rpc json outside localhost I tried to to host bitcoin core json-rpc to listen other than localhost but it would not work even i set it to listen to ip 0.0.0.0

My config (for bitcoin.conf)

testnet=1
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1
rpcuser=something
rpcpassword=secret
rpcport=8332
rpcconnect=0.0.0.0


So how do i make it so that it will listen to ip other than localhost or 127.0.0.1?

VPS informations:

Ubuntu 16.04

Latest Core (just installed it today)

client is remote
The listen option is for the P2P network connection, not the RPC service.



The option you want is rpcallowip=&lt;ip&gt;. To allow all IP addresses to connect to your node's RPC port, you can use rpcallowip=0.0.0.0. Note that doing so is not recommended as it is insecure.



Don't set rpcconnect as that will make it impossible for bitcoin-cli to interact with Bitcoin Core.
