I'm new to mining and thought I would give it a try. I did ok mining on pools but like many others I wanted to give solo mining a try. Mostly because I saw a message saying you found a block for the pool!
Problem is I don't think it's working. This is what I get when I try.

After that it's just repeated over and over.

The thing that worries me is the "blktmpl error: Unrecognized block version, and not allowed to reduce or force it" and "Pool 0 is hiding block contents from us".
Here is my botlecaps.conf:
rpcuser=tony
rpcpassword=x
rpcallowip=*.*.*.*
rpcport=8385
addnode=69.85.86.195
addnode=50.137.233.14
addnode=69.10.44.115
addnode=192.64.86.238
daemon=1
server=1
listen=1
block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493
And this is my bat file for starting:
bfgminer --scrypt -o http://localhost:8385 -u tony -p x --zeus-cc 6 --zeus-clk 328 --request-diff 128 -S zeus:\\.\COM5 --no-submit-stale
I started the wallet with -server.
I'm not sure what is causing the problem. My wallet has been synced. All the settings and conf I got from various "how to's" on the internet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
