Are you planning on mining with a Xeon X3430 ?   I would advise you drop that idea and make a better use of your time since you ain't gonna earn (or even lose if you pay for the electricity) anything since a low-end gpu will probably outperform that CPU..

What are you trying to mine,  Litecoin ?

The reason is because you will lose money and waste a server.   Chances are it will cost more in electricity then you make.

If you search "CPU MINING" you will find a lot of what your wanting.  It varies depending on what coin your wanting to mine.

Monero
Monero utilizes the CryptoNight hashing algorithm.  Here is a decent link to help you get started mining:
