I got a PM asking about how to solo mine . . .
The abridged, super simplified, solo mining HOWTO
This assumes you already have your rig built, and OS and miner installed and configured.
Solo mining, single rig
ONLY 3 THINGS TO DO:
- set up your wallet config file
- set up your wallet to run as a server
- set up your miner batch file to point to your wallet
Wallet config file key items: everything, but there are less than 20 lines
Cut and paste what's posted here into your digibyte.conf file inside the same directory/folder where your wallet is found:
Code:
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=yourusername
rpcpassword=yourpassword
server=1
daemon=1
txindex=1
debug=1
algo=scrypt
rpcport=14022
port=12024
[color=yellow]addnode=216.250.125.121
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=69.164.206.169
addnode=192.99.215.234
addnode=96.126.114.208
addnode=54.204.36.33
addnode=192.99.41.108
addnode=199.83.128.91
addnode=199.83.132.91
Change the rpcuser and rpcpassword to something of your choosing
Save it as digibyte.conf
Create a shortcut of your DigiByte wallet, right click, click properties append --server to the end of the TARGET line
(Example: C:\Users\User\Wallets\DigiByte\digibyte-qt.exe --server)
Save it and run your DigiByte Wallet as a server using that newly created shortcut.
One other thing, don't forget to modify the algo line with the algorithm you're using.
Code:
algo=scrypt
algo=sha256d
algo=groestl
algo=qubit
algo=skein
Setup your bat/script startup file by SIMPLY CHANGING 3 THINGS: your -o -u and -p switches (everything else stays the same)
-o 127.0.0.1:14022
-u the user name that you gave to rpcuser in your digibyte.conf file
-p the password that you gave to rpcpassword in your digibyte.conf file
Save and run. You're now mining solo.
Multiple Rig Setups
All the same as above, except you need to:
Change the 127.0.0.1 in the rpcallowip line in your digibyte.conf file to the IP of your server wallet machine or of your subnet, (for example to 192.168.0.* or 192.168.1.* which are the most common - you could go with 192.168.*.* when in doubt)
If necessary, create any necessary firewall exceptions on your server wallet machine and/or router.
Change the -o switch in your bat/script startup file to the IP of your server wallet machine, followed by a colon, and the rpcport number used (for example 192.168.0.30:17772 )
And you're off and running, now solo mining using various miners together.
It's easy as 1-2-3. Good luck, and good mining!
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=69.164.206.169
addnode=192.99.215.234
addnode=96.126.114.208
addnode=54.204.36.33
addnode=192.99.41.108
addnode=199.83.128.91
addnode=199.83.132.91
What are these IP address means?
Can I mine using this setup for S9?
So now I will not order from them..
