[4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool

[Lucko]

slush what about changing fee for getwork? For loyal workers who switched to that so the pool is still alive?

[theowalpott]

Seems stratum is finally back up. Finally got a block pretty much as it came up! Annoyingly I was switching my miner back over from getwork to stratum.. probs down for 2 minutes so I probably missed out on a big chunk of the payout I would've got

edit: spoke too soon.. lost connection to stratum again

[nimasha]

Yeah p2pool is a nice fallback seeing how one of it's goals is to help prevent ddos. Just started using it today. if it's not too much of a network hog to keep the p2pool service running then it may be even a good long term failover pool to keep in the miners config.

It's not a crime to use another pool while you wait for a fix. HHTT allows you to mine without having to register an account or I'm currently quite liking p2pool.

I just migrated pool to another datacentre (longer story later...). There are three loadbalancers behind every of following DNS:

stratum.bitcoin.cz
stratum2.bitcoin.cz
stratum3.bitcoin.cz

So nine machines are filtering the traffic right now. Balancers behind stratum.bitcoin.cz seems to be dead from the attack, but time to time I see some accepted connection. Once the connection is established, it will be kept by the balancer (that's nice advantage of Stratum protocol).

Please try these URLs in your miners, some of them will, at least after few tries, work for you.

stratum3.bitcoin.cz is working like a charm for me!

Are these new servers DoS-proof now?  What's stopping the kid from attacking these servers?

DoS-proof server doesn't exist.

Not working. The only one which gave any signs of life was stratum3.bitcoin.cz:3333 and it soon after crashed cgminer.

Pool: change from "slush pool" to "other"

UN/PW it's OK

other servers have time outs.

And... it's down where I am..

set up the properties for calling the proxy as follows

C:\guiminer\mining_proxy.exe -sh stratum3.bitcoin.cz -sp 3333

and yea, tryed all 3 for the Stratum connections and they all insta-kick me :/

It appears that stratum3.bitcoin.cz stopped working after I restarted my computer...and none of the other are working for me either.

Slush, you are a very busy man, and I respect that. But any chance the server will be back up by tomorrow?

Servers are up all time, but they're flooded by an attacker.

[nybbler905]

I hate to say this....
Looks like a previous idea would be in order at this point.  You have our email addresses, send out the address for Stratum server per user and keep a copy of the list someplace.  When one of the random named servers gets hit, you know it's only from part of the mining group as far as the leak goes.  Rinse, repeat....

:/

[Hobsie]

Massive respect to you Slush.

I've still not managed to get a connection at any of those host addresses with Guiminer/Poclbm. Just keep getting (with all 3):

Edit: OK on stratum.bitcoin.cz with two workers now. I'm assuming it's just being super spammed right now. Slush, you're the man!

[solitude]

I'm still getting shares from stratum3 on miner1, but miner2 connected too late apparently. 

Mining on HHTT from miner2

im not managing any connection why did they hit slushes pool
