Thanks,
Yes the switches were a typo, was tired this morning.
I got the rpc response, so bitcoin is running in server mode, I set the switch in the .conf file.
In the conf file I set the port to 8332. I assume the port you set for the Diablo command line is for the bitpool? In this case it's 8334 for bitcoinpool.com.
The error message below I assume is then for the *remote* bitcoin server in the pool? I can't think what else I'm doing wrong
Error: Can't connect to Bitcoin: Bitcoin disconnected during response
Getting 80K plus hashes now, assuming I get it to work.
Yes, my miner refers to whatever it connects to as Bitcoin. Your -r should be 8334. My miner does not read any conf files, thats for Bitcoin itself only; which if you're connected to a pool, it doesn't matter.
