(In fact there are a lot of peers like this one.) This setup doesn't seem to work. It seems as if, with each restart, only on of the two connections comes online, not always the same one. The second connection is rejected when incoming.
I'm familiar with that collision, so not surprised.
Which is the mistake I made here? Or does the peer have to have two IP addresses as well?
Yes, that's very likely the case.
That is true. You have to use two addresses on the other side.
Dear Leo, dear Ondrej, Thanks a lot for making this point more clear again, so that even I was able to grasp it finally. ;)
But it would be a good idea to implement it in the future versions.
As I cannot reasonably ask a lot og peers to implement an unusal IP setup just for my special case, I'm going to switch to a completely different approach. But I'd like to strongly support the notion of implemeting a change in future versions. Best regards, Kai
