is it possible to test a smart contract on a private net with two or more nodes? With nodes I mean two different machines, either virtual or physical, doesn't really matter.
I tried running geth with the usual commands however, the two nodes didn't seem to find each other, as netstat did not show a connection between the two.
All running on the same local network.
What can I do to debug this?
You can connect nodes with the --bootnodes command line option of geth, or with the console command admin.addPeer. Check the documentation Connecting to the network.
