Title: Simplemining,1070, ZCash - config?
Post by: k3rt on November 22, 2017, 01:43:45 PM
Using https://simplemining.net/ to control the rig. Have a bunch fo GeForce 1070 GPUs. Would like to mine ZCash from one of descent pools (e.g. http://dwarfpool.com/zec).

How does the config should look like? Smth like:

Code:
-wd 1 -r 1 -epool stratum+tcp://zec-eu1.dwarfpool.com:3336 -ewal wallet_name.rig_name -esm 0 -epsw x -allpools 1 -mport -3333

??

What kind of a miner is that? Seeing arguments like "ewal" it looks like something made by Claymore? For gtx 10x0 cards and Zcash you should use either ewbf miner, or dstm's miner.

Config for EWBF (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1707546.0) should look something like this
miner.exe --server zec-eu1.dwarfpool.com --user YOUR_WALLET --pass x --port 3335 --cuda_devices 0 1 2 3
Port and parameter --cuda_devices point depending on the number of cards

miner.exe
Simplemining is a linux-based OS, so no .exe's there. There are all kinds miner configuration strings examples in the "help" section at simplemining.net, k3rt just have to spend a couple of minutes reading those.

My bad(( Sorry!

Edit start.sh
./miner --server zec-eu1.dwarfpool.com --user YOUR_WALLET --pass x --port 3335 --cuda_devices 0 1 2 3

./miner
Even that is not needed, :D simplemining is built around controlling everything through the web browser, you just input stuff into appropriate fields, and it's arguments only for each miner:

You can not argue) You're right!
Really only need to choose the right miner to specify a pool, the port and the wallet with password.

When trying to use:

Code:
-wd 1 -r 1 --server zec-eu1.dwarfpool.com --user t1dizyWLyWnQqbFUGAbeyyDNoFqR5fDEAnn --pass x --port 3336 --cuda_devices 2

getting:

So the problem is - how to get the proper config that could be used.

The actual problem is not the proper config but something else, you either downloaded the wrong image (you need the NV OS) or you're putting your config string in the wrong place. Cause right now you're trying to run the wrong miner with the right config.

Those are the miners, that (looks like) are available to the SimpleMining users.

So my tasks is:
1) Pick the miner that can mine ZCash
2) Get proper config for picked miner

Read my first answer to you in this thread, it's all there (for zec you need either ewbf or dstm, and you have ewbf available).
