How to Configure an Origin Pool

1. Make sure that you have downloaded the latest Origin-#.##.#-BETA-shaded.jar from https://bitbucket.org/backspace119/ki-project-origin/downloads/.

2. Once you have made sure that you have the latest Origin client .jar file, rename the file from "Origin-#.##.#-BETA-shaded.jar" to "Origin.jar". (If you do not see the .jar file extension in your Windows Explorer, do not worry. Just rename this file as "Origin")

3. Now, you will need to create the .bat file to host a "Pool Relay." To do this, right click inside the Origin folder where the .jar file is located. After right clicking, select "New" in the drop-down menu and then select "Text Document".

4. Once you have created a text document in your folder, right click the file and select "Edit".

5. Copy and paste this into your new Text Document: java -jar .\Origin.jar -pr and save the file as Pool Relay.bat and change the file type from ".txt" to "All Files" before pressing OK.

6. Now, in order to allow connections to your pool, you will need to forward Port 29999 on your router. If you do not know how, please google a tutorial as every router is different.

7. You can now double click Pool Relay.bat to host your own pool. Once the pool relay client is launched, anyone with your IP will be able to connect to your pool and begin mining.
