Title: Setup my own private mining pool
Post by: SargeR33 on February 15, 2015, 12:20:28 AM
Hey all,

Does anybody have any useful resources which show how to setup a private mining pool? I don't want/need a web interface. I want to mine an alt which uses SHA256 and give it a try using my own miners at home. I've got a Linux system with Ubuntu. I was thinking of running one of those web setups which are most commonly used(MPOS) but there seems to be a large amount of dicking around to get it working, not for mining but accounts, verifications etc.

What is the simplest way I can setup a private pool?

Nomp is about the simplest to set up.

private pool = solo mining

just point more rig to one rig with the confing for solo mining, and you have your private pool

Solo merged mining is a big reason for wanting to run a pool.

For example even mmpool.org leaves out two of the SHA256 merged mined coins, and I am not aware of any other public pool that even merges just the coins that mmpool does.

I had been using p2pool but it does not seem to like Neptune ASIC miners, I would see only 1 terahash or so from a Neptune that on mmpool would yield 3.4 terahashes.

So I am interested both in pool software one can merged mine at home with with a bunch of Neptune miners and/or fallback pools that merge as many of the merged mined SHA256 coins as possible.

Also of course if I get into scrypt mining again then there too I would want to merged mine...

Heck for any algorithm I'd want to merge chains if possible.

Nomp doesn't seem to mention merged mining though?

The sgminer does not mine directly to a wallet. Do you know any version of sgminer which can point to a wallet?

Here's quite a nice guide to get you started:
