Title: Mining pool.. Post by: pindis on May 18, 2011, 12:24:24 PM Hi guys.
In order to have a mining pool server, what's required? Connection: ? Hardware: ? Software: ? I must say I have tried a little to search, but didn't really find anything useful.

I ment. what KIND of connection, what hardware and software if I really have to cut it out into pieces for you. Title: Re: Mining pool..

It's going to take a fair bit of time, effort and some money to setup a pool. Yet you expect others to pull all that information together to save you 30 minutes to a few hours of research for your benefit? |
