One more thing, if your node is on the different machine than the Frost, (which
would be the case if you had to forward port 9481) then you have to tell the
frost where to find the node before starting it. Look for 'config' directory
wherever frost is, and edit the file 'frost.ini' (when frost is not running) you
should have a line like:
availableNodes=127.0.0.1:9481
You need to change 127.0.0.1 to the ip address of where your node is.
Of course this is assuming that your node is at the different machine than
Frost.
