what are you guys using for "open" cases with 4 cards?

I'm doing nothing, just putting a case fan on top of the 4 blowing against the small area between the cards. Seems to do well.

Re: How to find "Tom Williams" ...

on 04/08/2011, 05:07:48 UTC
was the entire site really behind tor? if that is the case, i wish you guys the best of luck to find him,
It had a tor hidden service, but was also reachable through normal https... otherwise we wouldn't even know the IP address and hoster.


then what is the problem. the FBI should be able to get his name and such np. unless he used fake details for registration.

That won't work if he was born with a fake name.

Why are you guys still talking about that? Haven't we establish the owner is over 18?

No, we've only had the owner say he was over 18.

I'm not posting this because I don't believe him; I'm posting because we just had another identical service disappear with a  lot of people's coins.  This type of site asks that you deposit valuable commodities with them - surely it should be put under greater scrutiny than a mining pool or other service.  Maybe someone in the area could meet him for coffee, verify his ID, etc.  This way you would have a starting point for a lawsuit should anything happen to your assets.

As a community we need to learn from our mistakes.



I don't believe you are over 10 years of age, therefore I shouldn't take your advice.

Thanks for the update, but I'm curious why as a "banking institution" you wouldn't implement version control systems for your software and website, as well as incorporate a staged development and seamless update process, so you don't run into issues like having to recode your website in the middle of an update ...

Same question here...  Angry

Re: bitcoind.exe + (easyphp) or (Server2Go) or (xampp)
by
Chick
on 02/08/2011, 21:18:14 UTC
Hi,

Is there anyone who can give me step by step instructions on how to set up bitcoind.exe on an xp machine and spesifically how to use the bitcoin.conf file.

While https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Windows is helpful, I do not fully comprehend the information due to the language barrier.

When this is done, I would then like to access bitcoin using php running on either easyphp or Server2Go or xampp to verify send and received transaction and everything else that would be nice to know.

You are welcome to send me a pm.

Thank you,

Hamburger

Put bitcoind in a directory. Open up command prompt and navigate to the directory. Then type in 'bitcoind.exe -server'. Done.

Now you need to setup the bitcoin.conf to accept json api commands.

Code:
rpcuser=asdf
rpcpassword=asdf

#fill in this if connections aren't coming from localhost, this will make bitcoind listen to commands sent from that address
#rpcallowip=

I have no idea what easyphp or server2go is. They look like pre-configured lamp stacks to me. Now, download the json-rpc library and you can send a command to bitcoind like this:

Code:
require_once('the_library.php');
$bitcoin = new jsonRPCClient('http://asdf:asdf@127.0.0.1:8332');

//Same as bitcoind.exe getinfo
echo $bitcoin->getinfo();

So i just wanted to again point out that DWOLLA HAS TOTALLY AWESOME TSHIRTS AND THEY ARE TOTALLY FREE AND FOR THE FINAL BTC WIN.

I KNOW just like you, for the past week I too have been wondering WHEN IS DWOLLA GONNA COUGH UP THE BLING?

Re: MyBitcoin guys might NOT be thieves!!!

Maybe the web hosting can contact him (or eventually a relative) somehow? Perhaps he gave them a phone number, or through the payments he did they could reach his bank, I don't know.

Has anyone tried to contact leaseweb?

Things like these cannot be handled so well individually. They need to be organized investigations that involve law enforcement and at most, a warrant, before any self respecting hosting company would ever communicate private matters or even listen to you. Sorry, but this is the reality of the current legal business world.

The only way someone is going to help is to start getting evidence together. http://uabci.org/redmine/projects/mbci

I couldn't said it better. Cheesy

I laugh at people who think they can simply give leaseweb a call and tell them to restart a server, it simply doesn't work like that. You're not the owner, so you don't have authority under their hosting agreement for them to give you any service.

Simple solution folks. Try to get Leaseweb to reboot it. If he was smart, he made Apache a service and it should start on boot. It probably crashed for some reason. That is about all Leaseweb can do without physically breaking into server via console, etc.

Well, if he really was smart he would have a very simple script in the server to check every 5 minutes if all essential services were running, and if not, to (re)start them Wink
Webserver administration 101, really...  Roll Eyes

I bet most system administrators don't have that feature implemented. It's really easy with Monit.  Wink

Re: An address showed up in my wallet that is not mine
by
Chick
on 01/08/2011, 23:41:20 UTC
Is this even possible?
In my wallet I saw a strange address under "Your Bitcoin address:"
I keep all of my address organized, and I know I have never seen that particular one before.
I looked through both my sending and receiving addresses and it was not present.
More interestingly, I looked up the address in Bitcoin block explorer and it says the address does not exist in the network.

Its a new address, the client creates a new one everytime there are no more 'clean' addresses.

BTCGuild has been really good over the last weekend or so.The pool luck has been waaay positive......currently over 50 % for the last 24 hours and no fee.

For some reason I could have never signed up for Deepbit as the website was done and have been satisfied with my current pool.

The luck is inaccurate if there was a difficulty change within 24 hours.

Re: how can i use both cards?
by
Chick
on 01/08/2011, 09:46:40 UTC
sorry guys im new to this. is there some guide that you can point me to for my problem. i just bought a 5830 for cheap but i have a 4850. i would like to use both for mining. my 5830 gets about 300 mhash/s @935/500mem(cant go lower in msi afterburner) the 4850 is getting about 100 mhash/s if that. i want to mine with both to get around 400mhash/s until my other 5830s come in.

here is where im stuck. i have plug both cards in. the 5830 is plugged into a dvi>vga>monitor. the 4850 is plugged into a HDMI>tv/monitor. i did that because i read it has to be plugged in or use a dummy plug. i dont have any yet. now i had my settings set for the 5830 i.e. OC'd/fan speeds. now i cant use them. its as if the 4850 is there. i can still mine on the 5830 about 275mhash/s but on the 4850 its like 5mhash/s lol.

what do i do to fix this? thanks for the help in advance! also can i run 4x5830s on a corsair 750tx psu? im using a 710w kingwin cheapo right now until the other cards come in then ill switch psu from my gaming rig.

Um, go to device manager and see if the two VGA cards are showing up. Also, what are you using to mine? With most of the command line miners, you have to specify which card you want to mine on. On phoenix it's 'DEVICE=0' for the first card and so on.

I would go with a corsair 850tx v2 psu just to be safe.

I don't know if this would work or not... It would make the difficulty change after the adjustment lower.
