Hey everyone thought I would share… My first attempt at solo mining tried it out on fresh coin. Didn’t go so well… Had to try it the hard way.

Being a n00b I made several mistakes. I had the github build from DJM34 with the freshcoin algo (thanks!)

Compiled on Kopiemtu 1.4 ( Thanks JK_14)
 
4 X 750TI Evga SC.

Wallet was on Windows 7 64 tried mining from one machine (linux) to another (windows) on the same network.

This is where the n00b problems began (mistakes were all me).

First I had named the config file in app/roaming freshcoin.config.text found that mistake and changed to freshcoin.config after about one hour after launch I gave up and went with the pool route. About six hours in and much googling I found the file should be named .conf once fixed and working I went solo all night {(ya! my first solo attempt (nothing)}. Switched back to a pool in the morning all’s good. 

I don’t post often… I have learned a lot from all of you and wanted to share my experience and say thanks to all of you on this great forum, and for sharing your experience’s / information.

And a big thanks to all the developers for their contributions to cudaminer and ccminer (much appreciated)!
