Title: Miner behind firewall
Post by: al1n on February 12, 2021, 03:15:58 PM
Hello

I'm searching for a solution to bypass some closed ports in my network (they used to work but now they got closed by the admin).
I managed to get a socks5 server up and running outside of the network and I could access it from my network using proxifier.
However proxifier does not seem to catch any traffic done by the miner (GMiner in my case).
I also tried with proxycap, but this time the miner itself would not work complaining about memory modifications.

Do you have any other ideas?
SSH and putty perhaps?

Btw, I'm using windows as OS.

Hi,

i have some miners behind a firewall blocking all ports except 80 and 443.
my solutions were:

Solution 1)

get a linux box somewhere on the internet and use simpleproxy:

Code:
simpleproxy -v -d -L {IP OF LINUX BOX}:{PORT THAT PASSES YOUR FIREWALL} -R {POOL ADDRESS}:{POOL PORT}

then you would go and make your gminer connect to the IP and port of the linux box.


Solution 2)
 
https://stratumproxy.io (https://stratumproxy.io)

they are using port 80 / 443 and forward your traffic to the pool of your choice (f2pool, 2miners, flypool..)
just set the password accordingly. there is 1% dev fee as of now.


cheers!
