Hi,

Can anybody answer me, why I have this problems with connect to litecoind pool?

I am using litecoind to whitch I have connect several computers from different networks. Everything seem to be OK, besides that I can´t connect more then 3 computer at the same time. Why? Is the some kind of connection restriction in litecoind?

I am using litecoind with next configuration:
rpcuser=xxxxx
rpcpassword=xxxx
rpcallowip=*
rpcport=8080
deamon=1
server=1
maxconnections=500
gen=0
block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493


Please, excuse my english.

Thanks
Lord Zed

thanks I got cpuminer connected and working.

How do I keep track of when I find a block?  Secondly, does the payment go directly to my wallet?

Thanks.

The block will appear in your wallet as a transaction and then after its been confirmed ( 120 ) you will be allowed to spend it.

Secondly, is there native long-polling support on litecoin-qt when I run it like this?

Thanks.

How would I change the port to 80?  This is my config so far:

server=1
rpcallowip=*
Not a good idea. restrict this to your local network, which would generally be 192.168.x.0/24 (255.255.255.0)

Quote
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=80
set rpcport to a value higher than 1024. You may have an application already bound to port 80 (Personal Web Server, or IIS.)

To run the server, do I run litecoin-qt.exe?  or do I have to run litecoind?  Finally can people connect to me with cpuminer?

I've used the above config and even when litecoin-qt gui is running, cpuminer can't connect.  Secondly, running litecoind, I just get a black screen that closes by itself after a few seconds.

check the db.log and debug.log to find out why. These are located in %appdata%\litecoin.

for litecoin-qt, make sure litecoin.conf is in the same directory as you executable and that should work

for litecoind.exe , I normally specifiy everything on the command line

litecoind.exe -conf=c:\myconf.conf -datadir=c:\mydatadir -port 0000 -rpcport=0000

I've been trying to start up a litecoin pool for my apt to run with some friends in my apartment.  What would be the easiest way to start on a windows machine that my neighbors can connect to my computer and mine?

I'm not familiar with linux at all so it would like be a lot tougher and I do want to keep my primary machine windows as I have games and apps that require it.  Thank you.

install litecoin
configure via litecoin.conf to add an rpc username and password
have everyone mining use your http://machineip:9332 and the username and password when mining
