I just have a question regarding operating systems, which system is the best to run the p2pool node on I have a Mac and a Ubuntu the Mac has 4gig RAM the Ubuntu has 2 gig?
Doesn't matter really. I'd go for whichever has the SSD. M Non of them have SSD the Mac is 2009 Mac mini Ubuntu machine is about 4 years old both are duel core intel CPU and both 64 bit OS, I have just heard Ubuntu runs a lot better. Swap out the HD on the PC for a small SSD (or add SSD as second drive). 120 GB should be plenty you can get those for around $60 on sale.

Is there a notable difference when using a ssd vs hdd? It's better to use one for the blockchains and os? Much faster/ effects hw latencies how much? Would you advise someone running a private p2pool node to buy one?
Thanks!

Yes it appears to have a big impact on latency. I don't think it matters much for the OS but it does matter for the block chains.

Do all of these coins have the "datadir=" option like bitcoin? I guess I could just check... Yeah, I'd say all of them except perhaps the first half a dozen or so... a lot of them just copy the source & only modify block times, confirmations, coins rewarded, etc... But even for those that actually do change something meaningful, there's no reason to remove the datadir option. That's been in the bitcoin source for at least two years..

Hey guys.. anyone have any extra GH/s to point to a new pool for little while? Wanted to see how it holds up. Server is hosted in Atlanta, GA - 2 CPU - SSD drives - Gigabit connection. I only have one S1 on it now, but more are on order. Anyone care to give me some ping stats? http://squashpool.com:9332/static/108.61.192.121:9332

Interesting.. thanks for the info!. Yeah.. I'm going to have to mess with the front-end. Still looking around. http://squashpool.com:9332/pings did come up.

I'm seeing this in my p2pool output, from both workers on my node:
> Worker xxxxxxxxxxxxx submitted share more than once!
One address is mine. All workers are Ants pointing to the same address. I'm assuming two ants submitted the same share? That's disconcerting if they are.

My Ant S2 does this. If I point it at my p2pool, I get the "submitted share more than once" messages. If I point it at a public pool, I get duplicate share stats. I don't think my S1s do it, but I'm not sure.

I don't think my S1s do it, but I'm not sure. I think it might have something to do with the little router running the mining software , its terribly under powered. It would have been excellent if we could run antminers with a real pc.

Anyone have any luck getting a proxy to work with p2pool? I've come to the conclusion I don't have enough bandwidth to run 10 Ant connections to an external p2pool.

I'm not sure as I've never done this - but I believe that you must also edit the networks.py file located in the p2pool/bitcoin folder also.....there may be some other files that need to be updated/edited - best bet is to ask raven_pl himself me thinks

IYFTech, you are correct - regtable69, you need to define the math.Object for your coin in both p2pool/networks.py and p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py.

t.y is it a case of duplicating the info from one to the other?
