pools are great for constant returns,  but it feels so nice to get whole blocks. I'm mining on 3 threads at 1kh/s and my third block took 5 hours, 4th took 17minutes, gotta love probability.
ok, I'll give it a try. But I need to make sure: I am using external minerd.exe so should I uncomment gen=1 in litecoin.conf or not ?

here is my working litecoin.conf i also use minerd with the supplied .bat
testnet=0
server=1
rpcuser=miner
rpcpassword=litecoin

block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493

#Uncomment this if you want to have the client mine for you.
#gen=0

#Change this if you want to use a different rpc port for mining
#rpcport=9332

#Only uncomment this if you are running litecoind (not Litecoin QT)
#daemon=1

I'd be willing to exchange every LTC for 4 TBX if anyone's doing that.

Auto update is unsafe, because i (or someone else) can push out a malicious update. It's better if each user decides for themselves whether or not to upgrade.

So.... Is this one a malicious update?  Wink

Litecoin pool. Consider it experimental right now , and toss a core on it and register real quick. It worked perfectly on the testnet. Now it's giving me a longpool every minute exactly, and I haven't had a share in 15 minutes from one computer. Stats are all reset and it is pointed to the production server.

Give me some feedback and I'll go from there.

I think the worker user/pass is not <LTC_address>_a:a, <LTC_address>_b:b but <LTC_address>_1:1, <LTC_address>_2:2 and so on

Typo on the worker page, it's _1 and password 1, not letters sorry.

Still something wrong with stats - I've been mining for 10 mins but no stats (still 0 active workers), then it logged me out

Check my past history and see if you trust me. If you do, then you should upgrade to the latest binary.

I would suggest that everyone build their own clients from source if they are able to.
And you can easily see from the source that nothing malicious was added to the bitcoin code:

coblee, can block locking be done via signed file so recompiling the client can be skipped?

While reading what I wrote, use the most friendliest and relaxing voice in your head.

I suggested this over IRC but got a lot of pushback. My suggestion was that I can use the alert system to send a message to all clients with a new locked block. But people were worried that I might abuse this privilege, so I didn't do it.

Another option is to be able to modify the config to add new locked blocks. So I can publish to the forum what I considered a good block hash and everyone can add it to their configs. Problem with this is people will make mistakes and cause their clients to do a wrong lock. Or they will attempt to do their own locking thinking that that would protect them. And this might cause them to fork their own chain. So it could get pretty messy.

So for now, we will stick with new source/compile/binary.

How many shares did you submit? Stats aren't updated, because there are not submitted blocks.

I've had 3 computers hashing at this for an hour and no shares... somethings wrong.

I recompiled everything, even switched back over to the testnet but no one is on it for me to see if it still works there. All I did was remove testnet=1 and added the nonce and stuff and restarted everything. I updated to the latest versions of litecoin, nothing.

I don't know what the difference between testnet and litecoin main is, but the pool isn't working.

Anyone smarter than me I'll share a % with you if you can help me get this running. I don't know what to do from here though. I've recompiled pushpool from artforz and litecoin with no additional positive response.

Does solo mining work for you?
Are you running litecoind with daemon=1 and server=1?
