I decided to solo mine Execoin while the difficulty is reasonably low, it's the first time I've attempted to point my rigs at the wallet on my central "control" PC. I have it working fine, have found blocks and they're being credited on the wallet. But my question is, is there a limit to how many miners you can have pointing at the wallet PC? I manage to get four of my five miners on it just fine, but the fifth one always hangs and then gives me the no username/pass error. I know it's a not an issue with the config file because I can stop one of the other miners and then start it, and it connects just fine. It seems like it's just having trouble doing more than four, for some reason.

Any ideas?

The default setting is 4.

Add this to your .conf file:

rpcthreads=5  (or whatever number of miners you have)
