Client node

Run client -h to see all available command line switches. Some example ones are:

-t - use Testnet (instead of regular bitcoin network)
-ul=NN - set maximum upload speed to NN kilobytes per second
-dl=NN - set maximum download speed to NN kilobytes per second

TextUI

When the client is already running you have an interactive, text command based interface, on the console.
Type help to see the possible commands.

WebUI

There is also a web interface that you can operate with a web browser.

Make sure that wherever you launch the client executable from, there is the www/ folder, along with its content. The folder contains web templates which are an important part of the WebUI application. You can modify these files to satisfy your look&feel preferences, even to add a new functionality to the web app.

By default (for security reasons) WebUI is available only from a local host, via http://127.0.0.1:8833/

If you want to have access to it from different computers:
