During DynexCoin (DNX) mining operations, users may encounter Mallob registration errors, typically displayed as:

  • "Mallob registration error [0]"
  • "Mallob error: [Couldn't connect to server]"
  • "Error communicating with mallob/s"

These issues stem from specific characteristics of DNX mallob-server operations.

Understanding Mallob Technology

What is Mallob?

Mallob (Malleable Load Balancer) represents an advanced load-balancing system designed for parallel processing. Its primary function is to decompose complex computational tasks into manageable parallel workflows.

DNX3

Technical Architecture

The system employs a sophisticated networking architecture featuring:

  • Distributed task management
  • Flexible parallel processing
  • SAT (propositional feasibility) problem-solving capabilities

Implementation in Dynex

The Dynex platform implements Mallob technology through its neuromorphic computing system. Within the DNX network, mallob servers function as distribution nodes, allocating tasks among pools and users who provide computational resources in exchange for DNX rewards.

Resolving Mallob Registration Errors

Primary Solutions

  1. Verify script/batcher configuration accuracy
  2. Implement backup mallob server addresses
  3. Configure proper pool addresses

Example Configuration

For SRBminer-multi, include multiple backup servers: 

--mallob-endpoint http://mallob.neuropool.net:8081, http://mallob.eu.neuropool.net:8081, http://mallob.us.neuropool.net:8081

Important Considerations

  • Avoid using exchange addresses for mining rewards
  • Consider using zergpool for flexible payout options
  • Set system timezone to UTC if experiencing connection issues
  • Allow sufficient time for initial connection establishment

Alternative Mallob Servers

Multiple server options are available:

  • dnx.us.ekapool.com
  • gomallob.mineradnow.space/224
  • minenice.newpool.pw:1500
  • mallob.mine.bz
  • 8.222.182.46:8081

Best Practices

  • Implement proper timeout settings
  • Use appropriate wallet addresses
  • Configure multiple backup servers
  • Monitor connection stability
  • Consider network conditions during peak times

If issues persist despite these measures, the problem may lie within the Dynex network infrastructure itself.
