Title: Cgminer cant connect Post by: oros55 on November 16, 2011, 02:31:46 PM Hi,
I'm trying to use cgminer to do some mining on pools but, I cannot join any pools with it. I actually can join my own local server doing ./cgminer -o localhost:8332 etc.. But, when I try to join an external server, like pit.deepbit.net, I have : [2011-11-16 15:23:43] HTTP request failed: connect() timed out! [2011-11-16 15:23:43] Failed to connect in json_rpc_call [2011-11-16 15:23:43] FAILED to retrieve work from pool 0 http://pit.deepbit.net:8332 I also cant join a server on the LAN with the minner, but I have no problems to ssh this server, or ping it. I'm using Ubuntu. regards, Title: Re: Cgminer cant connect Post by: tysat on November 17, 2011, 02:45:15 AM Are you behind a firewall that isn't letting port 8332 out? Blocking of high ports is not uncommon.

And you dont want to mine on deepbit anyway. Title: Re: Cgminer cant connect Post by: kano on November 17, 2011, 11:37:23 AM Are the pool worker username and password correct?
Some pools (including deepbit) require you to connect with a worker username and password, not your login username and password ... |
