Setting Up Peercoin PPC Mining

I wanted to start to pull together resources for mining Peercoin, in particular, setting up hardware to solo mine (with the obvious disclaimers about difficulty and anticipated productivity) and pool mine. Pool mining is easy to describe, because there's a whole host of resources to point people towards and to consolidate/update.
5 USB Antminer U1 + Rosewill 10port Hub + Fan. Peercoin (PPC), Terracoin (TRC), and many more SHA-256 coins. Hey i set up one antminer and it worked perfect. How to earn more PPC using PoS blocks. Many miners don't know what this is and how it works, so I'll try to explain in simple terms. Proof of stake is a method of securing the network.

Solo mining, on the other hand, isn't well described, particularly for Peercoin. Does anyone have experience setting up [font=courier]ppcoind[/font] in server mode to mine against?
Or, alternatively, can you point me in the direction of a good tutorial for setting up your own Peercoin pool where I can adapt it for 'solo' use? Thanks in advance! I've spent a lot of time - WAY more time than I should have - trying to get an R-box mining solo without success. I've tried this on Windows 7 and 8. PPCoin.conf: server=1 listen=1 daemon=1 rpcuser=user rpcpassword=password rpcallowip=localhost rpcport=9902 cgminer.bat: cgminer.exe -o 127.0.0.1:9902 -u user -p password I only get a message saying waiting for work from the pool, then cgminer quits.
Does anyone have a working solo mining setup Windows 7 or 8? I've used this exact configuration (except for the port) for a couple other coins and it worked fine. I'm at a loss what the problem is. Web searches haven't turned up anything specific.???
Willy: That depends on your mining client. If it's expecting stratum answer from the peercoind, it won't get it. I didn't use stratum parameters, but your post did jog my mind to look at the cgminer documentation. It occurred to me that while I've had working solo configurations for other coins I was using sgminer, not cgminer. I was able to get going using the Bitcoin solo example. This is working for cgminer on Windows 8.1. Copy this to Notepad, name it PPCoin.conf (make sure to save as All files and not text) and save to%AppData% Roaming PPCoin.
Server=1 listen=1 daemon=1 rpcuser=ppcaddress rpcpassword=password rpcallowip=localhost rpcport=9902 (use your own PPC wallet address and your own password) Copy this to Notepad and name it ppcsolo.bat (save as All files, not text, and you can name it anything but make sure it has the.bat extension), and save it in your cgminer folder. Cgminer.exe -o -u ppcaddress -p password Use the PPC address and the password you used in your. Vertcoin VTC Mining Income. conf file. Wait for vast riches.:)) Thanks everyone.
