Hello everyone, today I will show you simple short guide how you can use any VPS (with internet connection ofcourse, lol) to mine SUNcoin! There is original thread of SUNcoin
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=485677.0 .
So here we go. In almost all bigger VPS providers (DigitalOcean, Windows Azure, YesupCloud and etc.) there is actually updated linux versions and you don't need to update them manually. It just recommended to use well known linux version like ubuntu, fedora, centOS. And it's recommended to use 64Bit over 32Bit because of way better perfomance, in this Guide I will assume that you will use 64Bit, but will point out how to do with 32Bit too. The first steps after you connected via putty or other ssh and loged in with root is:
1) Write this command without quotes in terminal:
"
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/pooler-cpuminer-2.3.3-linux-x86_64.tar.gz"
If you are using 32Bit of linux then use this command below
"
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/pooler-cpuminer-2.3.3-linux-x86.tar.gz"
For quicker speed you can just copy command without quotes and when in terminal just press
Shift + Insert and it will make paste automatically.
2) When you will see in terminal that miner was downloaded and saved, it can take anything from 1second to 30seconds, now we need to extract this downloaded archive so that we could actually use it. Extract downloaded archive with this command, without quotes:
"
tar -xzf pooler-cpuminer-2.3.3-linux-x86_64.tar.gz"
If you are using 32Bit then use command below
"
tar -xzf pooler-cpuminer-2.3.3-linux-x86.tar.gz"
3) Time to use extracted miner. We will do it with this command:
"
./minerd --url stratum+tcp://server:port --userpass weblogin.worker:password -s 1"
it's recommended to use scan time of every 1 second, because it will make sure that your miner is mining latest block everytime. So for example, let's say we will be using
http://pool1.suncoin.biz/ pool for our SUN mining. And we created there account with username: "SUNRocks" then we created a worker who name is "gogogo" and we put him password "x".In this case if we want to use miner we will be using a command below:
"
./minerd --url stratum+tcp://pool1.suncoin.biz:3333 --userpass SUNRocks.gogogo:x -s 1"
That's it folks, mine SUN coins, make it your hobby, give your family or friends some mined SUN for gift, it is gonna be **cking HOT!
