Terracoin setup questions

[AMD FTW]

How does one mine terracoins solo?

I downloaded the most current terracoin file from their site.
I then created a .conf file under my terracoin roaming folder.
I then opened my cgminer file and typed in http://10.0.0.2:9332
My unique username
My unique password

Before this I tried to open terracoin-qt -server via command prompt with the server flag. I got an error saying that I must set a rpcpassword in the configuration file which I already did. The error gave me a recommended username as well as a password. I haven't tried these yet but was hoping someone could comment on this.

Assuming you are in windows:

Your .conf file must go in /appdata/roaming/terracoin

and must contain the following:

Code:

server=1
rpcuser=youruniqueusername
rpcpassword=youruniquepass
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=yourterracoinport

Once you have this in the correct folder, re-launch terracoin and try again.

***EDIT***

To connect your miners, point them at your local network address rather than your external ip.

Can you be a little more specific about your setup?

Otherwise, you can generally use localhost for the IP to point to: 127.0.0.1

Yes, if you are mining on the same computer your terracoin client is on then you can point your miner to: 127.0.0.1:port

but if you are using another computer you will need to point your miner to the local network address and port number (i.e. 192.168.1.123:port)

Thanks guys for responding. I figured out what the issue was. For some reason when I opened up notepad and originally named the file "terracoin.conf" it didn't save it as a .conf file. I deleted the notepad file and created a new one and low and behold it worked the 2nd time and was actually a .conf file when I saved it.

Ah yes, when saving .conf files in notepad (or any files that aren't .txt) you must make sure that when saving you change the "files of type" drop-down menu to "all files" then save as "filename.conf"
