that was after an additional restart. the proxy is running on port 3333 and 8332, do i adjust that in the cubes pool port?
It can take more than a few seconds after any reboot to start hashing.
That should be server port 3333 and 192.168.0.17 port 8332, yes? One Slush controls the choice of, the other you do.
Yes. You need to change that in the Pool Ports section.
So new settings should be
IP: 192.168.0.50
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
WEB Port: 8000
Primary DNS: 192.168.0.1
Secondary DNS: 8.8.8.8
Pool Ports: 8332,8332
Pool Addresses: 192.168.0.17,192.168.0.17
Miners user:pass: Current settings you have are fine but ensure your worker name and password are correct by logging into your Slush account and double checking, since we are being thorough now.
Also make sure 8332 now (not 8330) is opened in any firewall running on 192.168.0.17.
Restart the Cube and mining_proxy.exe after any changes just to be sure.
