Check out Miningcore as well.  It works on Windows and is decent enough for small/private usage.  I haven't found any blocks with my measly hashpower, so can't offer any insight there, but it seems to be doing the job.  I occasionally rent from MRR and it handles the increase in transactions well enough.

I do have problems with certain miners being unable to connect to Miningcore.  My clients all work locally, but sometimes can't get stable connections from MiningRigRentals unless I switch over to NOMP/UNOMP.  I have a few boxes setup with daemons and stratum servers, so I usually just swap ports on my router and continue along.


Problem I have is that I would like a variety of coins in one server, and none of them seem to support all algorithms.  I think many of the multipool setups have been tweaked/coded to allow more flexibility.  It's been some time since I coded in any CS or JS, so that's not even an option for me any more.

I must say though that I setup an Ubuntu workstation solely for the purpose of creating a mining pool, and do enjoy working in the file system once again (I still remember the good ol' DOS days).  A lot of stuff is written to work in Linux and ported to Windows, so it might be easier and more compatible in the end.  You could probably even setup a VM with Ubuntu if you have enough RAM and the processor is good enough.

Regardless, check out Miningcore:  https://github.com/coinfoundry/miningcore

I am trying to set up my own private server on a local network box running windows. I would like to be able to set up a pool to hit with my boxes to regulate time between blocks a bit vs solo mining. I have set up a couple diferent coins using Coinium, and although it appears to be working (hashrate showing and accepted shares), I haven't found any blocks yet. Not sure if its not actually working, or if its just bad luck.

It is nearly impossible to find any reference on the setup for specific coins for Coinium.

I'm wondering what other options do i have. I have looked into NOMP and UNOMP, but can only find linux based guides to using it. Does anyone know of a guide for Windows or could you make a recommendation for a different stratum software to use in my situation. Any assistance would be appreciated and would gladly tip if I can get set up and find some blocks of something. Thanks
