10 invalid blocks.

really?  Angry
Calm down, I doubt he can do manual verification in his sleep.

I know, and I'm not mad at him. I just wish that he did NOT have to do manual verification. What is going on with the block explorer sites because no doubt the issue is with them.

Mine with Tor.  It's way easier than setting up a VPN.  Slush and Eligius both have hidden services if you really want to hide your mining.

I didn't mine very long over Tor since i was just doing it to test, but the latency didn't seem to cause any problems.

Don't give up!!!

You have 5+ GH/s just raring to go...    
I am pretty sure that it is a max of only 2GH/s.  6750M's run between 40-60 as per  https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison

 Embarrassed

TOTALLY missed the 'M' designation - did my math with 150 MH/s (low-balling the 167 on said site) from the full-blown card.

I RTFM and still F'd it up...   Derp!!!   Tongue 

Still, two gigahash (with FREE power + hardware) ain't nothing to sneeze at... 

Good Luck bro!

Well if anyone has any suggestions of how to route out through 80, 3389... other open ports to a home computer and back to slush it would be great. 

Hi, you can set an openvpn on your mac PC. openvpn allow to change ports bindings so you can set it to port 443 and then use your home ADSL to mine.

(remember this is a mac).  I have a program that could send commands to the terminal for all computers at once. Using things such as GUIMiner just wouldn't be feasible.

Someone else mentioned Tor, it is still on port 8332, so that wouldn't work.

You have 5+ GH/s just raring to go...     (and free electricity to boot! But you already know this...)

How about trying to romance the network administrator and get her (unlikely, but possible) or him (basketball tickets?) to unlock that port and look the other way...


(I edited this post - what I deleted didn't add anything particularly usefull to the thread...)

Thanks for ALL you do Slush!!

There's no mining API on port 80, because of technical difficulties. What's the reason that port 8332 is blocked on your side? Are you behind corporporate proxy?

I'm not entirely sure, but that would be my best bet since it is at work. I know for sure that port 8332 is in stealth mode from an outside port tester "Shields Up!"

You could use a free VPN service...

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/7-completely-free-vpn-services-protect-privacy/

Mining is not very bandwidth intensive so you should be fine with any of those... or you could SSH tunnel through a VPS, or use a paid VPN...

I'm pretty sure vpn is also blocked, but port 443 is open.  I can connect to my home computer on 443, could that be useful?  Client with miner mac10.7 / home windows7.

This can be done, fairly easily, but you'll need a basic grasp on networking.  Port 80 is obviously open, so time to get creative in routing things through port 80 Smiley Port 443 is open due to SSL.

Create a server off site, or use a remote service that accepts connections on port 80 or 443 and you're set to go (you may need an internal proxy server routing the traffic outward through 443 or 80 if you have 35 seperate computers)

Setup a VPN/proxy on whatever open port you have to work with. Have the proxy forward requests to the pool server. I'm sure with a few IPTABLES or other firewall or networking tricks you can get around it.

Or maybe mine via the Tor network Smiley?

Just wondering if there is any other "normal" port that you could accept shares from.  It seems that port 8332 is blocked on my end and I cannot (not allowed) change it.

But he did say that he was going to add blockchain.info to the validation process so the pool can use either one to validate the blocks.  Im guessing he's working on it right now...

yep, BE.com is completely messed. Unfortunately piuk (blockchain.info developer) didn't respond to one my question, so blockchain.info integration isn't done yet...

yeah, slush has been having to validate blocks manually due to the blockexplorer issues.
