hello macCompiler. thanks for putting the time in for us brand-newbians. when you have a moment could you look at where i'm at? i run your snazzy little program thusly:
RPCminer setup wizard
CPU based Bitcoin miner.
------------------------
Server host name or IP address: http://deepbit.net
Server port number: 8332
Miner username: username
Miner password: password

it remains this way ad infinitum. what is CURL?  i ran a test by putting in a gibberish use/pass and got the same output. i am able to long into deepbit's website with the username/password that i used here. see what i'm missing? by the way, if there is a good guide out there somewhere you'd rather i scour instead of bugging you with questions, don't hesitate to point me in its direction. good night.
Go to https://deepbit.net/account and click Create New Worker. This new login username and password is what you should put into the client.

The hostname must be specified without protocol prefix. So enter only deepbit.net and the port number 8223. I will make future versions work with and without the protocol prefix to avoid this problem.
