Nice job guys.   We've killed DigitalOcean.


Confirmed. I can't log into my droplets.


EDIT: Added to OP, site's down but I can get to my droplets.

OK site is back up!

I'm looking at mine now through SSH and they still seem to be running. Their PPS is really low though, 2 and 17.

Thanks, changed OP.

Just mining my own business...
Thanks for the referral code - got my $10 credit, set up a droplet, then the site went down before I could populate it!  Sigh...

I tried a number of EC2 types today.  Its almost impossible to get anything to work on anything greater than 1 CPU due to entropy issues (although I tried in earnest to resolve that too)

I'm curious what you did to inject entropy.

My site is still up and running so the vps should be mining.

How do you exit the SSH console windows and still keep it running?  Everytime I exit using putty it seems to undo everything....

What is the billing rate?  Is it a per/month charge, or do they actually charge your account per hour?


They charge the account per hour.

They continuously update your balance, but I don't think they'll charge until the end of the month. I am not a DigitalOcean employee, but they have been quick to respond to my tickets.

Ok, I have 4 of the 512mb/1cpu running, pps has dropped way down. Will update this if it picks up again.

Currently: 7 / 25 / 13 / 18

rethaw, you may want to update the OP.

Thank you rethaw for the easy tutorial (and the $10 free credit code). Just set up a few Droplets, let's see what they can do.
BTW, what's your XPM address? I'd tip you some Wink

EDIT:
Speed reports:
1st Droplet: 28pps
2nd Droplet: 70pps

Hello rethaw,

Apologize for bothering you.

I've got 2 droplets mining away at primecoin via your guide. Thank you! btw. At least it looks to my linux noob eyes like they are mining. I have the 'watch' command running, now how do I stop it? lol

Could you point me in the direction of somewhere I can learn more about what is happening here and how to monitor/use it all?

I've only ever mined in Win.

Thanks.

Ctrl+C to stop watch.

You can always ssh back in from another computer and look at what its doing. To learn about the different commands.

Was referring more along the lines of the ssh stuff and linux command line but I'll figure it out. Already familiar with the wallet daemon. Thank you.
