Is anyone out there who are succesfully mine YACOIN with cgminer Huh

Is it possible to mine it with GPU or only with CPU ?

I cant get cpuminer nor cgminer to work.
Always get error message "no reply by empty server"
or
if hashes, then all package rejected, 0 accepted.

Help or advice (proper settings) needed !!!

Thank You in advance for ur replies...

YAC requires a special mining software because of the n-factor and the scrypt-jane algorithm. It can be download from here: http://yacointalk.com/forum/index.php/topic,350.0.html

Right now (IMOP), it is more profitable to CPU mine YAC and GPU mine something else. I'm been trading my GPU mined coins for YAC on cryptsy and bter.

Send a pull request for all of your recent changes when you have a moment. Block 400000 (!!!) is coming up soon so if anyone else wants to provide feedback or alternate solutions do it soon. If not, I'm going to merge sairon's changes - probably by the end of the weekend.

I'm in favor of sairon's fix at block 400,000. I think it will fix the immediate issue and will be easy for the community to implement. But I do think we should consider the following...

Our block target for YAC is one minute. This would imply that there would be a maximum of 720 POS blocks per day. As YAC continues to grow, this may not offer many opportunities for people to mint their transactions. Therefore, is it possible to....

1) Mint more than one transaction at once/per block? (i.e. Five transactions of 10 YAC w/ one coin-year each, in an unlocked wallet would mint in the same block, and be returned a single transaction (50.50 YAC)
2) Increase/remove the 'coin-age' cap? (I believe transactions stop gaining 'coin-age' after 90 days)

This would help reduce the number of PoS blocks generated by a single user and ensure they wouldn't loose any coin-age / 'interest' on their unspent transactions.
