Nice! Parja

Also, please remember to use the new pool server: pool.simplecoin.us.

The old pool is still active and counting, but the sooner we all move over the better!

I'm there!
Should we use that address for stats too? Does it not matter?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand....... Another block before difficulty, that's 6 out of 7!

Nice work Parja!

Had to fix a stat on the website, but all is good now!

Wow, we've had a lot of attempted attacks these past few days.

Syn floods on 3 of the boxes, brute force ssh, brute force web login, sql injection just to name a few.

So far they only managed to slow down the new pool server and web response time with the syn floods.

It's nice to know they've failed so far, but I'm definitely going to use a few extra cycles monitoring and banning these jerks.

If you happen to get ip-banned, let me know... Sometimes these automated tools can be a bit over-zealous.

Thanks for the cgminer tip, I'll look at it in a few days time.

Best of luck with the server.  It must be difficult configuring and testing while simultaneously trying to maintain good uptime for the miners.  If it would be at all helpful to have a solid 24/7 miner pointed at a test server then let me know.

Sorry for the delay all, I had to rebuild my rigs (well, all but 1). Had a PSU blow out, the one I suspected was going to die.


Well that sucks! You didn't lose any hardware from it did you? You know, they CAN take all attached with them!
Best to get top quality PSU for just an instance!

It was a good PSU, just died.... No hardware lost from that, but I did notice 2 of my 6870s that have been running hot each have 1 stuck fan Sad

Great to hear a big guy is going to join us. I am not sure what's up with the current issues, but I am sure SC will have them sorted out quickly. Welcome!

A 'big guy'?  I only have 733 MH/s I'm afraid but I guess every little helps in a small pool.  Thanks.

I'm still struggling with reducing my stales but I imagine I'll get there in the end.  Indeed, being new to pool mining I don't know what's normal?


CGMiner fixed my stale issues.

Thanks for the tip but I can't get the hashrate in cgminer to even approach that which I can obtain in phoenix.


run cgminer with -I 8 param. the hashes will still be a bit lower, but almost no stales tends to be better in the long run.

Yes, the new server didn't handle being smacked around with junk data. I rerouted the dns to the old server for now.

I tried using a newer OS version for the new pool, but I think I'll just directly mirror what I have on the old one since it handles things nicely.

I imagine servers like this are hard to configure.  Out of curiosity, which OS are you using?

This is a very promising pool.  Thanks for all of the hard work.

I've been solo mining for a long time and I finally joined this pool when you introduced PPLNS.

I was having some trouble earlier with the new server and frequent disconnects but I see you have things under control.  I'll try it again tomorrow but will stick with the old server for now.

May I ask why the dates on the x-axis of "Blocks found over last week" chart are ordered alphabetically rather than chronologically?

Pardon the Rejects, looks like our servers are getting slammed.

Network attack, not in a good way...

The pool load is still almost nothing, just getting junk packets.

UPDATE: blocking as quickly as I can to alleviate the server stress.

Seems to have settled down quite a bit.

New pool server is nearly caught up on blocks! Shouldn't be long before I can open it up to everyone!

I recommend using http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/blockchain-nightly/ in the future Smiley
It allows for fast deploy of pool-servers.

Wow, that would would have made things a bit simpler... Bookmarked!

New pool server is up and running. I'm in not killing off the old one just yet or redirecting it, but the new one should have less stales and a better response.
