Mining with a GPU

Post by rowbot »

Is this possible using namecoind?

Would I just point a Bitcoin GPU miner at it somehow? If so, how?

You need to configure a different port if you want to use both.
On linux, you need to edit "~/.namecoin/bitcoin.conf" and configure 3 lines :

Code: Select all

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rpcport=8336
Then, use these settings in you miner.
Example with minerd :

Code: Select all

./minerd --url http://127.0.0.1:8336/ --userpass user:pass --threads 2 -a sse2_64
NamecoinID: id/khal
GPG : 9CC5B92E965D69A9
NMC: N1KHAL5C1CRzy58NdJwp1tbLze3XrkFxx9
