Title: Creating Private Litecoin Pool Between Friends, Where To Start? Post by: Tittiez on February 11, 2012, 09:52:40 PM So, me and a couple friends decided that we could mine in a private pool together.
Two Phenom ii X4, One X6's, One i5, and One i7. I already own a ubuntu VPS and I have basic linux knowledge, can anyone give me an idea where to start? I understand PoolServerJ added Litecoin support, would it be best to try to use that? I just need pointed in the right direction.

I just need pointed in the right direction. Although the latest version of PoolServerJ advertises experimental support for scrypt-based chains, as far as I know nobody has managed to get it to work fine yet. At the moment I think you have two choices for the pool software: ArtForz's version of pushpool or p2k's ecoinpool. I don't recommend pushpool (https://github.com/ArtForz/pushpool) because it is currently unmaintained. I think ecoinpool (https://ecoinpool.p2k-network.org/projects/ecoinpool) is the way to go.

I think if everyone edits the litecoin BOOTSTRAP_ADDRS in p2pool/networks.py to only include your own nodes, it will work. There could be more to it though.

Post by: Tittiez on April 22, 2012, 10:01:39 PM hello, so did you give it a shot? ;) Yeah actually I did, and I had ecoinpool working just fine. My friends slowly stopped mining so I eventually scrapped it to use the VPS for other things, but not before we mined a few blocks. |
