Mining Monero on Ubuntu 14 and above

Replace WALLET_ADDRESS with your own Monero wallet's public address. The "-t 2" option determines how many of your CPU threads will be used for mining.

1. sudo apt-get install git libcurl4-openssl-dev build-essential libjansson-dev autotools-dev automake

2. git clone https://github.com/hyc/cpuminer-multi cd cpuminer-multi

3. ./autogen.sh

4. CFLAGS="-march=native" ./configure

5. make

6. sudo ./minerd -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://pool.minexmr.com:4444 -u WALLET_ADDRESS -p x -t 2

Mining Monero on Fedora 24 and above

1. yum -y install git curl-devel libcurl glib-devel libtool 

2. git clone https://github.com/hyc/cpuminer-multi 

3. cd cpuminer-multi

4.  ./autogen.sh 

5. CFLAGS="-march=native" ./configure 

6. make 

7. sudo ./minerd -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://pool.minexmr.com:4444 -u WALLET_ADDRESS -p x -t 3

How to check mining status

SCP secure copy directly between linux machines

SCP : secure copy directly between linux servers. SCP runs on port 22 by default.

server1 = 192.168.0.10
server2 = 192.168.0.11


Syntax : scp -[options] username@server1:/path  /local_path

Options :

p = Speed of connection
r = Recursive
v = Verbose details
C = Compression
l = Bandwidth Limit (l -500)
p= Port

root@server2:/tmp# scp -pr root@server1:/root/test /tmp
test1                                         100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00
test2                                         100%    0     0.0KB/s   00:00

Password less authentication in linux

Source : host A
Destination: host B


1. Run the below command for generating public and private key( host A)

ssh-keygen -t rsa

/home/username/id_rsa (private key)
/home/username/id_rsa.pub (public key)

2. ssh-copy-id -i  /home/username/id_rsa.pub host_B_ip_address



Alternate way:

* Copy the text inside id_rsa.pub file .

* Login into host B and go to /root/username/

and create new file "authorized_keys" and paste text copied from step 2.

*  Login into Host A to Host B password less.(ssh host B)


Simple:

Put public key(host A) to authorized_keys(host B)

Now Host A can login into host B without any password.
