Is there anyway to remove the TP-Link portion (so remove OpenWRT period) and run something like rPI or BB Black so I can configure the miners to have open API's and allow me to remotely watch them all in one monitor.  The built in software is good but very limited.  Which is where the idea of changing that came up. 

umm.. u can already do that. If you set api-allow setting to your computers ip, you can use all the cgminer API things to monitor, manage pools, etc etc. https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/API-README

Also since u can ssh as root into the device.. so that basically means u can do whatever u want remotely..

Are there actually significant numbers of private miners there?

Id say yes... I used to mine there until a month or so ago... miners like larger pools cause of lower variance while unknowingly putting the whole network at risk...

its a pool where they run their cloud scam plus a relatively stable pool for private miners... with merged mining (not many pools do that i thinks)

Can anyone offer advice on a Antec VP450p psu which has only 1 pci-e connector. It seems the second rail is only for the cpu power and everything else is on rail 1.

It's a 4+4 atx12v connector for the CPU - How should I connect this to one of my boards? Each connector has two yellow and two blacks. The PCI-E cable is on the other board.

Thanks.

I used the CPU 4 yellow / 4 black cables for a blade with psu that had only 1 pci-e connector... no issues.... but my PSUs are all single rail 520W+

Only room for three of each though?

i put 4 cables into 3 holes.... one of the holes of each color had a twosome...

Right - but I don't think we are assuming that cex.io is a bad actor here... In fact, it doesn't seem to be in their best interest to damage the ecosystem.

...just like one would assume that all the hordes joining ghash.io would know better....



Fair, but there is a difference between assuming that the miners would know better and that cex.io will act in a way to preserve their own business. 

Why lose profit today for potential profit tomorrow?



Because they have done it in the past https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=327767.0

Even if their claim is legit, that the bad actor was a staff whose been fired... the only way to stop this from hapening is by not putting anyone in a position to be able to make this happen. If your pool gets > 30% switch to another pool before its too late... simple...

Why don't we just petition cex.io to split ghah.io into two separate pools?  Would that not solve the problem?

What problem would that solve exactly?
68  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Free (like in freedom) pool for Datacoin (and Primecoin, maybe) on: January 07, 2014, 08:57:24 PM
You dont really need a pool for what you want to do...

Ive read somewhere that some forks of jhprimeminer can use the json-rpc with primecoind's getwork/getblocktemplate and mine from there. i.e. you would need to run primecoind in one place, and jhprimeminer on any number of slaves... unfortunately this seems to be windoze only. xolominer does not talk to primecoind.

but +1 for your question. Im looking for a nice and effecient private pool... for multiple slaves to mine against...

i think in /etc/default/cgminer

Does anyone know where there are some USB miners for a realistic price? I want some to watch the pretty lights.

USB miners have only 2 purposes....

1. Noob bait
2. Novelty item

Both of those tend to be overpriced....

With a good PW can't be hacked.

@turtle83 thanks, i will try when i am back home.

No, JeffZwolle is very correct. Please dont do this. I personally use the method JeffZwolle mentioned. i.e. i have a computer within the network i ssh into, and use that computer as a jumpbox to talk to everything else on my lan.

If you communicate to your miners unencrypted, anyone upstream(network admin, isp, government, etc...) can easily sniff your password, and then set the miner to mine for their pools. In fact if u use unsecured wifi, or public hotspot, anyone in the area can sniff your passwords from the air without even specifically targeting you.
So in that scenario will a Teamviewer notebook within my lan has the same effect, right? I could access via TV tunnel and change every settings which i want...

I was searching for another idea, because i want avoid that another computer need to run 24h and consume electricity. :/

No idea how Teamviewer works or how secure it is...

Just buy a raspberry pi and stick it in to use as ssh tunnel. Its only like 2 watts or smthn.

Hm...i try it but dosn't work. If i use the :80 port, i can access one of the miner, but all other ports are closed. How i must setup the lan internal port to 80?

I guess is not 80 so i can't access. I use a cisco router, and there is no option to change the lan port.  Any other suggestion?

If the jupiter runs some kind of linux... and it allows you to ssh in, you could change the port in whatever webserver is in it. If you cant edit webserver config then try to setup local port forwarding..  You could set it to forward 5000 to 80, or you could set it on some other machine...

"if its too good to be true, then it probably isn't"

6 TH/S @  23.89 BTC ...  at current difficulty it would make that back in 10 days... why on earth would someone sell it? and offer 30 day money back gurantee on product that ROIs in 10 days? Common sense is probably rolling in its grave...
79  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [FIXED] My both Antminers stopped working !!! on: December 27, 2013, 08:43:57 AM
I've been nagging them to post their firmware sources since they started shipping products so I could fix it and I guess they've been too busy.

Is that not a violation of GPL? Both cgminer and openwrt are GPL'd...

I'm shocked that they'd choose the 3M liquid (Novec 7000 Engineered Fluid, 1-methoxyheptafluoropropane). It is at least 100 times more expensive than using a light oil. And even that is far more expensive than if they reduced the physical packing density of the miners and air cooled them like in any conventional datacenter with ambient/evaporative cooling. So I'm surprised to see them claim that their reduce floor space (and saving on rent) is the more economical option. Especially since the entire 'mine' will be irrelevantly inefficient within 12 months and won't be worth the electricity bill. Good for them though, the rest of us can only dream of having that kind of capital.

They are in hong kong, and not mainland china. I think rent saving is a big issue there... Also with evaporative cooling you could get away with higher overclock levels. The company that built this sort off specializes in evaporative cooling... so they probably have some cozy relationship with 3M... Also i doubt if asicminer will mine with those chips forever... when their next gen chips are made... they will simply sell these old boards overpriced and replace the datacenter with the new ones.

The company that built this also did a similar thing with FPGA mining cluster in the past http://www.allied-control.com/immersion-1/technical-details
