Where is the pool node's fee set? In the command line I assume?
Yes, when you run the start command for it, it's a flag. -f 0.25 is 0.25% -f 1.0 is 1%

Someone has been mining using my pool for a few days and hasn't received a payout: http://disco.cn.mu:9332/static/graphs.html?Day
They are using address 1LMW4R99Pn5tWTfhBd5iLXEtBWaJzNb7PE , you can see they are running at ~2Ghash on the charts.
Is the graph below them their payout for the next block we find? I guess maybe they just hadn't found a share yesterday when we found the last block?
yes the graphs below a BTC worker name is they payout they would get They are using address 1LMW4R99Pn5tWTfhBd5iLXEtBWaJzNb7PE , you can see they are running at ~2Ghash on the charts.

Any reason why p2pool wouldn't connect to the p2p port of the client?
I edited the p2pool source to add an altcoin and it connects to rpc but when it gets to the testing p2p part it just hangs there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you set a maximum amount of connections in bitcoin.conf? If so, restart the client and start up p2pool before it hits the limit (or just raise the limit).I edited the p2pool source to add an altcoin and it connects to rpc but when it gets to the testing p2p part it just hangs there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I believe it might have something to do with the version bytes.
Atleast that is what I was told seen here:
Code:
namecoin=math.Object(
P2P_PREFIX='f9beb4fe'.decode('hex'),
P2P_PREFIX='f9beb4fe'.decode('hex'),
I need to find the value that corresponds with the p2p version header from the coin I am trying to add.

Take this as constructive criticism, BTCMiner, please.
They're not a hit, because you still have terribly high latency, and poor efficiency. Your nodes all seem to be reporting a different pool speed, too - they're all out by 0.5-1TH/s which I don't quite understand.
I think you need to address the big issues with your nodes before you expect anyone to mine on them.

I've reset the nodes and they all seem to be 0.1s latency, I can't really help the fact that they don't have closer nodes to connect to. (At least to my knowledge)
The poor efficiency would be easily explained by, that they haven't been up very long to be quite effective. If they had a month or two on them with people mining, I would assume that they would be doing quite well!
I think the big issues have been dealt with, just need some miners.
If no one wants to mine on them, that's fine; I'll just shut them down. I'm trying to offer reasonable outlets to users who may not have the means to run a server, have one close by. I'm paying money out of my own pocket for these to run on a mere 0.25% (Don't think I'm planning a vacation to Hawaii or Jamaica quite yet.) August 07, 2013, 03:51:10 PM
My node does pretty good now that I stuffed it into a virtual machine vs running on the bare hardware... I don't understand it but....
Is it the best? Probably not..

@btcminer do you share the data directory between the pool servers?
Yes, I made a quick compressed file so that everything would install quickly.

Changed the setup of my pool. It obviously was not a hit.
I did however, launch 3 new pools! One in San Francisco one in New York City and one in Amsterdam. I did put a 0.25% Fee on there as running 4 nodes, does cost a bit of money.
Let me know what y'all think?

I'm doing a very small 2.5GH/s between my few remaining GPUs and the little ASIC USB miners.
I run my own P2Pool node, and I got a lot more in 24 hours on P2Pool compared to BTCGuild.
I'm still trying to stabilise the machine, then I'm hoping a few folks will mine on my node. It's only little (Celeron 847 dual 1.1GHz).

Ok, so essentially p2pool's share difficulty has been increased since I'd last used p2pool, making variance for small miners too large? And the only reason I was getting the payouts for my fee before was because of the recent good luck?
Yes. p2pool now has 4.2 TH/s instead of 400 GH/s and shares are now once per 30 seconds instead of 10 seconds, so the share difficulty is much much higher than it was a month or two ago.
Fees have always been luck-based. They are awarded randomly, but average out to your percentage over the long term.
Mining, in general, is becoming pointless for small miners. We are fully in the age of ASICs, these days. But for small miners that are satisfied to see a few satoshis trickle in every day, p2pool is not an optimal pool choice. Pick some PPS pool that will pay you for diff 1 shares.
