BTCDig - mining pool

Note that any risk of discovered passwords is mitigated by pools that have worker accounts (like slush's) and where users use random passwords, different from the main account password, for the worker accounts.

This standard was started by bitcoind, and is used outside of pools. Furthermore, if I intercept a worker password, I can make an attack look like it's coming from another user, possibly getting them kicked off the pool server.

Such attack easily discovered by IP or if user usually use another miner.

Sadly with current SSL certificate market and browser behavior, good certificate with "green bar" too expensive fro small project.
Or self-signed or cheap "blue" SSL certificate with fake 99% "browser compatibility" ($10-40/per year).

There are many companies giving SSL certs for free. And those are recognized by most browsers (IE7+).
And this isn't a small project

Actually the users who asked for SSL may not trust even the root authorities for 100%. The Comodo was already "hacked" a couple of weeks ago.

You a ready pay something like $400+ per year for complains from such not trusted users?

Related to HTTPS: I am planning on adding support for HTTP Digest authentication, on top of current HTTP Basic auth. While not perfect, and SSL is better, this will move community away from sending base64-encoded passwords (easily decoded) frequently over the 'net.

The main account login should be secured with TLS, since the destination wallet can be changed with that password, but the worst you could do with a worker account password is request/submit work or try to screw around with the pool under someone else's name. (And the pool operator would readily be able to tell that such requests were coming from another IP anyway.)

Have you considered CACert? I use them for my certificates. They're not trusted by most browsers by default, but it's pretty easy to install the root certs.

Thanks for your advice, but if i'm going to support HTTPS, i'd try to get something supported by at least IE7+, if possible :)

Yes, i know about demand for HTTPS. It will be added as soon as i get SSL certificate (a couple of days, i hope).
Sorry for delay.

What exactly are the benefits of HTTPS?

With HTTPS conection it's harder to intercept the information between browser and server.

is it possible to have a column next to workers to show the amount of blocks that the worker has found?

Currently i don't have a complete history of this, sorry.

So I re-registered, used my old emailadress but changed my password. Now I can log on at the deepbit-site, but all coins i made are gone, and my miner can't login with my new userdata, but my miner can log in and is doing hash/s with my old userdata, but my new deepbit.account isnt makong a single cent.
Is it possible I was hacked? Or did I made some sort of mistake?
Thanks for help in advance

So that paypal thing was a joke or no? I don't use paypal personally but just wondering.

PayPal mining is a joke. But setting your PayPal address is not.

Sorry for being dense but what is the point of entering a paypal email address if it does nothing are you planning on making a use for it in the future?

PayPal payouts are going to be available soon. Hope so

Oh nice I wouldn't use paypal but great for those who do your pool just keeps getting better. Thanks for the dedication!
