Title: (Scrypt) Solo Mining question, with .05 BTC Bounty!
Post by: Dimrain13 on May 03, 2014, 03:09:09 AM
Alright so I'm trying to solo mine said Scrypt coin. I'm running my miners on a Pi. My wallet is on my main desktop computer. Now How do I get my miner pointed in the right direction? Do I set up the wallet like usual and just point at the wallet address? If you feel like dumbing it down I would appreciate it. Ill check back here in the morning and who ever answers with the best information first wins. Ill pay out after I get it working. :)

your wallet on the host computer has a .conf file im sure youve setup before... user, password, port, usual stuff.  you can add
allowip=<ipaddress of pi miner on local network>

setup your miner to point to
-o http://ip.address.of.hostcomputer:port  -u user -p password

for windows 7, folder %appdata% > scryptcoin > text file renamed scryptcoin.conf saved as "all types" filetype
server=1
listen=1
rpcuser=<user>
rpcpassword=<password>
rpcport=<port>     *invent as necessary
rpcallowip=<ip address of local network miner>
addnode=<nodes as needed>

for the miner  .bat file or miner start minimum,
cgminer --scrypt -o http://ipaddressofhostwallet:port -u user -p password - any extra flags for your miner settings for speed temp etc etc

hope this works, if not well im sure there will be other responses

that's how I solo mine,
install wallet on target machine, set miners to point at said target machine.
if the miners are on the same network just point them to the network ip, if they're external point them to the external ip. (if you use a router you're going to have to forward the rpc port from the router to your wallet machine's ip)

the rest is standard.

* if you have more than 4 miners you should also use rpcthreads= in your config, put in more than just how many miners you have because ... just in case
example config:

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
rpcuser=********
rpcpassword=*****
maxconnections=200
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=*
rpcthreads=100

enjoy solo mining.

Its with a few gridseeds, all running off of a Pi. The computer with the wallet is on a windows PC. and will be considered the server computer.
