he was trying to setup a proxy

What are the benefits of using an upstream node?  is it just a Proxy? 

No fees.  And you can't use Ozcoin as an upstream node.

So why would anyone mine at your pool rather than Ozcoin? 

If you are running Eloipool you can use Eclipse or Eligius as upstream nodes instead of running your own bitcoind.  I haven't actually setup a downstream node, but it should be fairly straight forward.

you cant forward any haspower by running a pool as i know!
Running a pool means you mine on your own, you solve the blocks on your own.

You can of course, donate a percentual gain to a specific address with a coinbaser.

You can also run a miner and enter the donation addres sfrom ozcoin.

and i don't have bitcoind running i want to give my pool's power to Ozcoin and payout the user's from the bitcoin's earned from Ozcoin after taking a small fee.

is this possible with "pushpool" or "ecoinpool"

no i am going to make a pool that forward's it's power to Ozcoin is this possibe with "ecoinpool"

 #rpcuser=Ulysseys
 #rpcpassword=YourSuperGreatPasswordNumber_DO_NOT_USE_THIS_OR_YOU_WILL_GET_ROBBED_385593

did you edit your bitciond.conf ?


I'm not sure what you are trying to setup but if you are going to mine on Ozcoin you would be better with a proxy than pushpool and you wouldn't worry about a bitcoind
ABCpool is an example of this
as is puppetmaster and (was) gpumax

i installed pushpool and my server config is :

{
   # network ports
   "listen" : [
      # binary protocol (default), port 8342
      { "port" : 8342 },

      # HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8341
      { "port" : 8341, "protocol" : "http-json" },

      # HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
      # with trusted proxy appserver.example.com forwarding
      # requests to us
      { "port" : 8332, "protocol" : "http-json",
        "proxy" : "192.168.100.7" },

      # binary protocol, localhost-only port 8338
      { "host" : "192.168.100.7", "port" : 8338, "protocol" : "binary" }
   ],

   # database settings
   "database" : {
      "engine" : "mysql",
      "host" : "localhost",
      "port" : 3306,
      "name" : "mysql_database_name",
      "username" : "mysql_username",
      "password" : "mysql_password",
      "sharelog" : true,
      "stmt.pwdb":"SELECT `password` FROM `pool_worker` WHERE `username` = ?",
      "stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"

   },

   # cache settings
   "memcached" : {
      "servers" : [
         { "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 11211 }
      ]
   },

   "pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

   # overrides local hostname detection
   "forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

   "log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
   "log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

   # the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
   "longpoll.disable" : false,

   # length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds
   "auth.cred_cache.expire" : 75,

   # RPC settings | Notice how this ISN'T port number 8332 this is becuase the same port number should not becuase inconjunction with the JSON RPC port other wise you'll get 500 errors
   "rpc.url" : "us1.ozco.in:8332",
   "rpc.user" : "pool_worker_user",
   "rpc.pass" : "pool_worker_password",

   # rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
   "rpc.target.rewrite" : true
       
}

when i connect my miner to pushpool it say's "Problem communicating with Bitcoin RPC"

can anyone tell me what is wrong in my "server.json"

and i want to point my pool's power to Ozcoin
