I am attempting to mine using the minerd from this link:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0
the windows 64 version. I have a Geforce GTX 460.
When i run the miner i get this:

[2013-12-20 02:06:57] HTTP request failed: Failed connect to 127.0.0.1:9332; No error
[2013-12-20 02:06:57] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds

I am trying to join this Quark pool here:
http://www.coinmine.pl/qrk/index.php?page=gettingstarted

Under the getting started it says:
3. Configure your miner.

Settings for Stratum (recommended):
STRATUM PRIMARY:   stratum+tcp://mine1.coinmine.pl
PORT:   6010
STRATUM BACKUP:   stratum+tcp://mine2.coinmine.pl
PORT:   6010
Username:   Weblogin.Worker
Password:   Worker Password

If you use a command-line miner, type:

./minerd -a quark -o stratum+tcp://mine1.coinmine.pl:6010 -u Weblogin.Worker -p Worker password

I donlt know how to configure my miner. my question is how do i configure my miner. i have been looking everywhere for this specific answer but cant find any information on how to do this.
