Topic: How to setup a server to solo mine BTC/LTC on my lan? (Read 4613 times)
It is working now. Forgot to setup a tunnel to hande the connection.
This is the nmap log from the litecoind host seen via the LAN:
Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2012-02-23 21:30 EST
Nmap scan report for 192.168.1.16
Host is up (0.038s latency).
Not shown: 997 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
135/tcp open msrpc
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
445/tcp open microsoft-ds
There is no rpcport 9332 open so I dont understand how I can connect in first place.
I tried putting the server in a DMZ but im not trying to acces it from outside my LAN so I thing it might be pointless...
Just to be sure:
$ nmap 192.168.1.16 -p 9332

When I scan the port of the machine running litecoind daemon, the port 9332 is closed.
I disabled Windows firewall.
How can I remote connect the others workers to the litecoind daemon via LAN?
You probably need to forward some ports through your router. Or put the server in a DMZ. Forwarding ports is probably safer. I disabled Windows firewall.

I have issue connecting my other workers.
I edited litecoin.conf file to this:
testnet=0
rcpuser=user
rpcpassowrd=pass
rpcport=9332
server=1
When I connect minerd via local host: 127.0.0.1:9332 everything work! I even connected 2 workers to localhost successfully.
When I try to connect another workers from the LAN it cant connect.

Ok now I feel stupid everything should be there: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-litecoin-a-lite-version-of-bitcoin-launched-47417
I already mine with a pool but I want to learn how it works. Here at my house we have 3X OC I7s and couple old pc...
I just downloaded Litecoin source and I'm trying to understand how to solo mine with cpuminer first...
I want to know if it's possible to run one of the older computer as a server for the others to work as a team.

Check out p2pool. It's really easy to get running and will be lower variance than solo mining.
I want to combine my computing power to create a private mining pool on my lan. I understand how to setup the workers but I am unsure about the server side. I will use Ubuntu or Debian for the server.
I know there is Bitcoind but I am unsure if I need the same software for the LTC server.
Anyone could point me to the right direction?
Many thanks!
