Topic: How to mine Litecoins behind a proxy on Windows? (Read 7363 times)
Thank you. Setting the environment variable HTTP_PROXY helped. It is working now.
I'm using cpuminer right now to mine Litecoins. I'm behind a proxy and "minerd --help" doesn't bring up any options to specify a proxy.
What am I supposed to do?

According to the libcurl documentation, setting the environment variable http_proxy should do the trick.
This seems to work well under Linux:
Code:
export http_proxy=http://proxyaddress:port/
./minerd [usual options]
I don't have a Windows box to try it on, but I'm going to guess that./minerd [usual options]
Code:
set http_proxy=http://proxyaddress:port/
minerd [usual options]
will work.minerd [usual options]
It may also be useful to know that some pools (Pool-X for instance) allow mining on port 80.
