Failed to connect to namecoind

[ulrichard]

I always get "Failed to connect to namecoind" from running DyName.py
The same configuration works for p2pool, and I checked it a couple of times.

If I try it in the interactive console, I get this:

namecoind_session = AuthServiceProxy('http://ulrichard:[email protected]:
7333')
blockheight = namecoind_session.getblockcount()
Traceback (most recent call last):

Here is the content of ~/.namecoin/bitcoin.conf :

I played with it for a while.
With python2 it works.
With python3 I couldn't get it to run.
So I just use it with python2 for now.

Hmm, that's interesting. I'll see if I can test sometime soon and see why Py3 would fail on this. Thanks for the report.
