Just for fun I'm doing some solo mining for Franko coins, have never tried solo mining and it seemed like a worthy candidate.

I have a few machines connected to another where a Franko wallet is up, with a solo mining config file in place. All of my machines are saying they are connected to the local machine running the wallet, and are consuming GPU cycles, but I thought I would be seeing some results appear in my wallet by now (if only from just one block?!?)... So a few questions if I may:

1) Is it ok that all of my local machines are using the same username / password to connect?
2) Does it matter that "long-polling" is not active?
3) Where I usually see accepted shares listed when I'm mining with a pool, I'm only seeing New Block and Network Difficulty notifications -- should I be seeing some sort of accepted share notifications as the machine mines?

Thanks for any help on this!

there is no concept of shares in solo mining.  The sole purpose of shares is divide the reward between miners in a pool.  For the record all shares are failed hash attempts and are utterly worthless.

In solo mining you find a block when you find a block the number of "shares" would have no meaning or value.
