Miner has to run idle! REWARD IS WAITING FOR YOU

[gondel]

Hi guys,
Long story short, I need to run whichever miner is capable as background process which starts at booting the system (windows mostly).
I have an office with 15 computers which I want to mine while my callcenter is working on the other tasks.
Best would be whem someone boot the pc at the morning, the miner to start mining automaticly and hide from the main,screen.
Hope someone can help. I am ready to give a reward to the guywho will configure it! Will be happy to speak in further details with you guys!
Thanks

Please let me know what should be a fare price.
I think it is a matter of several words in the code.
Let's speak further, I am at ventral eu time.

have a look at the windows task scheduler, it should be able to do what you want and it will work with any miner you choose

Hi,
Thanks, but this has to be done for every user I have. Is it.possible to do it in the bat file? Also I want the process to run as hidden.
Please advise! Anyone who manage to help me will be rewarded!!!

[xleejohnx]

just use nicehash miner for windows
its the easiest and fastest way to do what you want

[Za1n]

What you ask really make no sense to me. Do you own these computers, if so why wouldn't you want to mine with them overnight instead when staff is not trying performing their essential job functions? Running a mining process in the background can degrade system performance, especially on minimally speced workstations that you would probably find in a setting such as a call center.

To answer your question, if you have administrative access to the workstations, you can do as felixbrucker suggested and utilize the task scheduler. Yes you can run for all users and run the process as hidden, a simple google search should give you all the help you need.

[mikhan]

nicehash miner is the simplest solution, it can hide mining windows and run when idle

[usmarine2141]

no it wont run as hidden, as all processes have a name, most likely it will be called cmd.exe, you would have to go to each computer and place the bat file on each computer, in the startup folder, or the application in there.

if you want to know how to do it, PM me.

Hi,
Actually the nice hash hidding function is not working good. It is only minimizng the console.
Best will be if claymore can be hidden when start mining. Also any good cpu miner will be perfect.
Thanks

Could you please write a little clearer what you need?

Do you want a miner just started at startup (or login)? For that a task scheduler is not really necessary.. Or do you want it only to start when the system is idle?
Do you want the miner run always or it should stop (pause?) when somebody is trying to work on that machine?
Do you want the miner have tray icon or be completely invisible?

Edit: I do have a helper application that starts as tray icon and you can start with it another application (provide command line with parameters). Some little modifications to start again with last configuration, then adding it (by hand or not) to Startup or to registry could be what you need.

Hi,
I want the miner to work 24/7.
My agents are using their computers only to log their comments after conversations. Almost nothing is used out of the computer pwoer, so basically this will just help with paying the bills.
Electricity is not a factor at the moment.
Thanks

You didn't actually answer my questions, but .. well.. I think that I can do this.
Should we continue in PM?

Hi guys,
Still looking for a solution of this.
Anyone with clear idea?
Thanks

[NeuroticFish]

I am still here. But you stopped answering.
So I am not sure if you really want anything related to mining or only a Skype address..

[doktor83]

Hi guys,

Are you going to CPU mine or GPU mine ?
If your answer is CPU, then lots of cpu  miners have a background mode, so no window will be open.

edit :
they are still visible in the processes list.

Hi,
I am still looking for the service. No need of any skype id if you can so the job.
I am really not sure if it was you who offered really high price for that. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Sorry for any typo as using my.old phone

[sirslayer]

i would assume your workstations dont have a gpu that is good enough so cpu mining is the only option if thats the case cryptonight algo would be your best for earnings on cpu mining .   

on window 10

Hold down the Windows key, and type R.
Type: shell:startup.
Click OK

and drag a shortcut of your mining program into that window and reboot

[JaredKaragen]

are you looking for a process to be started hidden in the background like a service?

The issue is;  you wanna make sure the process intensity is trimmed back enough to not lag the system for the day to day use....  Systems that are different and have different hardware will complicate that a little.

I think powershell has a way of starting a process hidden... gotta do some research.   I already have a miner batch that lets you control all the miners by updating a text file on the web with a command

I asked of more details since I wanted to know exactly what you want and if the application I made (and use) is good enough for you or need changes (and how big those changes would be).
We didn't discuss at all about any price. The price obviously depends on how much more work I have to do.
I am the one that preferred irc instead of skype.

[gondel]

hi guys,
So basically I know how to start a process on windows automatically on boot, btu the thing is that I want it to be hidden from the screen, no problem if it can be visible in the task manager.
Best will be if it is a cpu miner.
Thanks

[JaredKaragen]

I have it working flawlessly.  What's the reward?



