Re: Is 100% rejection normal?

Hello,

Thanks for the response, but unfortunately it doesn't help at the moment either  Sad

The credentials should be good, as I can use the GPU miners with the same credentials I reserved for the CPU only miners.  I do have 4 registered workers (2 for GPU miners that work great and 2 for the CPU miners that despite constant computation have all shares rejected; except for the couple I just verified with a GPU miner in a matter of minutes).

I appreciate the suggestion also to try a different client, but I chose cgminer for the CPU mining machine since it appeared to be a reasonable option for them.  They are both GNU/Linux servers that don't have graphical displays installed and have some firewall issues not worth discussing here, but in short, GUIs are out of the question.  I have also tried poclbm, and while it's much slower than cgminer, it also never had shares accepted.  I originally thought that was because the hashing speed was too low, but I stopped thinking that when I saw that cgminer was reporting a higher hash speed than my slowest GPU.

I'm surprised no one has run into this!

The stats of my latest run make me ill:

----------------------------------------------
$ ./cgminer -a 4way -o http://mining.bitcoin.cz:8332 -u USER -p PASS
