     3  btcd supports the `getblocktemplate` RPC.
     4  The limited user cannot access this RPC.

     6  ## Add the payment addresses with the `miningaddr` option
     7  
     8  ```bash
     9  [Application Options]
    10  rpcuser=myuser
    11  rpcpass=SomeDecentp4ssw0rd
    12  miningaddr=12c6DSiU4Rq3P4ZxziKxzrL5LmMBrzjrJX
    13  miningaddr=1M83ju3EChKYyysmM2FXtLNftbacagd8FR
    14  ```
    15  
    16  ## Add btcd's RPC TLS certificate to system Certificate Authority list
    17  
    18  `cgminer` uses [curl](http://curl.haxx.se/) to fetch data from the RPC server.
    19  Since curl validates the certificate by default, we must install the `btcd` RPC
    20  certificate into the default system Certificate Authority list.
    21  
    22  ## Ubuntu
    23  
    24  1. Copy rpc.cert to /usr/share/ca-certificates: `cp /home/user/.btcd/rpc.cert /usr/share/ca-certificates/btcd.crt`
    25  2. Add btcd.crt to /etc/ca-certificates.conf: `echo btcd.crt >> /etc/ca-certificates.conf`
    26  3. Update the CA certificate list: `update-ca-certificates`
    27  
    28  ## Set your mining software url to use https
    29  
    30  `cgminer -o https://127.0.0.1:8334 -u rpcuser -p rpcpassword`
