Title: CPU mining GLD
Post by: bdean602 on April 10, 2014, 09:06:59 PM
Sorry if i didn't search good enough; or if I posted this when I was trashed already :)
I have a large amount of CPU 35GHZ in one DC and umm I don't even know, maybe more than that in another.  I use this CPU to mine RIC and DOGE and a few others, does anyone suggest the best way to do so for GLD? I use Linux on the boxes.  Ubuntu but i have Cent OS images that deploy just as fast, templates and all. (so I can deploy a new box in like 2 mins).

Anyway, I tried BFGMINER with --scrpty and -S cpu:auto last night and it wasn't registering on the pool..
Any ideas
?
Best Regards to all,
B

i have never done much cpu mining, just gpu with cgminer but one thing make sure you type in your settings for your miner, pool, and worker info perfect because one little mistake could stop your miner from working

I can also confirm that minerd works with:

./mierd --url=stratum+tcp://url.goes.here:port --userpass=mineruser:minerpass
