/tcp closed bitcoin 

However using the ufw command it returns the port is already open. Any hints?

There's the port 8333 but it doesn't seem to be associated with Bitcoin. I assume it's listed because I opend it manually. So is the full node not using port 8333 at all?

  • Are you sure the Raspberry Pi node is configured to listen on 8333? What is in it's bitcoin.conf or equivalent? What shows up in netstat -tulp on the Pi? Commented Nov 23, 2022 at 16:45

It looks like the pi either has multiple Ethernet interfaces or, more likely, IP aliases - it has two external IP addresses and the bitcoin service is only bound to the 172 address not the 192 address.

The command `ifconfig -a might clarify this.

I also think the netmask in your rpcallowip=172.16.0.0/12 might not allow for 172.17 as that differs in bit 16:which is outside the 12 bit range specified?

The p option on the netstat command should show the process name but maybe that depends on being run with root permissions.

I believe restarting Bitcoind after sorting out the IP addressing in the pi, or at least configuring Bitcoind to bind to the 192 address, should resolve the problem.

Try adding

bind=192.168.30.87 

To your bitcoin.conf and restart Bitcoind.

  • See attached the ifconfig results. Not sure if that supports your assumption? Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 12:08
  • Regarding the rpcallowip=172.16.0.0/12 you're probably right, however shouldn't affect the node access via port 8333? (rpc is port 8332) The updated netstat -tulp shows that bitcoind does not use a socket with the 192 address. I clearly lack understanding, but for me that would have been the socket to communicate with all the other ip4 nodes I'm connected to....apparently the full node does that differently.

  • Try adding the bind directive I added to my answer. I assume you know how to stop and restart bitcoind Commented Nov 24, 2022 at 12:41
