The fix is easy, simply add the following to your /etc/hosts on any miner with > July 2016 firmware. 127.0.0.1 auth.minerlink.com Power cycle will lose the change. ... and yes I've posted about the issue long ago :p

Antbleed - Potentially malicious backdoor on Antminer S9, T9, R4, L3 and any upgraded firmware since July 2016 http://www.antbleed.com/Thanks for sharing this, windpath. We need to spread more awareness on this issue to protect as many miners as possible using those Antminers. Also, to anyone who would like to chip in with their opinions about Antbleed here, please keep it civil and as apolitical as possible. The main point here is to be aware that there is a backdoor, that this backdoor could be exploited in ways we do not know yet, and that we need to take as many precautions as possible to mitigate this risk. We do not need more name-calling and mudslinging. You do know that this horribly named vulnerability has been known about for awhile, right? We do not need a lecture on civility by someone with a 4 day old account.

Not everyone joined the bitcointalk forum the very moment they joined the Bitcoin ecosystem. Yes, I can certainly understand that as it describes my own situation rather well. However, your post is completely OT and you are pretty much violating your own request for civility. I would like to point out that just because the folks you quoted did not know of the vulnerability does not mean that other parts of the community were not tracking it. I know that I read about it at least some months ago now.

I find this interesting (from the node scanner): Currently 125 P2Pool nodes online, 120 of them are open to the public. I've seen 206 P2Pool nodes since I began scanning in April 2017. First to have 120 of 125 active nodes open to the public is simply amazing. In November 2016: 103 nodes discovered (p2pool version 16+) 58 public nodes (blue), 45 private nodes (yellow) Thats a huge boost in the percentage of public nodes. The second thing I find interesting is that since April 21st (just 6 days) 81 nodes have been started and then subsequently gone offline, wonder what those folks are up to...

Whoops.... Bug in my code. I was counting all reachable nodes (ever, not just the active ones), so my number of public nodes was way off.... It's accurate now. Currently 121 P2Pool nodes online, 79 of them are open to the public. I've seen 215 P2Pool nodes since I began scanning in April 2017.

Question about P2Pool (on Bitcoin network) : how many time must wait for the P2Pool node to adjust the difficulty ? I have rented a 4,7 TH/s and, when it has finished, my regular 10 GH/s follow the path. But, the difficulty stuck at 1200 (instead of 2). When i restart the P2Pool node, the difficulty is reset to 1 and the P2Pool rise to 2 for the 10 GH/s like usual. Edit : OK, 40 minutes to adjust automaticly the P2Pool difficulty (readed on the P2Pool log) from 1200 to 2. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimagizer.imageshack.us%2Fa%2Fimg924%2F4467%2FMYMXee.png&t=665&c=GSCW9ebWgCyUIw)

Question about P2Pool (on Bitcoin network) : how many time must wait for the P2Pool node to adjust the difficulty ?
I have rented a 4,7 TH/s and, when it has finished, my regular 10 GH/s follow the path. But, the difficulty stuck at 1200 (instead of 2). I have waited 1h and no change on difficulty ...
When i restart the P2Pool node, the difficulty is reset to 1 and the P2Pool rise to 2 for the 10 GH/s like usual.
The P2Pool difficulty itself is dynamic and adjusts with each share found. There are 2 other difficulty settings configurable by the miner: Share difficulty: sets the actual difficulty for a miners shares. This was implemented for large miners who wanted to set share difficulty HIGHER than P2Pools actual difficulty. If set to lower than share difficulty it is ignored. It is set by adding a "/" to the end of your address followed by the difficulty number. Sudo share difficulty: sets a sudo difficulty so your miners will submit work more often than they would at the actual difficulty. This is useful to smooth out your hash rate graph on the node. It is set by adding a "+" at the end of the miner address followed by the desired sudo difficulty. You can set both or either one. Regardless of your settings shares will only be accepted if they meet the minimum P2Pool difficulty. Edit: as pointed out below I mixed up the + and /, this post is edited to be correct.

Hmm, I was under the impression that it was the other way around, i.e.: - adding a "/" followed by the desired difficulty level to the end of the Bitcoin address would tell the miner to submit only shares above the stated "/" difficulty level, and - adding a "+" to the end of the Bitcoin address tells the P2Pool node to always give the miner work with the stated "+" difficulty level.

Personally speaking, I have always found the "+" option to be the most useful as it forces p2pool to give a miner the specified work difficulty.

Greetings p2poolers, I'm the owner of the "1Hinen" address. I began renting hashpower to mine on p2pool about a month ago and noticed the smaller block sizes, and came across the discussion here after some Googling on the subject. @jtoomim, I have switched my node to your fork. I just finished downloading the sharechain and it looks like everything is working well. You can expect anywhere from 0-10Ph of rented hashpower from me depending on rental prices. Please let me know if I can do anything else to help you test your fork (or if I'm doing anything that's not helpful). Thank you for your work on this. Looking forward to finding a fat 1MB block with you. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) --Darren ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Node: whortonda.noip.me Worker port: 3000 P2P port: 9333 Connected to: ml.toom.im:9333 To connect to me: run_p2pool.py -n whortonda.noip.me:9333 CPU: Core i7-6800K @ 3.4GHz RAM: 32GB Pipe: 100m/20m cable Using: Python 2.7 / Ubuntu 16.04 LTS I am using a non-standard miner port to avoid conflict with litecoind.

When advertising nodes I think it's very important to differentiate between what share chain you are running on very clearly.
The two I am currently aware of are
- MainNet - Jtoomim fork
The two share chains are not compatible with each other, so if you explicitly set a -n to an incompatible node you will not submit valid work...
If both share chains survive for a while I will update p2pool.org to track stats for both, currently it's only for MainNet (the long standing main implemtation by Forrest).
