[ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - www.middlecoin.com

[zSprawl]

I've noticed that the EU server is mining totally different coins to the other servers (when it's working, it's down at the time of posting this message).

My understanding is the pool multi-mines. So while one person is on doge, another might be on cat. Thus people think we are changing all the time and mining different stuff.

How do you run Windows 7 headless?^^

Hello

Is middlecoin hacked?
since yesterday Statistic is damages and no payout!

Is there a security problem?

How do you run Windows 7 headless?^^

Simply start the pc without a monitor connected? I'm doing it on Win8, once configured and set up so everything starts automatically at boot time, it just keeps doing its thing

And use VNC instead of RDC.

Haha that's not really headless. I thought headless meant without a GUI. I highly doubt you can get Win7 without a GUI except for Windows Server maybe.

Fire up some MSDOS!

Why would you do that?

RDP is built-in and offers better resolution, file transfer, etc. Just needs to be enabled.

Because RDP screws up your temp monitoring. I use RDP only for my BAMT-based rigs, and TightVNC to administer the Win7 rigs. CGRemote for a quick overview at a glance.

Teamviewer works great for me.

Weird, is it a problem with the application(s) used or RDP itself?

Has to do with how RDP accesses the video drivers I believe. Try it. When I try to use TRIXX or see temp and fan speeds per GPU in CGMiner, I get nothing. VNC equivalents don't have the same issue. I've heard good results with Teamviewer as well, though I've not tried it.

Another vote for Teamviewer here... works great on Windows 7/8 as well as the BAMT distro of Linux (plus many other mining distros)

I've been away from the forum for awhile and have noticed several posts that make it sound like several new servers have been added (and a couple hundred pages worth of posts...).  I have the original and eu.middlecoin servers, could someone verify if the posts about some of the other servers are correct?

I understand fluctuations in WU and reject rate when starting out a fresh run of cgminer, but what Im talking about is fluctuations in hashrate appearing after running for 24 hrs. For example on a fresh run my 7950s get stable as a rock 640khs, but when I check them at the end of the day they are fluctuating between 590-635 constantly, I also thought I may be because of coin/difficulty changes, but the fluctuations continue even during a specific coin. One strange thing is that one of the cards doesn't seem to fluctuate at all and stays at 640, btw the rig Im talking about has 6 - 7950's in it, running Windows 7 headless. And all this fluctuation immediately stops when I restart cgminer. 

It's pretty simple. Your rig isn't as stable as you think it is. You need to tweak your settings to see what's going on. I bet you're seeing GPU usage % is fluctuating too.

You likely have one or more of the following going:
-interference between cgminer and a memory intensive CPU miner (PTS for example)
-your clock/voltage settings of one or more of your video cards is not recovering properly following a driver crash
-your OC isn't stable causing the driver crash in the first place
-your PSU is underpowered for the power requirements.

--------------------------------------------

Next thought.  Can everyone please stop referring to WU in terms of MH/s. WU is not measured in MH/s, it's measured in shares/min.

Next thought. It seems the useast server is having troubles. My miners keep failing over to the default west (middlecoin.com) server.

I can vouch for this too. CGMiner just freezes when using standard remote desktop. VNC works perfectly on all my rigs

WU/min and MH/s are the exact same thing, just slightly different units.

For Scrypt 1 WU = 655536 hashes. 1 WU/min = 1.09 kH/s (Different numbers are used in SHA-256)

Cgminer averages the WU and MH/s numbers differently, so they don't quite line up exactly on the display - but they are the exact same thing.

Share difficulty does not affect the WU number. However, share difficulty is measured in WU. So a share with 1024 difficulty needs on average 67,108,864 hashes to solve.

RDP plugs into the Windows graphics system the same way a real display driver does, except that, instead of being a driver for a physical video card, RDP is a virtual display driver.

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/rds/archive/2009/03/03/top-10-rdp-protocol-misconceptions-part-1.aspx

Windows RDP installs a virtual driver when you connect, and this messes with the order of the physical video cards.
This is why TeamViewer or VNC works, they don't mess with the video devices.

does anyone know the best way to remotely manage BAMT?
