As Colin says that is correct. I do want to add that you do need to set a password as well but that can be anything you want.


If you have multiple machines then you can set workernames by adding something to the username for each miner like this:

38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt.worker1
38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt.worker2
etc
So a point after the btx address and then a specific name (you can choose which) per miner

You don't need to do this but it is handy if you want to monitor different machines and how well they are mining because with these extended usernames you get stats per worker on the ckpool site.

If I give both miners the same BTC address, what happens?

I mean:
(Mineadr)
38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt

38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt

Without a period at the end as you said and without differentiating one from the other, can something happen?



That will work just fine, the pool will just assign a name to each miner itself
