Title: 0 shares accepted Post by: Sarawak on August 10, 2011, 01:07:18 AM What does this mean exactly? Is that what tracks payout? Just making sure it doesn't mean my config's off.
Title: Re: 0 shares accepted Post by: nmat on August 10, 2011, 01:12:21 AM A share is a proof of work that you send to the pool server. You receive money based on the number of shares submitted (more shares equals more money).
How many Mhash/s do you have? It may take a few minutes to make a share Title: Re: 0 shares accepted Post by: Sarawak on August 10, 2011, 01:14:03 AM I have a khash/s rate of 300. It's working off of a Radeon 6870.

how exactly is a share made? i mean what criteria must the miner meet to make a share? Title: Re: 0 shares accepted Post by: nmat on August 10, 2011, 03:05:15 AM I have a khash/s rate of 300. It's working off of a Radeon 6870. It's mhash/s. Don't mix up those two. 300 khash/s would be really bad ;) You have some configuration problem. At that speed you should be making lots of shares. excuse the noob question but, how exactly is a share made? i mean what criteria must the miner meet to make a share? I am no expert and the details behind share creation and verification aren't simple. I like to think that a share is simply a bunch of hashes that you must calculate. After you are done, you send these calculations to the pool server and it replies something like: "You haven't found a block, but you have been working so here's a little reward".
