Hello all!

New here, but not new to mining. I was a relatively early miner of bitcoin and I did fairly well with that a couple years ago. Smiley

Thanks to WolfO for this miner. I have recently complied it and got it running on Ubuntu 16.04 with AMD RX 470 using AMDGPU-Pro 16.50 driver.

It's working pretty well so far:

I am considering buying a couple more cards and putting them in other systems in my house (daughters' computers) and I obviously I want to mine with those too.

Some pools seem to allow you to differentiate between individual miners so that you can see separate stats for each one. Dwarfpool, for example, states:

"You can determine your rigs separately for better vardiff, lower rejects and detailed statistic. Use workername: WALLET . WORKER-ID"

Would this work with Wolf's GPU Miner? Would I just change the xmr.conf file and append a worker-ID number after my wallet address, like:

"user": "47HpEzStPJGjUyRbj6DXJyN993s3busRLjVxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxFgvQNizy9urPytC4tJB6sf yeuUKk1qZy.123",

Also, does this work with all pools, or just with ones that specifically support it?

Thanks in advance for any help.
