Change the text in red – ie your username, password and your actual network. If you are unsure of your network search and run cmd and type ipconfig and hit return – This will give you your IP address. Example: If it is 10.100.0.23 then change the rcpallow to 10.100.*.
Once your LeadCoin wallet has been restarted and is synced to the network (Green Tick) it is good to go and can be left running.
Next, download the CGMiner. Note this has to be version 3.7.2 or less.
http://www.leadcoin.net/files/cgminer-3.7.2-mp-0.04.zipAgain, it will normally be downloaded into your ‘Downloads’ folder and so will need to be ‘unzipped’ into your choice of location. Also it is a good idea to make a short-cut to the cgminer.exe which can then be used to add command line options when running the file. The command line in the shorcut properties will look something like this, below;
C:\Users\jimc\documents\cgminer-3.7.2-windows\cgminer.exe –scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:27771 -u jimc.1 -p pass
When running this you should get a DOS window showing various info including a hash rate – like 211KHs.
Congratulations! You are mining LeadCoin! Every so often you will ‘win’ a block and receive coins into your wallet!
Please post your individual mining configs and command lines - Share the joy!