First, create these files, and leave them all in the same directory:

hider.vbs

Code:

CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """" & WScript.Arguments(0) & """", 0, False

miner.bat

Code:

ccminer.exe -a skein -i 17 -o stratum+tcp://skein.mine.zpool.ca:4933 -u 1PHSDYvVp6HpqtuUPocK41DrdeHbbezaeP -p i7-920-GPU,c=BTC,skein,stats

Launchminer.bat

Code:

wscript.exe ".\hider.vbs" ".\miner.bat"

Verify it works.  Cause it does.  All you see is a quick blip of the text window while it launches the script.  The miner batch, and the miner app itself, will both end up in the hidden process container;  and will show up in the task manager as a background process.  Gotta use task manager to close the process.

If you don't want to be launching the initial batch, and instead want to launch just the command, you can do that;  but be sure to make a:  Full:path.to/ the batch file and .vbs script. (I.E. C:/Miner/miner.bat, instead of ./miner.bat)... as well as a Full:path.to/ the miner in the miner launch batch file.

To make auto-run at startup;  the simplest way;  is by the autorun folder in windows 7/8/10, etc..

In newer versions of windows it's hidden in a folder;  "C:/Program Data/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Run" or something extremely similar.  You need to enable hidden folder viewing, or for instance in windows 10, from the system root drive, type in cd progra~3, and it should be in there via the same hierarchy above if u wanna do it manually via my favorite "copy con" command.

Sounds good, but "hider.vbs" should be "invisible.vbs" i didnt test this couse i dont need it, but, if you test it and doesnt work, pm me, i have a real solution for you. with PoW.
Wont post it here couse of third party software licenses.

[JaredKaragen]

typo corrected.

Thanks =)   forgot to change it both places.

I tested it and it works fine as intended.  Using my manual control batch implementation, I had an instance of ccminer in the background that would automatically restart if you closed it.  Nothing on the UI past the task listed in the task manager as a background/windows process.

I already sent him a code in vbscript and he can't run it... access denied stuff..

[JaredKaragen]

I already sent him a code in vbscript and he can't run it... access denied stuff..

with proper user access on the system, shouldn't be an issue to make this work.

If you are trying to circumvent the basic system authentication and other safeguards for people not running apps that aren't supposed to;  well, that's getting into the behavior and actions of malware and viruses...  Modifying and starting background processes is a malware heuristic; 'tis why it will need administrator priv.... 

so if you wanna do a third party solution to circumvent the systems;  I won't do that part for you...    If you know how to access the hidden C$, D$, etc shares;  you should already know how to accomplish it.
This link will explain it better than I did.

i don't know what and WHY are you talking about this to me, but OK, suit yourself
I just wrote he has some problems with running vbscripts on his machine

[sirslayer]

i think he was saying that if he dont have the admin rights from the get go maybe he dont own the pc .. maybe he was looking at advice to hack into it ..

hello

How far did you go with this? I'm interesting too. I found this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1939946.0

but it's not working. Plus, I think you can't adjust number of cpu cores, its only work with one or two? Does anyone know is there something similar to this miner, but with more options to adjust?

thanks

I made myself a program in c# that runs in tray and starts the (CPU) miner in a similar way like the .bat file would do.
I didn't accept OP's price (counter)offer and he didn't answer anymore, so I don't know what is he using now.

IMHO OP wouldn't pay to begin with.

A solution was posted above; and met requirements; and was 100% open source.


Choosing a # of cpu cores to use (even what specific cores) can be done with the miner app's launch string itself.  At one point when I was mining xevan, I would have the process limited to all the free cores, and bound all the system processes that I could to two of the cores....   it seemed to work fine, but it took a long time to find out what setting to use (trial and error) to use the amount of cores in the forced mode I wanted.  Use the cpuminer --cpu-affinity flag, and start with 0x0 and work your way up watching core usage.

[Turkish88]

i can try release the cpu miner, for monero example, wich mine only when computer iddle and when operator move mouse process kills.
what the reward?

[clems]

Do you realize you asking how to create a hidden service ?
If all computers are yours so what's the point of hidding the service?

Anyway:
Create the service with a name such  "Microsoft Service Provider" or anything who looks not suspicious.
Add this service as dependencies to another services. (ask google for that)
Put bat and all exe files in c:\windows\system32\

Done.

But if you want something better you have to create your owne (exe files) from the bat file you create, rename miner 'exefile" ..... Metasploit should do the trick.

A yes some antivirus will not really like that
