I'm trying to find a Sha256 coin to mine, I have two Asic Block Erupter 330 mh/s. The coin doesn't have to be worth anything or on any exchanges. Anyone know of any coins that use the Sha256 algo that are easy to mine?

Check new coins releases to find a coin to jump on and make some profit. Right now it seems that all SHA-256 coins are equal to or less profitable than mining straight bitcoin.

He can't, he only has two block erupters.

Which algo do you recommend? Scrypt? Or am I late to the party for that as well?

Don't listen to the haters. I mine a lot of sha256 coins, have a lot of fun, and make some profit too. For example, eMark was really hot last week-- it was trading for .00001 BTC at one point. Bitcoin has been at the top of the heap this week, but nothing wrong with mining Bitcoin for a while, and that always changes. A new one shoots to the top daily or weekly; just keep an eye on Coinwarz.

In fact the only reason I stopped mining eMark is because I can't figure out how to solo mine on my Linux box. I use the exact same config files as Windows, everything is as it should be, but I always get "No servers were found that could be used to get work from." If anyone can give me a hint as to what's going wrong it'd be much appreciated; here's the Stack Exchange post with all the details.

Make sure you have your miners IP listed on the line in your .conf that says rcpallowip={IPaddress}

Money can be made by quickly jumping on altcoins using SHA256.  It's getting harder now with everyone renting rigs though

If this one ever launches with its mystery launch time it might be worth mining.
