Title: bitcoind rcpconnect to deepbit Post by: weliwarmer on May 23, 2011, 06:44:59 PM Hi,
I'm trying to connect to deepbit using bitcoin and/or bitcoind on two computers both running Ubuntu. The commands I'm using are bitcoind -rpcuser=mydeepbituser -rpcpassword=mydeepbitpass -rpcconnect=deepbit.net -gen bitcoin -rpcuser=mydeepbituser -rpcpassword=mydeepbitpass -rpcconnect=deepbit.net -gen The first command seems to start the daemon ok. The second command starts the GUI and shows a single connection. They have been running a couple of days but my account on deepbit show an average of 0MH/s and no shares found. Could someone tell me what I've missed please? Thanks, Tim Title: Re: bitcoind rcpconnect to deepbit Post by: kjj on May 23, 2011, 06:51:38 PM Bitcoin/bitcoind is the node software to participate in the network. It doesn't do remote mining. You need a mining client if you want to use a pool.

See stats https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison If you have a video card on that list that you would like to use then you need a mining client.

I now get I was going the wrong way, I though bitcoind/bitcoin would act as a miner. I'm off to try poclbm ... Thanks again, Tim Title: Re: bitcoind rcpconnect to deepbit Post by: grndzero on May 23, 2011, 08:19:09 PM Thanks for your replies (apart from dikidera who reply was lamer than my question, and has done nothing to help.
