I have just started getting my hands dirty with Bitcoin and I have successfully setup a pruned node on a Linux server but I can't seem to connect to this node from my Dev environment.

I keep getting a Connection refused error.

My Dev environment is basically sitting on my Mac and I'm attempting to connnect to the server with a cURL command.

On my server

Bitcoin.conf

prune=600
maxconnections=12
maxuploadtarget=20
rpcuser=xxxxx
rpcpassword=xxxxx
daemon=1
rpcport=8332
keypool=10000
rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0
server=1

When I check the 8332 port from a third party service, it says the port is closed. Port 8333 seems to be fine.

What am I not doing right ?
