I have created a guide on how to create your own monero mining pool for a single crypto-currency (not a multipool). I tried to make it as novice friendly as possible and explain every step. All you really need is a very, very basic knowledge of Linux and some patience. I feel like it's important for crypto that more people are capable of running a mining pool, or at least have the knowledge of it.

Here is an example of what you would be setting up if you follow the guide:

All the software used in the guide is free/open source.
I will try and create more guides as time goes on. I will also support the guides I currently have, so feel free to ask any questions pertaining to the guide. Anybody else that is knowledgeable with mining pool software, or linux feel free to help other users.
I will check this thread occasionally and try to answer some questions.
It's done. Now we have fully working pool!!!
