what does exranonce do?
It says to the work source that is providing you with work, that they are allowed to change the coinbase transaction however they like whenever they like.
It is a major security risk.

Hi, can somebody tell me the commands to put in ubuntu command line after I downloaded the git repo for cgminer 4.9.1 how to include the extranonce subscribe extension please? I see all kinds of links to where it is but I don't know how to merge it with the one on my computer.
Thanks

A quick update for Spondoolies users (SP20, SP3x): if you upgraded to a recent stable firmware you'll have an option to set "ExtraFlag" = "2" at the "Settings" page. After setting this flag you only have to reboot the miner (not just restart the mining, but actually reboot it) and it will boot into cgminer4.8.0 with extranonce.subscribe enabled (no need to use SSH, etc.). Then set your pool connection URL and you're all set:

stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334#xnsub

or

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3334#xnsub

same firmware as i have used but still a ton of discards accepted=5107 discarded=321456 seams very high to me
i have followed the nicehash/westhash guide

same here, i don't think this is a problem, pool registers full speed of the miner so don't worry

what can I do after I check if the SP20 have the cgminer4.7.0 or 4.8.0?

in the pool configuration does the #xnsub parameters goes after or before the stratum+tcp:URL address?

If you have cgminer4.7.0, then first update your miner to the latest firmware. And then you have to use SSH (download putty on windows or use "ssh" command on linux/mac). You can connect as "root" (password "root") user to your miner's IP address and then issue these commands:

cp /etc/bin/cgminer /etc/bin/cgminer.orig
cp /cgminer-extranonce  /usr/local/bin/cgminer
cp /cgminer-extranonce  /etc/bin/cgminer

Then set your pool connection URL like this:

stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334#xnsub

or

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3334#xnsub

And restart miner.

Now you'll notice cgminer4.8.0 version on your miner's home page and extranonce should be enabled.

it worked! thanks you very much!!
