Just a reminder: to make node functional allow firewall connection on IP: 54.194.99.126, ports 11003, 21003 and Ferengicoin wallet application. Check if windows firewall is "on" under the layer of any other firewall that may be installed, such as Zone Alarm. I am working on setting up additional nodes, give me some time to accomplish this task and hopefully next week we will have more nodes running.
If wallet doesn't detect nodes rename ferengicoin.conf into coin.conf and place these command lines inside it:

daemon=1
rpcuser=ferengi
rpcpassword=ferpass1
addnode=54.194.99.126

Solo Mining
CPU mining: in the wallet open: help>debug window>console and type command:
setgenerate true
press Enter

or insert into coin.conf line (for automatic solo mining every time wallet starts without "setgenerate true" command):
gen=1

to verify your hash rate type command:
getmininginfo
press Enter
check field value in "hashespersec"

to mine with GPU or ASIC use mining pool and bfgminer, cgminer or any other program

for GPU or ASIC solo mining use local machine address 127.0.0.1 or localhost for --url (-o), port number and --userpass=your FER address with any password or --userpass from coin.conf: ferengi:ferpass1

Newly mined coins require 200 blocks to become confirmed (coinbase maturity minimum until 200 blocks found will remain "immature")
1% of all coins pre-mined
