Re: [Datacoin] Pool developer needed! Rewards and discussion

I think you can point jhProtominer at Datacoin-qt, not sure.

If anyone wants to try:

Help -> Debug console -> Console and type in: setgenerate true 0

Then point the miner at the ip:port.

Will test aswell soon

I tried to point jhProtominer at a local datacoind without luck. I am trying all this stuff on linux CLI, and don't have a QT wallet built yet as I am on a mac.

All the versions of jhProtominer that I found are trying to use the "x.pushthrough(xpt) protocol" , I thought DTC required the getwork method now?

just now - yes, only getwork.

Would that mean that a whole new miner has to be built or....?

No, the first bitcoin pool miners were made with getwork.
But i am pretty sure we can use a x.pushthrough proxy for mining. More efficent, and i am looking into 'getblocktemplate' instead of getwork. It is more easier to use, and provides more information.
