I tried solomining with older version of ccminer. It worked back then when Christian was still developing it.
@CapnBDL You can try this.
in the coinname.conf file put this
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=<coins rpcport can be found in annoucement thread>
rpcuser=<long random string of alphabet>
rpcpass=<another long random string of alphabet>
now in bat file put this
ccminer.exe <usual switches> -o 127.0.0.1:<coins rpcport can be found in annoucement thread> -u <long random string of alphabet> -p <another long random string of alphabet>
you have to make sure that rpcport, username & password are same in .conf and .bat file
Now run the coin wallet and get it synced fully and then run you .bat file
Let me know if this works. Anyone please point out if i made a mistake somewhere, its been a long time since i solomined.
