Topic: Anyone have luck pointing S9 to local qt-wallet in server mode? (Read 131 times)

I'm working with an altcoin Universal Currency, but I didn't know where else to ask, and figured there are people with S9 experience here.

I'm trying to figure out how to use BFGminer as a proxy where I point several S9's to BFGminer and BFGminer has a local connection to the wallet server.

BFGminer has a good connection with the local wallet in server mode right now and is accepting information from the wallet, so this isn't the issue.

I set up either an http or stratum port in BFGMiner and for the life of me, using exactly what makes sense in the S9 configuration, the S9 cant communicate with BFGminer.

The desktop with BFG and wallet are on the same computer, the computer is on the same local network as the S9. S9 pings the computer fine. If i try to connect to BFGMiner using chrome when its in http port mode, I get the appropriate JSON data back, and a PXY 0 shows up in BFGMiner. So, I think BFGMiner is working properly.

The S9's I have been testing all connect properly to public pools.

I first of all would like to just connect one S9 straight to the wallet. The same issue occurs as with BFGMiner using the appropriate credentials. I have the right rpc ports being used and allowed, and also the the same rpc passwords/usernames set up.

Have any of you tried similar tests and succeeded? Is there something really dumb I am missing?
