Title: Using more than one computer with deepbit and DiabloMiner on OS X?
Post by: ebeyer on June 12, 2011, 03:33:01 PM
I have two iMacs.  One is mining right now for Deepbit.  I would like to do the same on the other iMac, which is on a different network.  I'm using the exact same client, username and password on the second machine, but that second machine keeps saying "ERROR: Can't connect to Bitcoin: Bitcoin returned error message: wrong login or password:", over and over.  What am I doing wrong and how do I fix the problem?

Sounds like a good way to ruin an expensive computer.  What are your temps looking like?  I can't imagine the iMac is:

A) Getting you any kind of respectable hash rate
B) Capable of venting the heat created of mining

I'm sorry for being dense.  deepbit is asking for the Worker login's tail (up to 7 characters).  I tried skipping that but I have the same error when I try to start mining on the second computer.

Thanks.

I'm not a fanboy.  Just working with what I've got.

On my iMac at home I'm getting about 95kHash/sec and have earned an amazing .03 BC over the past 14 hours or so.  I was getting mid 50s on this older one, although they're wasted until I can figure out how to get it working for deepbit.

Could someone please tell me what Deepbit is asking for by "Worker login's tail (up to 7 characters)"?  I'm trying to set up a second computer as a worker for my deepbit account.

Many thanks in advance.
