Don't put the full worker name [mph account name].[mph worker name] in the pool settings unless you tick the box to "ignore add to worker name on miner" on the Advanced tab on the pool settings. I highly recommend you just use the account name in the worker name, and let AM add on the rig name from the managed miner.
Ok I can't wrap my head around this.
I see it as 6 of one and half dozen of the other. Just a matter of preference.
If my worker name was the same for all of the pools for my machine it would make sense.
But since I name my workers accountname.coin i.e. Bubbajuju.Zencash or Bubbajuju.Zcash or Bubbajuju.Verge I would have to change the miner worker settings each time I switched pools.
So if I put the full worker name in the pool I can just switch pools on the miner.
Do you recommend your method for organizational means, or functional means or security means?
