Avalon users: bitcoind + eloipool configuration

[ProfMac]

I want a bid from someone to set up eloipool under 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  I have it running in a virtualbox and can give ssh access, preferably through IPv6.

I am thinking that this can be packaged as an appliance and distributed.

I want a bid from someone to set up eloipool under 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  I have it running in a virtualbox and can give ssh access, preferably through IPv6.

I am thinking that this can be packaged as an appliance and distributed.

I have eloipool operational in the virtualbox.

I wonder if anyone has any idea how to configure it for bytecoin?

You aren't connecting to bitcoind - wrong password, or username possibly, or not listening on localhost....
Make sure you don't have a firewall set up that's rejecting connections on the port you are using.

[madjoe1974]

does anybody knows how can i configure different difficultys for different miners?

i have some avalons and one brandnew bitfury here. but the bitfury have some problems on pools with vardiff (like slush) and also if the diff is set to low

and another question:

is it possible to enable a log-rotate for the sharelog, same like for the pool log itself

best regards joe

some ideas? please help i'm new to eloi

before this eloi works fine, i've mined 2 blocks...

best regards joe

[agibby5]

b) increase share target (note increased '0' and decreased 'f'):

Code:

-ShareTarget = 0x00000000ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
+ShareTarget = 0x000000000fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

c) DynamicTargetting = 2

d) DynamicTargetGoal = 6

How do these settings scale for other hash rates?

A few other people have this problem as well, but the inquiries go unanswered in the main eloipool thread.

Hi all,

Is there a recommended hardware for the bitcoind + eloipool set?
Also, what should I expect in regards to system utilization?

[halcy0n3]

bitcoind and eloipool seem to be up and running

however

port 3334 isnt open

my logfile only indicates new blocks on network

[halcy0n3]

okay now the port is open and accessible from the internet

but i still cant connect via stratum.... BAH

any ideas?

[Carlton Banks]

If the reason for using Eloipool is to solo mine, then latest cgminer has solo mining functionality built in (either 4.0.0 or 4.1.0, check the cgminer thread to be sure). I think you can just setup a bitcoind node and point the miner config to it on port 8332

[halcy0n3]

well it is and it isnt.

I am using 8332 to mine directly to bitcoind

netstat and lsof -i show me that eloipool is communicating with bitcoind

and infact my local network is reaching out to eloipool on 3334 bfgminer says no however. im using eligius for block announcements though in truth bitcoind is only ~1 second behind so probably just a waste of time.

the log file is giving me nothing to work with..

I'll keep trying

[halcy0n3]

well, got it all sorted.

One last piece of the puzzle and everything will be dandy

dynamic targeting seems to be a failure for me

all diff 1 shares
lots of stale shares

i tried commenting out the sharetarget and getworktarget in config.py as suggested in another thread to no avail
youll see in eloipool.py hte value is hard coded if no variable exists in config.py

any help?

Try adding DynamicTargetServerAddresses to your config man.

What does this mean/do?  I don't see it listed in the example config file.  I'm having same problem of only diff 1 shares.  Thanks.
