Any WinXP service installs that don't upload to SETI Q's?

I realize that nobody ever plans to have their SETI Queue crash or die, but it happens. I was wondering if there were any SETI service installs for Windows XP that report straight to Berkeley as opposed to using a SETI Queue. Most of the machines that I put service installs on are ones that I will have no further contact with. I would prefer having those machines stop producing for a week if Berkeley goes down instead of having them stop working forever when somebody's Queue goes down. Any info is appreciated.

Also, on a side note...I had some questions about Win9x SETI Driver service installs. I would like to know how you can configure SETI Driver to cache WU's in the service install. AND wondered if anybody is currently working on a SETI Driver service install for Windows XP. I think making service installs with SETI Driver and caching a week's worth of WU's would be MUCH more preferable to uploading to a queue. I don't need/want queue stats(I prefer Smokeball's anyways) and I want to deal with losing computers(on which I can't go fix service installs) when queues go down.

I havent tried the other so Im not sure if that will work, but it should.
 
In IsOs' Windows 98 service install to add more WUs to the cache just edit the install.bat file to add more folders. Where it says:

md C:\Windows\System32\sah
md C:\Windows\System32\sah\1
md C:\Windows\System32\sah\2

just add aditional ones like

md C:\Windows\System32\sah\3
md C:\Windows\System32\sah\4
md C:\Windows\System32\sah\5

and so on. You can also replace the setidr.cfg file with one from your own machine that has all the settings in it that you like such as no proxy and what not.
 
You mean the XP service install? I think the new Flex installer will do SETI Driver on XP when it's done.
