Now it works with your pool!
Great thanks! If you post or PM me a namecoin address I'll send you a tip. |

I've got some problem with the cellminer (PS3 miner),
It looks like cellminer is sending a Content-Type of application/x-www-form-url-encoded (which is standard for POST requests from HTML forms). This is upsetting my server since it expects the POST data to be in name/value form pairs. Can you change cellminer to send no content type or to send application/json? |

I'm in! DiabloMiner works good under Macosx! I've got some problem with the cellminer (PS3 miner), 500 Internal Server Error (RestClient::InternalServerError)
Thanks, I'll try and track the problem with cellminer down. |

I started a pool for mining namecoins. It uses standard bitcoin miners and is share based like other pools. Miners solve difficulty 1 shares and get a proportion of the generated coins based on their contribution. The pool takes a 3% fee and coins are available for withdrawal immediately a block is generated - no waiting for maturity. Details are at the Bitparking Namecoin Pool Page. Basically you point your miner to the server at http://bitparking.com:9098 and use a Namecoin address as your username. The password can be anything. Withdrawals are only available to that Namecoin address. To withdraw, go to http://bitparking.com/pool, enter the address in the form and press the button. That takes you to your miner statistics. There will be a withdrawal button there if you have any coins. Information on setting up a namecoin client to create the address you need can be found in my blog post about namecoins |

First, the remote server should be bitcoind or bitcoinr ?
I've tried both, and none of them seem to work.
I've grabbed the strings from bitcoind and bitcoinr binaries, and I found out that the remote server commands (-remoteserver, -remoteserverpassword, -remotebindport and stuff) are inside bitcoind.
So, I've tried running bitcoind -remoteserver -remotebindaddr=myip -remotebindaddr=8800, and after all, bitcoind runs but port 8800 was not being listened on.
It looks like all the server arguments that I've setted are not working.
What am I doing wrong ?
The server is 'bitcoind'. The miner is 'bitcoinr'. Run the server with something like: bitcoind -remoteserver -remotebindaddr=0.0.0.0 -distributiontype=contributed |

Aren't virtual hosts just used if you have multiple domains that go to different directories? If you don't set up virtual hosts, shouldn't it default to /var/www directory?
Yes. |
|
|

So, I'm trying to figure out how to host a .bit domain on my server. When I try mapping the domain directly to my server ip, and then try to access the domain from a webbrowser, I still get "Server not found." Do I have to add the ip for this dns server to my server to host .bit domains?
You need to also set up your webserver to have the correct domain (including the .bit) as a virtual host to serve the pages to clients requesting via that Host name. There can also be issues with transparent proxies run by your ISP. An ISP at one location where I am refuses to serve up .bit domains as they sniff the HTTP traffic and do DNS lookups on the Host: line in the HTTP headers. This fails and the request dies. |

If the pool is just for you, and you don't care about solving lower difficulty shares and distributing payments, then just point all your miners to single bitcoind instance. It will work just like a pool.
|
|
|
|
But you say I can just map it directly to my server's IP, instead of going through the slicehost nameservers first?
It's easier just to do this. What's the point of using an alternative to DNS when you're just forwarding to an existing DNS? |

can we have a different irc boostrap channel? right now, it's #bitcoin. change it to something else, like namecoin
It should be 'namecoin' already. See CNamecoinHooks in namcoin.cpp. |

I see that on github there is a bitcoin pool server, however i am in doubt of it being that easy.
So how does one make a pool?
Technically the bitcoind software already includes everything for a pool. Multiple clients can connect and use the 'getwork' RPC call to get a block to work on. What pool software provides is the ability to adjust the difficulty, count share for different users and pay them when a block is found. But if you don't want that part, and just want to combine a bunch of machines, then you can use bitcoind on its own. |

But what about people that may file a dispute and get they're money back, cause paypal can do that.
How do i protect myself from people like that on there?
#bitcoin-otc operates a web of trust. Just limit your trades to those with a high rating. |

Hello,
I am trying to setup a headless bitcoin server.I only have ssh access. I am using ubunto 9.10. when I do ./bitcoind64 I just get a blank line. and a blinking curser. I cant access it though. if i do ctrl + c and then do ./bitcoind help or getinfo it says it cannot connect to server. can someone help me out here?
Try: bitcoind -daemon |

I'm in the US, I sold the BTC via Mt Gox (.65% fee per sale) and ended up with $812.50 USD in the Mt Gox accountz
Go to #bitcoin-otc on irc.freenode.net (Visit the bitcoin-otc website for details). There are many people there willing to trade directly with Mt Gox dollars. You can often get a 1:1 trade selling mtgox dollars for paypal USD. To transfer to the other users mtgox account you enable 'merchant services' on your account and you'll have a menu item allowing to send to another user. |

So I could theoretically register 75 domains? Could you give a human readable description?
Namecoin works like bitcoin. Instead of mining bitcoins you mine namecoins. Namecoin adds some new commands to register, change the setting of, and list domains. It costs around 50 namecoins to buy a domain. Once bought you can point it to an IP address. You need to run special programs to make your software use these domains but once you do you can then look them up under the '.bit' domain. For example, someone bought 'tester' for about 50 namecoins. Now, with the lookup software installed, I can got to http://tester.bit in my browser and it works. |

The other question is how do I get a namecoin address so I can buy my first name coins?
It works exactly like bitcoind. So: |

Does this mean I'm using you for all my dns? I don't think I want that.
I'm on Ubuntu, using NetworkManager
If you don't want to use someone elses DNS server you can set up dnsmasq on ubuntu pretty easily to serve namecoin domains and fall back to your normal DNS. This approach uses a small program I wote to generate secondary hosts file for namecoin domains. Instructions here: http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6017.msg97623#msg97623 |
