I tried this a while back. I found it would have been much easier to setup a pool and mine in your own pool. The software for pool mining is much more developed than solo mining.

Cgminer has directions for solo mining in the README.

Or you could do it the even easier way and mine on a solo pool like the one I run:

solo mining does consume huge amounts of electricity, but if you are rich enough, things will be different, good luck!

Just want to know on intention of doing it because of the cost and the down time when mining pools gets me faster rewards but maybe not as good as solo,  just want to know.


and being rich has nothing to do with it .


discouragement does not work on me it make me more determined to know


no offense taken .
 cya .. thought id ask and hope for the best .

thanks man it helped me i was able to see it done with my  video card and antminer u2 , that's  all i wanted to know .

I did try with my S1 that's whole diff story atm I'm not ready to do.
I did find a guide for a ant s1 that's a real pain but I'll do it one day, just to do it   (down time to learn how etc have to install Linux over windows atm I don't feel like installing it  on any of my  PC or even dual boot. maybe my PI I'll try it on later  ) .



cya  happy mining.

Or you could just do what ckolivas posted and use his solo mining pool.  Why re-invent the wheel?
