Solo mining on multiple machines

[Cablesaurus]

If I want to solo mine on multiple machines, do I need to have the client installed (i.e. a different wallet) for each machine?

Tried poking around and didn't see a clear answer here, is there a way to keep them consolidated under one wallet automatically?

Thanks

Just run bitcoind on one box and that acts as your server - point the mining clients to it like you would deepbit or slush's pool.

In your bitcoin.conf make sure you have added:

Code:

rpcuser=usernamehere
rpcpassword=passwordhere
rpcallowip=192.168.1.* (or whatever is appropriate for your LAN/needs)
rpcport=8332

i just run separate wallets per machine, as I only have 3 and they do not generate that often.  I then manually send to the master wallet when I generate.

No you do not have to install the bitcoin client on each machine. You can simply use one of the separate mining programs (i.e. poclbm) on your client machines. Next pick one of the machines to run the bitcoin server/bitcoind that itself and all your other clients will connect to. You will have just created your own pool
