Just a simple question from a noob.
Is needed to run bitcoin with Generating Coins activated?? or running mining in a cmd is ok??
Thanks
If you are generating coins with a miner and connected to deepbit, then no, you do no have to have the regular client up at all. If you are using a cpu miner, having generate coins on in the regular client would be a counter productive thing to do as well.

@hazek
Had a couple second hiccup from the looks of it but other then that it's fine.

Opps, read block as share for some reason.  ^^Yeah that
|

A suggestion, how about a field for a list of addresses that can be sequential/randomized and reused/consumed instead of a single one, perhaps even per-miner? What may be the purpose of this ? It'd be in-line with Bitcoin's creation of a new address for every transaction. More anonymity. It's kind of pointless because the only person seeing them knows they are you anyways.

I tried out the Pay-Per-Share payout method and found that it does not give any details as to how much was being paid out per block. Is this a glitch or something that is not yet available?
From the Main Page: Optional Pay-Per-Share mode is enabled. You can choose payments method for any of your workers, look at your account page for workers configuration. Current rate is 0.00080949465069954 BTC per share.

Not sure I understand what you mean by compromising the network.
Well say that people join a pool that's being run on a server that belongs to someone who want's to attack the network and compromise the chain with fake transactions. I read countless of times on these forums and in the wiki that something like is impossible because someone would need a cpu power to match at least 50% of the rest of the network. Well isn't that what a pool is? Basically a server with the power of loads and loads of CPUs combined? Technically yes, but I think we will be seeing more pools in the future(already see 3 biggish ones), so having that much power isn't foreseeable.

Could pools get so big that the difficulty gets so high that not being in a pool even if you have 4 GPUs of your own you'll be better off in a poll then not?
From what I understand, it's actually approaching that fairly quickly. Could pools get so big that one pool could have enough hashing speed to actually compromise the network?

At 700kh/s, I would say it is quite possible you didn't get a share within an hour. There are times my 3300kh/s doesn't get one for an hour, it's just luck.

320kh/s? Are you sure, seems low, unless you mean 320Mh/s?

as I am going to link many PCs to farm for me, do I need to create a separate worker address for each PC or can I use only one?
I mean can I start 10 miners with the same username and password and will this work correctly?
Yes you can.

There is something I don't get… Bitcoin is all about freedom, free software, geeks and everything, so why do we have windows users here?
Can't really speak for others, but: Don't really hold any OS religiously here. In fact my main computer is dual booted with Linux and Win7. For me, it depends on what I'm doing, if I'm programming/doing crypto stuff then I typically boot linux. However, I am also a part time gamer, and really many games just don't support linux (and the ones that do don't usually do it well). I don't use Mac mainly because I have no need for one.

Wait… what does that mean? [02/03/11 20:18:19] Block 1 found on GeForce 320M (#1) [02/03/11 20:52:22] Block 2 found on GeForce 320M (#1) When working in a pool, a block is just a "share", right? Or did I really discovered two blocks in a row? Not familiar with Diablo, but my guess is that yes, when pooled, block = share.

"generate" : false, May be mistaken, but think that should be true.

@digimag Once you get something along the lines of "Accepted" in the console then you have successfully submitted a share. If you are in proportional then you wont see any money until a block is found. In PPS you'll see it updated on the hour.
Also, the average speed is just that, an average, and it only counts the shares you successfully submit.
@hazek Yes, in this thread.

It basically increases your transactions priority in the system, increasing the speed it will be "processed".

It may be safe, but I could imagine the problem it might cause trying to connect from work. lol

Tycho I was wondering if you were planning on adding SSL to the website, at least for the login, but hopefully for it all. That would be great since I know you have nothing better to do.  Thanks for setting all of this up! I would be inclined to agree. While minimal damage could be done if someone else gets in, it would suck to lose our transfers to someone else because they changed the address our coins are sent to.

Connecting fine here. Do you mean the site(port 80) or mining(port 8332)?
