I posted this back a month ago in this thread in reply... maybe this will help again?



What are you trying to mine at nanopool?  I'm assuming it's either Monero or Electroneum since you are asking about XMR Cast Vega.

Cast XMR is built into AM, so I would try with this mining software first.  When you setup your pool information in AM for nanopool, the server URL should be:

xmr-us-east1.nanopool.org:14444

Change the "us-east1" part to your region's server URL.  See here for the other region server names:  https://xmr.nanopool.org/help

If you are mining ETN, then lookup the server and port name here:  https://etn.nanopool.org/help

The worker name that you put into the pool definition for AM is going to be different depending on what kind of wallet you are mining to.  The easiest to setup looks to be to your local wallet.  It has the format of ADDRESS.WORKER so your worker name would be your Monero or ETN address only.  On the Managed Miner is where you tick the box to append the worker name to the pool worker name.  So if your worker name in the pool definition is ABC123, and the appended worker name in the Managed Miner is RIG1 then AM will put those two together to be ABC123.RIG1 which is the format that nanopool is expecting for mining to your local wallet.

If you are mining to an exchange or a local wallet that requires the payment ID, then you append that to your wallet address in the pool definition.  So, the pool definition worker name  would look like:  ABC123.PayID  And then you still append the worker name from the Managed Miner of RIG1 so that AM will put it all together to be ABC123.PayID.RIG1

If you need to add an email address, then you put that in the Managed Miner worker name appending.  So if you had the pool definition worker name of ABC123.PayID  and then your Managed Miner worker name was RIG1/emailaddress@mail.com then AM will put that all together as ABC123.PayID.RIG1/emailaddress@mail.com

The pool password doesn't seem to matter so you can put an x.
