poclbm.exe is probably a better miner if you want to mine solo but I have never tried mining solo with it so I don't really know.  If you download poclbm.exe I should be able to help you set up a solo mining operation.

P.S. I'm not on very often but will help when i can.
P.P.S. Have added -server to the target?
P.P.P.S I'm not sure that still works with the new version 0.3.21-beta

it's still not working
I don't know if this is wrong
Might be. Especially if you are trying to run the miner one one PC and bitcoin on another.

Add these lines:

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*


If your network is on a different subnet, change the 192 to the appropriate IP's and try again. As booklover mentioned, are you running bitcoin with the -server flag? If your are just opening the bitcoin gui, that is part of the problem. You either need to run bitcoind.exe or add the -server flag to the bitcoin shortcut.
but the way I set up mine was by setting the miner(the computer not the application) to a static ip address
and putting the following code in the bitcoin.conf file:
rpcallowip=miner's static ip*

Just for clarification I mean the ip(192.168.1.20)ex NOT the words.

Version 0.3.22 has one known problem:  'getwork' mining on Windows fails.

If you (a) are not mining with bitcoind, or (b) you are not on Windows, then everything is OK.
