Hello.

I try to solo mine, and I wandering if there is necsessary redirect port 8333 to the computer running the Bitcoin-qt (latest 6.0).
I observed a very large outbound traffic on this computer.
I sopped redirection (uploud decreased by 95%) and miners are on a mine,
but I wonder whether there will be any problems with announcement of  to find the block.
I googled, that previously advised that the port forwarding 8333.
There is a miner  with some  knowledge or experience on this?


Thank you in advance Panda Mouse

been solo'ing for 3months, found one block -it was awesome... variance is pretty horrible, but what’s even worse is having your cluster (machine) solve a block for a pool and getting .03BTC for it.

Besides solo mining helps the network a lot more than pool'd mining... kinda defeats the purpose of a decentralized currency if you're going to centralize all the hashing resources (P2Pool is a good alternative) that keep/verify/transmit/hash the transaction logs.

…I have just over 3Gh/sec…


What are you guys using to keep track of your ‘shares’ …read previously that some peps have mentioned “I’m at 1,000,000. Nothing yet”




at a pool you would have made about 160btc in 3 months!!

and this is at the current higher diff.  you would have made more if you calculate the lower diffs

edit:  o, and btw, i hope your power is free.  you spent about 30 btcs in power if not.  so your profit in 3 months was 20btc vs 130btc

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -server              launches me without any problem on 0.5.2

Can anybody help me?

1.
If I try solo mine - can I use similar cgminer flag configurations (-u rpcUser -p rpcPass -o http://10.0.0.101:8332 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 450-1180 --gpu-memdiff -150 --gpu-powertune 0 --temp-target 75 -g 2 -q -I 9 -k poclbm -v 1 -w 256) like in deepbit? There is some special additional flags?

2.
It is possible to connect many PC's to one server (10.0.0.101) and have another userName?

3.
I've read all pages and can't start mining (bitcoind getgenerate = false), I use windows 7, made all steps properly. There is a trick?

Thanks in advance Panda Mouse
1.Yes, No, there is not a special flag required.
2.Yes, But not with other usernames asfar as i've tried. i think it has something to do with identifying the hashing strength as one unit, rather than two comps (Do Not Know)
3. Theres no trick.... could you be more specific as to where it is that the attempt to solomine begins to fail?


1.
I forwarded port 8333 to 10.0.0.50
2.
On PC 10.0.0.50 started bitcoin-qt.exe with bitcoin.conf:
rpcuser=DingoRabiit
rpcpassword=DertyPasswurds
rpcallowip=10.0.0.*
rpcport=8332
server=1
3.
On PC 10.0.0.100 started cgminer.exe -u DingoRabiit -p DertyPasswurds -o http://10.0.0.50:8332 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 450-1180 --gpu-memdiff -150 --gpu-powertune 0 --temp-target 75 -g 2 -q -I 9 -k poclbm -v 1 -w 256
 - its working and say: Pool 0 http://10.0.0.50:8332 alive
4.
On PC 10.0.0.50 started bitcoind.exe getgenerate (and get "false") - (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_list)

So main questions is:

1. Where can I see if I am working and how fast?
2. Where is address I'll receive 50BTC?

Many thanks for any helps.

Panda Mouse.

I don't know by experience but I solo mine litecoins just like this. Have a wallet or daemon running on one pc with
server=1
rpcallowip=subnet*
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password
in the conf file and the miners all connect with the same user/password to this one ip or hostname and mine...

what about solo mining LiteCoins? Did you guys consider it? The official Litecoin wallet client has a mining option but there is no information which would give you some clue about progress. Also I don't know if minerd miner can work this way without a pool... Or would it work with litecoind?

I was trying SOLO mining from time to time with GUIminer since 6 months ago and I was lucky twice Cheesy.

Steps as following:
1)Solo Utilities -> Create solo password (to create my username & pass)
2)File -> new miner -> open CL miner -> Name new miner -> (server: solo, user: my_username, pass: my_pass, flags: -v -w128 -f0)
3)Solo Utilities -> Set Bitcoin client path
4)If bitcoin client is open, then close it.
5)Solo Utilities -> Launch Bitcoin client as Server (This will run bitcoind.exe from "C:\program...files\bitcoin\daemon" folder)

 
But today I've just installed BTC client 0.5.2 and now I can't mine in SOLO mode.

Every time I try to Launch Bitcoin client as Server several error dialog boxes are shown.
I checked "...\bitcoin\daemon" folder and there is not bitcoind.exe file.
I uninstalled 0.5.2 BTC client and downgraded it to 0.3.24 but no succeed, the same error dialog boxes are still shown.

Sugestions are welcome, thanks in advance.-



Try going to your Application data (if on windows, Run->%appdata%) and goto Bitcoin, Then There will be a file called Bitcoin.conf (make a backup) Edit it like so:

rpcuser=DingoRabiit
rpcpassword=DertyPasswurds
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=8332
server=1

P2Pool.

If you want to gamble, find a BTC accepting casino.

No, You will not, You are going to need 20GH+ if you want to take a "three day wild swing for a block"

"Yo bitch, Check it *flash a screen shot of a wallet full of nothing but Gen'd blocks and 5xxxBtc with todays date in Several spots*, You aint got shit of a chance, trust me, It's like playin roulette with only one number"
