I'm solo mining xpm with 10 computers using jhprimeminer -xpm option. However, all of them are connected to one server with Primecoin client.
I just realized that the all the computers are solving the same blocks.
New Block: 332966
The numbers are all the same across all the computers, and I just got an orphan block.
Are they solving different parts of that block, or are they solving the same thing redundantly, producing an orphan block? I hope it's the first case. Other wise, I'm just wasting the energy.

One way make sure that all the miners has unique work is to specify different addresses in the -xpm parameter.
