Somehow it works with: proxy.exe -o stratum.mining.eligius.st -p 3334
But get allot of warnings

This is the correct way to run it. Post your warnings. Probably normal behavior.

OK. And how do I configure BFGminer as Proxy for the blade ??
January 21, 2014, 03:43:42 PM
I do use bfgminer on my RaPi .. ;-)
But for the Blade, I Need the Proxy.
Does not work with - cu & -cp
It just does not connect with this command line:
proxy.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st -p 3334 -cu MY_ADDRESS -cp x
BFGMiner supports blades too. But for the Blade, I Need the Proxy.

proxy.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st -p 3334 -cu MY_ADDRESS -cp x

Could someone PLEASE tell me, how to configure the mining_proxy.exe on Windows to use with eligius and an Block Erupter Blade 
Right now, I try to start it with an .bat file with:
mining_proxy.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st -p 3334
But it just does not connect :-(
In the Blade config i have set the IP & port to the Win System and use my Wallet address:0 as user:pass
Thanks!!
I think most people use BFGMiner now? (README.ASIC) Right now, I try to start it with an .bat file with:
mining_proxy.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st -p 3334
But it just does not connect :-(

-cu and -cp are needed hence custom user and custom password

Nope... -u is NOT recognized .. !
Hrmm. Not sure then- I'm sure someone can chime in who knows that better than I do.
Try adding the port to the end of the address:
mining_proxy.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 -u YOUR ADDRESS -p x

Like someone said earlier, you can set your account up to voluntarily pay a fee to the pool.
When you consider, during the recent problems, Wizkid had to manually pay out a million bucks in BTC to get things caught up and that was 2 days worth!
If everyone just set their account to pay a 1% fee to the pool for a week, Wizkid would have enough to get some upgraded hardware/servers/infrastructure.
Please respond if you are willing to do this!

I've been doing this since I started using the pool.

Don't know if it would work quite the same way, but my hosting company just recommened I use the free cloudflare service to protect against DDoS attacks (was down for about 12 hours or so today, and then 3-4 times in the last 3 weeks).
As such, thank you wk for getting everything back up and running.

Have you ever wondered why cloudflare is free? It's because they can execute a MITM any time. Not that it would matter for pool stats, but just a consideration.

While I knew that you could donate manually to the pool, I didn't know you could set it up to take a fee. Someone above had posted that info. Can't recall who it was, but you know who you are, so thanks!
I set it to 1 percent, 33/33/34 respectively. Whizkid, if you do the accounting as I believe you do, and think it would work better set differently, please tell me so and I'll change it accordingly.
I would encourage everyone to do the same. It's on the configurable options link under the "my eligius" tab. This is a great pool, and deserves to be supported. 1 or two percent is cheaper than most other pools, and if enough of us do it, wk can quit his day job

Hi everyone...
Well, no real light way to put this... unfortunately the web server is completely choking on all of this data
The current setup, which has worked well for so long, just doesn't seem to be able to handle catching up to real time with such a large backlog (~48 hours).
I'm going to try to utilize another server to do the data crunching more quickly and then import into the web server and see if that results in a faster catch up. In the meantime I will re-enable the public stats page since it doesn't seem to be helping as much as I had hoped by disabling it. At least people will be able to see their 128/256 second hash rates and balances.
Sorry folks, please bear with me here. Keep in mind that Eligius has grown substantially since this was all designed. As it turns out the web side is not as scalable as I would have liked..... and I've used up my favors getting the main pool database server upgraded.
I have received a good amount of donations over the past few days (thank you all) and I do believe that I will try to put most of this into a web server upgrade soon.

We've been using Eliguis pool for months and are happily satisfied with the pool. It does have data presentation glitches once in awhile but that has no affect on our mining and payouts. It's a great pool competently operated. Well, no real light way to put this... unfortunately the web server is completely choking on all of this data
