Oh. My. God. I'm starting to understand why they are so much cheaper than everyone else.
What is surprising is that for more than 2 years their service was impeccable: drives fail eventually and when this happened they were changed in less than an hour or at an agreed upon appointment. The network connectivity is good too. I guess they probably have problems with new staff doing hardware interventions.

Hi,
just joined your pool, right after the downtime. Now I cannot mine... worker rpc username/passwd is wrong. I double checked worker name/passwd and even created/deleted new workers. Didn't help. Any thoughts?

If you are the user I think you are then you have the username and workername right but the password wrong. I assume you are using the password you gave the worker on the worker page of the website? Make sure caps lock is off when typing the password, and if you use different keyboard language layouts that this isn't switched wrong. Can't really think of anything else.

Yeah, this happened with an ISP I was using. They were suddenly completely incompetent with lots of downtime. I finally gave up and switched ISP. Crossing my fingers for the disk replacement friday though.

Ah you are not the user I thought. Actually there are no failed logins from you in the logs. Perhaps the miner needs http:// in the URL? I haven't tried ztexminer myself. What error message are you getting, exactly? gr0bi42_01:xxx -> no getworks
That's the way it should look, although I believe I also made it work with a period instead of the underscore if I remember right, because some pools use that too. Part if the beauty if bitminter is its dead easy client...try it
Sadly it doesn't support ztex FPGAs yet. I also don't know if I will have time to add support for them before ASICs are out. Not sure if it will still make sense then, but perhaps.

They put the good disk (serial number verified) back and my arrays are synchronizing. So at least they don't throw disks away or in a big pile of "replacement candidates" when they remove them from your server. I could have reinstalled this server, it's mostly a drbd slave host, but damn I would have been pissed off.

Cross-posted from Newbies section: Been mining at bitminter since a little while now, and it seems the pool is down atm due to a disk failure. I cannot reply on the ad-hoc topic, being just registered, but wanted to offer them to help with a backup server the time they can put the production one back online. If a moderator comes this way, maybe he can move my post or merge it with this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=27062.1660 . Regards, Gled

It seems that the site is down and my miners have stopped. Mining on another pool for tonight, but will be back tomorrow.
Since I have yet to try out any miner other than BitMinter, and my miners were idle, I kind of cheated to mine on a different pool last night. I opened my hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) and set mint.bitminter.com to resolve to one of the IP addresses for mine2.btcguild.com (107.21.113.86). The idle BitMinter client immediately asked for new login credentials. I had signed up at BTC Guild as WhitePhantom, so I just had to change my worker name in the BitMinter client to "1" and the password to "123". The BitMinter client started mining on BTC Guild, although I was getting about a 10% reject rate for whatever reason. Still better than being idle, though. I came back over to BitMinter after about 4 hours and am glad to be back. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

yea, one of my miners was kicked off, dont know what happened. all i did was look for all ports and it was found and started mining again... Also, one of my miners that is flashed to run slower than another is actually performing better than the faster one, go figure...

I spoke to Sonny about a card in one of my mini-rigs that fluctuates between 200MH/s and 1440MH/s (I've also tried the slower firmware; the issue remains). He said it's almost definitely a USB issue and to try moving the USB cable for that card to a different port on the USB hub or to even try hooking it directly up to a USB port on the host computer. When I eventually get around to doing that, I'll post back about what I found.

@all, thanks for the support. It was my fault. The URL was wrong. I forgot to put "http://" in front... (made a copy&paste of "mint.bitminter.com:8332" from the account page). Now 6 of my Quads are pointed to Bitminter...
