user78: I bought some Namecoins a while back. With the upcoming Merged Mining patch, I reinstalled Namecoin 0.3.24.63 on my newly formatted computer, copied my wallet.dat from my backup to the right folder, and ... can't seem to figure out how to view my funds.
I ran namecoind -rescan, and then:
> namecoind listaccounts

{
    "" : 0.00000000
}

> namecoind listreceivedbyaddress
[
]

Am I using the right commands here? Is my wallet corrupt/empty? Should I just wait for the blockchain to download? In Bitcoin, if I remember correctly transactions I made using a backup wallet were visible immediately (grayed out) even before the blockchain was downloaded. Any more suggestions?
Update - I have all the blocks.

namecoind.exe getblockcount
  19062


user14: The best thing to do is wait for the blockchain to download.  With most wallet backups/new installations of bitcoin or namecoin blockchain downloading is usually the issue.  Many people seem to get a little impatient and think the program is broken when it's really just the download taking a while.
