Well guys it took me a long time but I finally built the windows GUI client.

Link to download,]
[url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/75013537/PPCoin.7z]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/75013537/PPCoin.7z[/url]

Not working for me, getting a "the program can't start because of missing minggwm10.dll" error Sad

Give me a minute i'll look into it.

thanks

I've updated the link in my first post, turns out I forgot to include the libraries needed because QT doesn't do it for me :S.

Not looking good on 1.0.2:

Sep 9 04:27:01 xxx cpuminer[4808]: PROOF OF WORK RESULT: false (booooo)

This is normal on old cpuminer versions as they submitted difficulty 1 shares always. This means you get a bunch of false proof of works for those that don't meet the actual target difficulty.

Hi burnside,
Looks like I have reproduced the issue with cpuminer on testnet. I will continue to look into the cause in the next few days and will update if I have more discoveries.

Awesome, thanks!

Hi burnside,
It seems that recent code in cpuminer broke something. When I switch to cpuminer v1.0.2 it appears to work fine. Which version of cpuminer were you using?

Yeah, I tried 2.2.1 and 2.2.3. Unfortunately 1.0.2 is about half as fast as the newer ones. I'll give it a try overnight anyway.

Any idea what would keep 2.2.x from working on PPC, when it works for BTC?

I'm correct in my math. 60 servers x 16 cores x 2.5Mh = ....

I was being conservative at 2,000Mh. It's actually a bit higher.

I run the ltc.kattare.com pool, I have a semi-decent idea how it all works.

Is 'getmemorypool' returning the wrong coinbasevalue for PPCoin? it currently returns '1298080000' but the last block minted was '1298.17000000'. 1298080000/1e8 = 12.9808. Or am I miscalculating something?

If amount is represented in integer ppcoin is only precise to micro-ppcoin, so if an application needs to interpret raw data it needs to be aware that 1 ppcoin = 1e6 rather than Bitcoin's 1e8.

Yeah, I could try that.

Is there anything special about the pushpoold NothingG is using? I'd rather just start up my own PPC pool.

ppc.kattare.com? heh.

I run a bog standard pushpool setup with my pool, seems to work just fine.

Although in the long term (say a year maybe) ppcoin network will be decentralized similar to Bitcoin so one shouldn't get used to depending on this.

Thanks. I'm mostly concerned about checkpoints for now since ppcoin is so new and the blockchain aspects of it are less understood (by me anyway). I've set up a bitparking ppcoin exchange and I'll see how it goes as to whether it's a long term thing or not.

Is there a way with the RPC API to identify when the last PPCoin checkpoint occurred? So a merchant/exchange can know a safe point where a transaction won't be rolled back?

Yes it's already included:
ppcoind getcheckpoint

So is the only way to mine this coin is to run the client on the mining rig and the use something like cgminer ?

I can't get this to run at all and I know part of it is I suck at command line stuff.

I'm trying to use the gui client for my wallet, but I guess you can only solo mine this which likely means you have to run the ppc client on your mining machine. Is this correct ?

Doesn't have to be on the same machine. You can run ppcoind on a separate machine or vm, and allow your mining machines to connect via RPC by setting rpcallowip according to the examples in ppcoin.conf:
# if miners all on LAN 192.168.1.* rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
