configure kncminer for altcoin

[Zaghomat]

I'm trying to mine alt coin with a jupiter.

I put for exemple stratum+tcp://un.coinmine.pl:6200 in thee pool url and then I put worker name and password but when i click the apply/ restart button, it reset to the old configuration.

I tried with different pool, same problem.

Why would you want to mine Unobtanium (UNO) coins ?
It's not profitable versus BTC. Nothing is : http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency/?sha256

I'm just trying. It might be unprofitable now but I bet that in 1 or 2 difficulty jump alt coin will be more profitable.

How do we set up the KNCs to mine alt-coins? Care to elaborate?

Download PPcoin Client
Install PPcoin client to a windows PC
Run once ppcoin client and quit
If your PC is Windows 7 goto Users/your user name/AppData/Roaming/PPcoin and create ppcoin.conf as follows

rpcuser=anyname
rpcpassword=anypassword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=your pc ip
rpcport=9902
daemon=1
server=1
listen=1
gen=0

Then restart your ppcoin client and let download the whole block chain.
After that goto your miner and point to
your pc ip:9902
anyname (as above in ppcoin.conf)
anypassword
Restart cgminer, ensure via ssh that is working and hashing and wait
Average block finding time is 4-8 hours for a Saturn (each block equals to 0,41 BTC)

That is how to solo mine PPCoins.
For the rest, nobody posted about it.

Should I expect 12-16 hours on a mercury?  wow thats pretty sweet.  Im getting .21 since the diff jump for 24 hrs on btcguild with 160 GH (has 20 GH of other stuff too)
