Title: Newb. Coinotron eth mining questions
Post by: molitar on March 03, 2016, 05:30:01 AM
I figured I would try Coinotron been mining on Suprnova.  The problem is I can't get Coinotron to run.

Batch File
Code:
mining_proxy.exe -o coinotron.com -p 3344
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 200 -G -F http://127.0.0.1:8332/<worker.name1>:<password>
--opencl-device 0,1 --cl-global-work 16384

C:\Ethereum 0.9.92\Release>mining_proxy.exe -o coinotron.com -p 3344

I see lines like above but no indication that I am hashing anything on your pool.. What am I doing wrong?

I have 2 R9 280X hashing so usually average about 47MH/s.


The other question I have is which payout is best to use?  PPS, RBPPS, or PPLNS for a smaller miner like this?
