All of the stratums are down for me on x11/x13 too.

You can also set algorithm per pool

Code:
{
"pools" : [
... {
"url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3336",
"user" : "btc-add",
"pass" : "p=0.8",
                "pool-algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod"
},
...
}


I'm having a big problem with multi-algo. If I only use pool-algorithm (using only x11 and x13) sgminer starts with "Initialising kernel ckolivas.cl with bitalign
..." although ckolivas is not specified anywhere in the config. Therefore i get only rejects and HWs.

This is my config that will NOT work

Code:
"pools" : [
        {
                "name" : "NiceHash_X13",
                "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:4337",
                "user" : "****",
                "pass" : "f0=0;f2=0;f3=10;f4=7.75;f5=0;c0=0;c2=0;c3=1.7;c4=1.7;c5=0",
"pool-algorithm" : "marucoin-mod",
                "pool-nfactor" : "10"
},
        {
                "name" : "NiceHash_X11",
                "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:4336",
                "user" : "*****",
                "pass" : "f0=0;f2=0;f3=10;f4=7.75;f5=0;c0=0;c2=0;c3=1.7;c4=1.7;c5=0",
"pool-algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod",
"pool-nfactor" : "10"
        },
        {
                "name" : "Waffle_X11",
                "url" : "stratum+tcp://eu.wafflepool.com:3331",
                "user" : "*****",
                "pass" : "x",
                "pool-nfactor" : "10",
"pool-algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod"
}
],
"gpu-memclock" : "1500",
"gpu-powertune" : "0",
"intensity" : "18,18,18",
"worksize" : "256,256,256",
"lookup-gap" : "2,2,2",
"thread-concurrency" : "8192,8192,8192",
"gpu-threads" : "4,4,4",
"failover-only" : true,
"failover-switch-delay" : "30",

"temp-overheat" : "80",

"api-network" : true,
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "120",
"api-allow" : "W:192.168.1.0/24"
}

I'm running this with Cgwatcher, which can be tricky sometimes. Do you have any ideas what could be wrong? Running fine with "non-pool" algorithm though, but in taht case I cannot use multi-algo.

P.S. Password does not matter which I use, same result

Nice work!  I don't use nVidia miners, but it's creative work like yours that keeps the interest in mining fresh.

Thanks for helping the community!

Being that I mine on NiceHash with nVIDIA cards I can't use the auto-switching feature because the best nVIDIA mining tools (ccminer and cudaminer) don't support it.  To that end, I've come up with a Windows Program, Nice Hash Control which can start and stop mining apps based on which one is currently most profitable.  Hope this helps, and please send a few mBTC my way if you find it useful.

We have applied filters that are filtering out many nasty things. And we are still under various forms of attacks, but keeping them back off. However, the system should be working fairly well now. I just hope your IP didn't send too much rejected shares, because then it will get banned Wink

We will try what is going on with nscrypt, but since there are miners working on it and hashrate is not decreasing, it should be issue on your side or your IP being temporary banned. Can you try with another IP?

You have to come up with something that doesn't ban existing users. I've been mining with the same few usernames since forever. My IP hasn't changed. How could I possibly be banned? And yes, I've had ridiculous amounts of rejects THAT ARE NOT MINE, I've even posted a screenshot earlier in this thread. Maybe some smartass was using my username for DDOS but definitely not my IP. Whatever criteria you're using for the ban you need to loosen it up or remove altogether for existing users. I can't see what you could possibly gain by banning users who've been mining for months.

The ban is always related to IP only. The rejects thing is cgminer/sgminer going crazy sending many duplicated shares. This is a known bug in cgminer, and probably not fixed in sgminer. I doubt it is related to your issue, because you are saying that you have been banned now and now when these rejects happened. The ban list is periodically cleared, so just wait some time and you will be good to go again.



Look, I don't care either way. I'm just saying you're losing revenue with a blanket ban like that. Or maybe you're thinking there is enough providers as it is. Whatever. None of what you said justifies banning legitimate users though. Especially if there is a known cgminer bug then a streak of rejects should not result in a ban of an IP that has been making you money for months. Not to mention my banned rigs are running cudaminer/ccminer so none of that is relevant anyway. Me pissed? Noooo  Grin

why do my rigs can't connect to x11 and x13 servers ? i tried all port : 4337,3337,4336,3336

12/15 of my rigs couldn't connect to nicehash ... any port

according to the graph my rigs didn't generate too much invalid shares and 3 of my rigs still able to connect, guess it's not a ban, it's something else Sad

Update : now all of my rigs couldn't connect, gonna use proxifier to change my ip then Sad

Can't connect to the Scrypt-N port for the last 4 hours now. Front page stats are wonky too, shows non-zero hashrate with zero miners on some orders. Scrypt rig is mining to a backup pool, so I assume it has issues too. X11 seems to be ok. I wish you guys had some more status updates. Like the twitter DDOS message from 10h ago - not sure if that's still ongoing?

Stratum pool has to use extranonce2 size 3 or higher. Minimal pool difficulty is 16 (0.001 for X11 and X13).

We had to change this, because some pools were using difficulty 1 regardless of hashing speed being sent towards them causing very high load on our servers thus bad performance. Every decent pool gives you ability to configure worker difficulty, so make sure you configure higher diff (we recommend at least 4096 or more).
I had minimum difficulty set at 1024. I increased it to 4196. Still seems dead. What pool does nicehash think works best with its service? (don't say ghash.io)

You can see why the pool is dead if you check your orders page. You get status regarding all bridges.

"user" : "btc-add",
"pass" : "p=0.8"

You can also set algorithm per pool

Code:
{
"pools" : [

"url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3336",
"user" : "btc-add",
"pass" : "p=0.8",
                "pool-algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod"
},
...
}


Thx sgminer start and hash, but another trouble Smiley

Tried "algorithm" : "darkcoin-mod" or "algorithm" : "darkcoin" but speed is only between 1 to 1.3Mh/s on my R9 270 compared to the 2.02mh/s stable with the x11mod version.

Anyone have good settings for the r9 270 or can tell me if something else is wrong in my conf ? Smiley

my orders which have been mining on btcguild are suddenly dead (low difficulty). They had been alive for days and BTCguild is usually rock solid did something change with nicehash?

Soooo when is the next payout? cause there hasnt been one for almost 18 hours? if this is because of the DDOS attack then its all good. i was just curious when the next would occur.

There have been payouts: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&payments

Last two for all balances over 0.01 BTC and one before for all balances over 0.0001 BTC.
