Hi everyone, I just have a question whether these latest issues may have affected payouts at all or if I just didn't p2pool long enough?
...
1. if you have setup P2Pool...
Thanks for the reply...

If your miner can't see your PC then go into the firewall on your PC and or the AV firewall if you have one installed and either disable them both or add ports 9332 and 9333 to it.

I have 280 ~ 290 GH/s on my pool. I started one of my avy's on a my friends Wallet ID because he wants to run it at his place; I have setup --fee at 50%; and my one avy 107GH/s has yet to show any BTC's.
And boom, it's working! It was a combination of firewall and antivirus which is now sorted and I can connect Smiley

I'm getting other errors now though, but I'll read through this topic again first before I ask any more questions.

Thanks for the help smoothrunnings!

Can the armory be used on P2Pool with the Bitcond wallet?

Hi everyone, I just have a question whether these latest issues may have affected payouts at all or if I just didn't p2pool long enough?

I managed to set up p2pool and bitcoin-qt server node on my local pc and it all connected and synchronized, but I couldn't connect to it with my miner, so after enough head-scratching I needed to get hashing again and tried a couple of public nodes and mined for approx 40hrs at around 180GH/s, mostly at http://196.2.147.115:9332 [16dAGWVSbxT3Zek84FuUMQGccfdyih8KrK] (that node eventually gave out) and http://78.27.191.182:8349 [1Ky5rbwSGVXvBQuqa7d7d49TnVmcM5Kaq2] among others, but I've received no payment at all and I'm sure at least one block was found during that time.

I did jump around a bit while looking for the closest node with the lowest latency and shortest ping so that could have affected things.

Does anyone know why I received nothing at all for the time I spent? Was I just not on long enough?

Thanks for any clarification in advance!
1. if you have setup P2Pool using the defaults port 9332 is used for Bitcoin mining.
2. you have to be vigilant as there will be days where you see no payouts and other days were you see a lot of payouts; what I saying is P2Pool payout system doesn't work the same way as these fee based systems do.
3. make sure you open port 9333 on your firewall/router to your P2Pool server.
4. If your miners are on the same network as your server, use your internal address. Most firewall/routers don't permit you to go outside only to route back through.
P.S. my understanding is that payouts to the default address would be payouts to the bitcoind wallet running on the server node, so it would be a pool fee on a public node or it would payout to your local wallet if it was your own installation.

The fee is share based not fee based you see on major pools. The way it currently works if you don't have the --fee or -f option enabled the wallet ID you use on your miners is were the payment goes to. When you have --fee or -f enabled the %50 of the shares which I am guess is figured out in bitcoin shows up in your Pool's wallet.

the --give-author is for giving the developer of P2Pool a certain percentage of your mining.

Thanks for the reply I had p2pool and bitcoin-qt set up on my pc which would be 192.168.1.3 and my miner on 192.168.1.99 and my router with the default gateway to 192.168.1.1. I can access my miner from my pc through the network, but the miner doesn't seem to be able to 'see' my PC (I tried a ping from within the user interface). I'm not sure if it's firewall issues or something like that I'll have to look a little deeper. I forwarded port 9332 on my router but that didn't make a difference and I saw in the tutorial that it was optional so didn't think it was too important.

I just found it a little disheartening as I'd done most of the 40hrs on public nodes and didn't get a single satoshi... I would have liked to know if it was working just a little, but I guess I chose a bad 2 days  Sad

I'm going to give it another go after the weekend once I get some new hardware as I'll at least have one miner hashing while I test with another.

What's the current payouts to default address reflect? Is that the pool's bitcoin address or the miners?

Also when does the "local rate reflected in shares" and peers graphs update?

Has anyone any idea how to run p2pool with pp ? http://www.parallelpython.com/

I think it could help boost performance, if its running on all cores instead of normal python is on one core only. This would be the case with intel atom 330 prosessors for example ( 4 threads - 2 cores) 4x1600 mhz.

Installed p2pool on such a thing but there is peaks with 100% sometimes on one core, allthough the system is compiled with minimal gentoo -march=native...

Tried that jython 2.7 but had problems with twisted web with it..

Have to run it on i7 4.5ghz 32gb ram for now Wink

I think -f 50 is for the Windows version of P2Pool. I am running the Linux version.
It's the same on both. You can also use --fee 50.

Thanks Krak! I do have one more question for you, do I need to remove the --give-author 0 command from the startup in order for the --fee 50 to work?

Thanks


That's the donation amount to forrestv. Totally separate from the fee to you.  You really should put something more than 0 to be fair actually.  Just like the fee parameter though, it's in percent so --give-author 0.25 is 0.25% donated.

That makes sense. Sorry I am was going off the complete guide to setup P2Pool on Ubuntu that someone posted here. He never really explained it as you did what the --give-author was for.

Sorry I am still new to the p2pool, what do you mean set your fee? I am guessing I have remove the --give-author 0 from the startup command?

Thanks,

I don't use p2pool but from my google search it looks like "-f 50" will do what you want. It will assign 50% of the shares that come in to you, instead of the miner. (Not 50% of the amount paid, so it'll average out the same over time but may not work exactly as you expect short term.)

How do I setup fees on every payment with P2Pool?

I am asking because I am going to loan one of my miners to a friend who will be running on my pool. He's agreed on a 50/50 split. Since he and I are the only ones using this pool I don't have to about anything.

You not set it. Payment is directly from block. You can only set fee - how many % shares are count to node owner.

So if I want to set the fee so that 50% of the shares come back to my node how would I do that?

you set fee to 50, magic!
i bet you didnt expect that...
