Topic: Help, trying to go solo (Read 2990 times)
under win7 it works fine, gui miner was the problem and I don't use it anymore @ winxp+solo mining
In Windows 7, make sure that you can see the file extensions. Otherwise you can wind up with a file that looks like bitcoin.conf, but is really bitcoin.conf.txt. And that doesn't work.
every now and then I have RPC problems, on 2 rigs, both run Windows XP SP3,
I'm not sure but problems show mostly when a new block is found
I'm trying Win7 x64, no RPC errors for 9 hours but hashrate is 2-3% lower on 5870

Ah! Got it, you sent me down the right path xenon481
I added the line rpcallowip=XXX and after restarting bitcoin the remote clients connected.
Thanks!

Sounds like even though you are using the -server option, you may not have your bitcoin.conf file set up properly.
The bitcoin.conf file has just two lines at this time:rpcuser=XXX
rpcpassword=XXX
Am I missing something crucial to allow network connections?
Thanks!

I've amassed enough cards to get 2G/hash on my own so it is time to go solo.
I've setup my primary machine with (2) 5870 cards cranking away at 620M/hash quite nicely via poclbm and bitcoin running with the -server option.
Now I am trying to connect another machine to the primary over the local network, I am using the string:
poclbm --u XXX --pass=XXX--host=IP ADDRESS -v -w128 --platform 0 -d 0
No matter how I tweak things (IP address vs. host name, etc) poclbm just returns "Problems communicating with bitcoin RPC"
Both machines are Win7 Ultimate hardwired via gigabit ethernet, I have disabled the Win7 firewall on both machines.
Any suggestions? I'd really like to get the rest of my GPUs crunching away tonight!
