okay just a long shot here.

Try changing the DNS address's listed in the connection, don't use the reouter default. Use 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4
this might solve your problem if you are connecting via cable?

I tried to open up the config file but I get something like this:

~
~
~
~
~
~

and nothing else.
So how can I edit something that is not there?

BTW the miner is connected directly to the modem via cable.




that because you are not editing the correct file
you get that when you open a NEW file

you need to make sure that you are in the correct folder


Ok, I understand. How do I get to the correct folder?



ok
once you are connected with putty

type this


cd /etc/init.d

vi cgminer

you will now be editing the correct file

Use comand cd
Cd  /etc/init.d/

Then vi /etc/init.d/cgminer

Or just
Vi cgminer

are you attempting OC?

You have had the miner working without?

No OC, I am not planning on overclocking.

I need to modify a file in order to bypass the NTPD error as described here Page 2: https://github.com/AntMiner/AntGen1/blob/master/manual/AntMiner%20FAQ.pdf


you need to use a program called putty
if you are stuck i can help you out


I have got Putty but I don't know how to use it, so yes I AM STUCK Sad

Please help me Smiley

I fixed mine as described in sushi's setup guide by adding the ip's.

Can't you just explain to me how to use Putty and modify the file I want to modify? Smiley

I basically need to do exactly what the pdf says I should do as I keep getting the NTPD error in my system log and the machine is not mining.
it would be a lot easier to let someone like  elastickband connect to your computer and set it up for you.
if you make a mistake you might not be bale to fix it

I can try, I am not the best with writing or describing.

First connect to the miner using putty by entering it's IP address

enter the user name which is root

enter the password which is user defined

enter this txt - vi /etc/init.d/cgminer.sh  this brings up the config and the ability to edit.


hit the "r" key, this enables the ability to write over current text. You must push "r" before writing over each piece of current text.

when down hit esc buttong then type a ":" and then type wq

then /etc/init.d/cgminer.sh restart should restart


EDIT: the above is not accurate. I would have to run it through myself to find out exactly
