two machines

[Proulx-S]

Hello, I am trying to mine one linux machine (A) and run monerod and p2pool on another linux machine (B) within the same network. I have seen some questions and comments about that, but I am still confused about were to inputs IPs and Ports.

My best guess is to run the following: on machine B ./monerod --zmq-pub tcp://127.0.0.1:18083 --disable-dns-checkpoints --enable-dns-blocklist ./p2pool --host 127.0.0.1 --wallet YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS and on machine A ./xmrig -o 192.168.1.BB:3333 where 192.168.1.BB is the LAN of machine B.

I thought the xmrig on machine A would reach out to p2pool's stratum server on machine B. Seems like B is listening, as p2pool log says "StratumServer listening on 0.0.0.0:3333". But xmrig initiates, i.e. it runs until

* COMMANDS ...
* OPENCL ...
* CUDA ...

but then nothing on machine A...

And p2pool on machine B says:

StratumServer status
...
Connections = 0 (0 incoming)

and

P2PServer status
Connections = 10 (o incoming)
...

I must be doing something wrong but feel too confused to continue trying everything I find online :-P Anyone can help?

Thanks in advance!

--zmq-pub tcp://127.0.0.1:18083 you need to change it to --zmq-pub tcp://0.0.0.0:18083 (and open port 18083 in the firewall) so p2pool on the second machine could connect to it.

Oh, I didn't read properly. So you run both monerod and p2pool on machine B, then your command lines are correct. Double check that port 3333 is open in firewall on machine B.

I had my firewall turned off and it was not it

But thanks a lot for the quick confirmation of my commands @SChernykh !

To start fresh, I removed all port forwarding I might have set wrong and rebooted everything, and even reinstalled machine A since I noticed I had some general connectivity issues with it. Don't know what did it but it now works! Thanks!
