Title: Starting a private pool? Post by: melter on May 27, 2011, 02:37:46 AM Can someone explain how to create a private pool for me and some people I know to mine together?
Title: Re: Starting a private pool? Post by: disq on May 27, 2011, 02:47:14 AM You could use pushpool: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=8707.0
Title: Re: Starting a private pool? Post by: melter on May 27, 2011, 02:51:23 AM this is a bunch of C source files, what am I supposed to do?
Do I need knowledge in programming? Title: Re: Starting a private pool? Post by: melter on May 27, 2011, 02:58:40 AM ok let me be a bit more clear: I don't want to create a pool that gives out shares to different clients and splits the reward evenly. I just want to know how to set up so that others can connect to my bitcoin server over the internet for mining, so that it would be the same as if I was solo mining with multiple video cards.

otherwise it's very opaque, unless you have GH/s I guarantee you'll get anxious about whether or not your pool is working - bitcoin won't show you if anything is happening... perhaps this solution is more to your taste - http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=1458.0 |
