Solo mining with a stratum server?

[thebufenator]

I am wanting to be able to solo mine, while also running a stratum server for my other computers to connect to, with the ability to point the stratum to different wallets I have running.

Has anybody here done this?

What software did you use?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Slush's stratum proxy should work.

Slush's stratum proxy should work.

I believe that will only work connecting to another stratum server. I want to connect to my wallets for solo mining.

Unless there is something I am missing........I did already give that a go, works fine as long as I am connecting to another stratum, but wont connect to local wallets.

Why do you need a stratum server exactly? Getwork should be fine locally.

If you really need stratum then I'd suggest setting up a pool using MPOS then configuring it so it'll utilize stratum.

Yeah I guess I don't need to run stratum, but I am totally new to trying to get all my miners to run through one server.

Is getwork hard to setup? I am having difficulty in finding a tutorial

First off,what coin do you want to mine. Most of the popular ones like doge,ltc are pointless to solo mine now because of the difficulty increase.

Noble, Digibyte, WDC, TAG, IFC.....other lowish diff coins.

My main issue is setting up the linux machines to connect to one wallet on another computer, while also allowing easy switching when difficulty changes.

cgminer pulls longpoll data from other pools in a .conf, so if I have all of my wallets and pool servers for different coins in one .conf, it gets confused........

Have you figured this out? I've been having a hell of time trying to get my other rigs to connect to the "stratum server" for solo mining. All my rigs which are pointed to it are reporting pool 0 slow/down.

This is my batch file (wallet is set to port 8188)

mining_proxy.exe -o 127.0.0.1 -p 8188 -sp 3334 -gp 8332 -cu aaa -cp bbb

This is what I see

Then my miners have the following set (192.168.0.104 is the LAN IP of of the computer with stratum miner installed)

{
"pools" : [
{
"url" : "192.168.0.104:8332",
"user" : "aaa",
"pass" : "bbb"
},

And I get no connection.

Try stratum-stable. I use it and point it towards my wallet. Though does require an SQL backend... I use with MPOS.

Or...

Just config your wallet to accept connections from your rigs and off you go.
