man this feast or famine crap sucks.

Well the famine part does anyway.  Smiley

It sucks only if you evaluate performance on a daily basis.  If you evaluate the pool performance on a longer term (like monthly or quarterly) then the variance is no big deal and this pool cannot be beat.  Smiley

EDIT:  The biggest issue for me is now that the halving has taken place can I still pay my operating costs and have anything left over.  It doesn't matter how much better this pool is over all others, if I can't cover my costs then it is over for me.  I have until October to decide. Sad

I sure hope the math works out for you, Carl. Not only for your profits, but my my selfish reasons, because I can't imagine Kano pool without you here announcing our blocks. You're like the "play by play" announcer for the baseball game. You're half the fun of mining here  Smiley

Thanks for the super fast reply, I will just ignore them until I get my head around doing firmware upgrades, now that looks like a challenge from all I have read. Anyway, again, thanks for super fast reply.
My S3 firmware upgrade isn't actually a firmware upgrade, just a change to whatever firmware you are running (though should be latest)
So it can't brick it Smiley
The readme says the steps.

Had a read, but getting tired now and need sleep after doing all nighter.

Does your firmware upgrade fix the issue that cause below when logging in through luci ?

/usr/lib/lua/luci/dispatcher.lua:448: Failed to execute function dispatcher target for entry '/'.

I will have a read up later on ssh and putty and see if I can get back into my S3, for now it appears to be hashing quite well.

Hopefully I get onto the acclaim page soon then heading to the top.

The blocks are coming in nicely now.  Smiley

Hmmm ... quiet in here.

Ruu \o/

Yesterday I put the S1 back at the pool, after deciding i didnt like dust payments mounting up over the next week I will be going to hash more, after reading pretty much 900+ pages in this forum thread I had the inspiration to get my S3 running into the pool, which I have now done, however....

From looking at stats, I am getting a hell of a lot of discarded, wondering if it is normal after switching from 1 device to another, or do you think I could have a problem with the S3 that I have bought ?

Accepted 863
Discarded 8,346

Any help and advice will be appreciated. Thanks
Discards are irrelevant. Ignore them. It's just the shit way bitmain configure cgminer in their firmware. Alternatively, grab Kano's S3 binaries.

Hi All,

I am a noob to mining, got given an S1 cpl of weeks ago, after lots of reading i pointed it to ck pool, then, after more reading, pointed it to solo mine as a lottery, since last week, I have got the mining bug, and now also have another S1, an S3 and an S5 on the way. With quite a few power supplys also in the post.

No zuo no die why you try, u zuo u die dont be shy
Hey Tony,
As I understand it the S9 has an open API that will let anyone logon to it and change what they want if they can get on your network.  Typical from Shitmain, get behind a firewall and you should be good until those with more knowledge of this chime in and give you better/more detailed advice.
This is assuming you have an S9, not sure about the others but if one is open...

Then even more important that you vote for a Bounty at the software section i have set up. I want to get rid of this Stupid BMminer.

Which I have already done so the day you started it, sir. Smiley

Alright, well I started mining on Kano in late April with 150 TH and have ramped up to almost 300 TH.

Couldn't be happier - the pool is awesome - but I want to do my part and find a block!!  According to my math, I'm more than overdue...

What do I need to sacrifice in order to get on the acclaim board?

I found an easy way to edit the conf file on the S9 and the S7.... or should we say a faster way than SSH.
Go in to the miners "system" tab and choose "Upgrade" and then "generate Archive"... Notice this workaround only works for the miner you are generating, since it copy`s also the Static IP.
Install program 7-zip on your PC, since it can open *.tar containers.
Right clik on the downloadet generated archive and right click and choose "Open" (NOT UNZIP).... then Hokus Pokus cgminer.conf is visible. Then Rigt click again and choose "edit"... Edit the conf file and save it through 7-zip.
File is ready for re-upload to your miner with those changes you made to the conf-file as one *.tar file.
I did it on 50pcs  S7 the other day, since the privileges was messed up in the later batches of S7.

I do not take responsibility if you mess up your miners, just saying this did the job so much easier for me..

The web issue is that the API is set by Bitmain to allow ANYONE with web access to your miner to change it.
They set it to W:0/0

At WORST it should be R:0/0,W:HomeNetwork/24 e.g. something like R:0/0,W:192.168.0.0/24

Where do you set it? I've no idea - they've ignored my suggestions to fix this and told me that the setup is what is easiest for Bitmain farms - yes they said that. i.e. they don't care about "your" miner security in the default setup.

For what it is worth, it is in /config/bmminer.conf

It's probably in /etc/config/cgminer or /config/cgminer or .... but I've not gone near a Btimain miner since I switched off my S5 ages ago.

... and FYI, I wrote the cgminer API, and it's default settings are off Tongue

Thanks for the reply. I do unfortunately open a port forwarding on my main router just so I can check my miner status outside the house.

Here's the router log of the access:

and 10:13 is about the exact time my miner got disconnected from my pool.

The access IP was 178.156.11.35 from Spain but it could be through a proxy.

Well you are port forwarding directly to the miner on port:80, and you left default user/pass as root?
It's like an open invitation for a hack.  Good thing you noticed quickly.
If you are going to open ports on your network you'll want to set up a specific VNC over SSH using a locked box.
Most people find it just easier to use a third party client like teamviewer or hamachi - but still you'll be going to a designated box that from there can use browser to control miners.

I totally agree that was stupid and lazy setup in first place but I am now so concerned how could someone from the other end of the world locate my public ip? I have never revealed that access port with anyone.

Did you ever change the default host name?  you can pretty easily scan IP blocks for the default host name and gain access that way.  On another note, how many pools do you have defined?  If only a single pool, if the pool goes dead then it will mimic and attack by locking up the miner and you have to do a hard reset.
