Topic: Monitoring Rented Rigs (Read 824 times)
They could create an api-group that has read-only access + the ability to switch pools. Then add your IP address to that api-group when the miner is launched. You can then use CGRemote on your computer to monitor it and switch pools. It's still in beta but this functionality has already been added.
Just thinking aloud here. If you are using Windows then you should be able to use powershell to execute commands remotely. I have executed console applications and batch files in that fashion. I think you should also be able to restart and/or kill processes.
The code for it is pretty simple to write. Let me know if you need any help.

I'm in the process of trying to rent some GPU hashing power. One thing that bites me in the ass over and over again is that I need remote desktop/teamviewer access to change pools. Many new renters don't want to do this as they are afraid I'll eff with their GPU settings and fry their cards. I'm not stupid enough to ruin my reputation like that, but of course, its the Internet and there is no reason to believe a random online.
So, is there any software options out there that allow me to monitor remote miners, but not have the option to play with GPU settings? I just want to change the pool its pointed at on a moments notice without having to notify the person I'm renting from.
