@happytreefriends can you post your JSON file ? with the working failover ? I need to re-organize my mining space this weekend and it would be cool if I could have the failover going so I can move my geth machine to a different area.
I'm still baffled by the issues people have with Geth Desyncing , never experienced that ever I have a normal Comcast connection with 128 max peers.

@Marvell9 How many actual peers do you have, though?
I've found that no matter what I specify for max peers, it never goes about 12 or so. WTH?
I have some questions and I am a big noob here. Just a little bit of back ground I have been mining on pools for a while now but I want to connect 4 rigs together and min from geth I have been using eth miner so this is new to me.
1. download geth and sync (got this) 2. grab ether-proxy (I am assuming put it inside the geth folder? 3. figure out my rigs IP address I want to mine off and the IP address of that rig. I will call this rig miner1 4. take these settings and replace the IP address of miner1 5. Then can I take my normal command line and put it in geth so it would look something like this.
Geth.exe -G -F {miner1 IP address}/0xd0e9c10c3a976cff4be347ad01e011ac1e4fe862/rig4
also do I need to sync the block chain on ever rig I run geth on?
@happytreefriends thanks for posting that , only thing i see different is you have a lower block refresh interval than mine and upstreatream check is half mine as well
I didn't change the UpstreamCheckInterval time as I wasn't sure what that did, but have changed the difficulty in ethminer command-line to 100MH on every rig and since then they are hitting blocks like mad.
I just checked the stats page :
Block height: 1140826 Difficulty: 19,681,511,070,905 Next Epoch: in 138 hours Mode: SOLO

go get github.com/ethereum/ethash
I got this error

Failover works also. While the primary geth instance is restarting every 30 minutes, the backup geth instance took over right away on another PC.

@happytreefriends max peers geth option = with how many peers your geth node can connect. 50 is default, I am using 96.
1. download geth and sync (got this)
2. grab ether-proxy (I am assuming put it inside the geth folder?
3. figure out my rigs IP address I want to mine off and the IP address of that rig. I will call this rig miner1
4. take these settings and replace the IP address of miner1
5. Then can I take my normal command line and put it in geth so it would look something like this.
Geth.exe -G -F {miner1 IP address}/0xd0e9c10c3a976cff4be347ad01e011ac1e4fe862/rig4

My pool setup only the expected 2. (Bit less actually).

I just checked the stats page :
Block height: 1140826 Difficulty: 19,681,511,070,905 Next Epoch: in 138 hours Mode: SOLO
Blocks 24h: 6 Shares/Diff 24h: 34.19% Blocks 72h: 7 Shares/Diff 72h: 42.28%
It found 2 more since this morning again.
On another note. Since updating to geth 1.3.5 I have found 0 blocks.
lol Now it's payback for mining 7 blocks in 24 hours. Such are the joys of solo mining.
Do they only show up once they have either rejected or accepted a share?
Any ideas?
UPDATE: Forget it - just seemed that I needed to be patient....
Can someone explain me the
<diff>
value in the url ? ThanksEdit: Also i get lots of this "error" from ether-proxy
Unsolicited response received on idle HTTP channel starting with "t"; err=<nil>
Maybe you can explain me the diff value ?
Thanks regards
