Title: Stratum proxy on Amazon Web Services EC2 instance
Post by: VolksMiner on May 04, 2014, 12:59:55 PM
I'd like to shift my Block Erupter Cubes from home to my office (free electricity), but my office network seems to block traffic through ports 3333. This is preventing me from mining in the office with any pools I know of (I'm sure the list of pools known by me is not exhaustive).

What I'd like to do is find a port that I can exit my company's network from and re-configure my cubes to use this port to reach an Amazon T1.micro in the cloud running the Stratum proxy which is in turn pointing to my mining pool.

Has anyone managed to do this?
I can't seem to set up the T1.micro to talk to my Cubes.

I know the 30Gh cube (mine are running at >38Gh even with one or two chips X'd) is far from efficient these days, but my office could use the heating, especially with the southern hemisphere winter coming down on us.
